Runnng 1 bar on street tune. No one in Okinawa will let me on their Dyno. Should be good for around 400RWHP or so. Next week the boost controller goes in and going to 20 psi.

Are my eyes playing tricks on me, or did you do a two-tone (grey/black) along the fishbone?

Since you have a FMIC, what's with the scoop?

The scoop was my first attempt at getting the heat out from my top mount setup. It seems to be working well with the raised hood. The paint was a whopping 4 dollars and done at my shop with a spray can by yours truly.

What octane gas do you have in Japan available and what CR do you have?

With the proper amount of money...what do you think the lmits of the m30 are as far as RWHP? I know you got 625 or so... have you heard anyone getting more. Looking at the VAC motorsport race head for $2600, a GTK 550, Tec3, and methanol injection. Thoughts? SOHC FTW!! :alright

wait you have a to457 with 42 pound injectors and you think you are running 450 rwhp? i hate to burst your bubble dude but i have 60 pounders and a larger turbo and on 20 psi i only made 400 rwhp not a shade over. the injectors wont support anymore. so i really dont think you are up around 450 rwhp.

The 450 will be with my new turbine( p-trim ex/.69AR, 60-1 comp wheel .70 A/R housing, 4" inlet 2.5 Out), larger intercooler, full 3" striaght pipe exhaust, and 20 psi. Just waiting for the time to put it on. Thanks for the info. Whats your tune? TCD kit was not for me.

red 240sx with a cracked windshield, missing a gascap, headlight, center grille, and rear bumper tearing a latest model trans-am with a 75shot of N0S apart like it was standing still = priceless.

Looks good!

How many people break rear end parts with high hp E34's? I'm starting to think that's the route to go! 5er's are fun anyways.

my tune was done by larry strouth on a tec3r.....tcd is just my hardware. strouth tunes many rediculous high hp american muscle cars, boat engines and dragsters. this guy can tune his ass off and he has done perfectly by me so far.

i have broken my diff before but mostly because it was old and neglected. I think you will barely get 450 with that turbo. I would get a much bigger turbo if i was you.

Putting in a T4 p-trim/60-1 hybrid this weekend. It is good for 30 PSI of boost. The car goes to exhaust this weekend for full 3" straight pipe exhaust. I will post pics of the new turbine mocked in on Saturday.
