Hey guys. Some of you may have noticed that I kind of just dissapeared off the forums a little while ago. Well, something happened that really knocked the wind out of my "car modding" drive. Me and a friend with a modified car were driving home, and going fairly fast(probably about 15 over). a...

Me and Mike(Miamieclipse) were talking tonight and we were thinking about how a 420a only dsm shoot out would go. what do you think the turnout would be? maybe have a class for turbo 420a's, have a nitrous 420a bracket, an all motor bracket and a stock bracket? that would be a feet to orginize...

Yes, me, the one who always downs the header is semi looking for one. now i figure i couldnt hurt when im spraying cuz i got a lot more air coming through. so im just wondering which ones for our cars has a 2.5 inch outlet, since my cat back is 2.5 inchthanks

I can either buy a used S-AFC I from a friend for $150 or get the Greddy Emanage for $385. im interested in the Greddy cause you can adjust timing, which i will need as my shot goes up. so what do you guys think? i got Intake, exaust, UDP, and a 65 shot soon to be 75 shot of zex wet. thanks

I just finished up my install of a Zex wet kit on my 2gnt. it was a crash course install that went suprisingly well. no body really had much experience with the wet kit on our cars because apparently its new. but its a very simple install. but im going to write this because the instructoin...

ok im putting together a custom turbo kit, with a T-25, and im using a GS-T smic. i need to have pipes made for this. but my question is where can i get the pipes, can a muffler shop make them for me? and what do i need to build into the pipe so that i can hook the BOV up to it? any pics of your...

Hey, i will soon be putting a home made turbo kit on my car, using a stock T-25 off of a GS-T. now i only want to run 7psi, but i think the actuator is set at somewhere around 13psi. upon some searching i have found that an MBC will not allow me to lower the boost past the stock level. so my...

Ok this is a really Noob question, and i swear im not one, but im confused. how exactly is it used? like i read the NX installation instructions, and it said once you hit WOT you should feel a big push in the power. So when armed, does the nitrous automatically go on when you hit WOT? or is it...
