sometimes being immature is fun, I think Marc knows I was just playin. i really dont give a damn what some people think I know cause I know what I know and people that know me know this and everyone that dont know nothing about what I know should know.. I just dont give a damn.. peace people.....

whats a T67?? nah seriously.... :read the thread dude..

nah too much effort, just lay the gate on its side

i was going to do mie like the one tao pictured but pretty sure it will hit on the stock intake pipe..

its a pity here isnt a side mount manifold in this price range with ex gate attahcment so we didnt have to chop housings..in fact all the side mount mafifolds Ive seen dont have one... There is a garrett gt30 style housing on ebay that has a cast in flange for a 40mm gate for around 400..

Howzabout I tune your face kent!!

yeah that would be very interesting.. it looks the same design as the HPI, the ebay ones are alot different in pipe design..Unless there is a HPI copy I dont know of.. ED..ok found em in UK..cheap too..

What manifold is that?? HPI..??

nice, ....light her up!!! I so want one of these now...

yeah i will do exactly that

from everything i have read, it is meant to be the best place for it, run it off at an angle less than 90 degree and it should have great boost control.. TS site says to keep the gate at least 100mm away from the housing though, away from the heat as much as possible Guess i will take my chances with it under a heatshield.... **Although this setup may work on paper i really have doubts as to its sustainability if it was running hot for extended periods..**

pipe i have is 46 Outside 40 Inside.. so i measured it up..and although it looks like ti will fit from the outside but when I measured the inside of the turbo housing, because of the thickness of the walls, I think a 40mm hole is going to be the limit as the inside of the housing just wont accomodate a 44mm hole. so even if i have a 44mm gate im only going to have a 40mm pipe feeding it.

yeah i want to cause its a very compact unit.. ..but tial comes with 7 different springs TS comes with 7psi only which means I need to buy more springs ill see how much i can score some for..

yeah i have some 40mm pipe it will just fit..44mm could be a tad too large.. 40mm pipe with 44mm gate, this is the dilemna im having..

i had a peugot 307 with NOS that could do 350kmph

just to clarify I was talking about the mazda 3 MPS not the 6.. im not sure which you are talking about checkbuzz, im assuming the 6

Firstly I would like to say thanx Toshi for your informative post and to JDM thanx for trying but sorry, car maintenance or not its still referred to in laymans terms as "TUNING".. Your average punter doesnt go in to a car workshop and say " Hi, can you please change my oil and filters, check my timing and gap my plugs" does he? He is more likely to go to a workshop and say "Hi, can you service and tune my car" He never asked about an intercooler and he also stated it was just for general purpose car so he probably isnt going to be driving it hard long enough to justify an intercooler I never really did and if I did it was at night when the air is cool and there is no traffic which is why I probably never had heat soak issues.alos noone has mentioned he should enclose his pod which would contribute to heatoak if not done.. . A couple of psi extra boost never hurts and I always change fuel pumps just cause the old ones are usually clapped out so I find it beneficial, though some may not agree..But many people I see spend up on intercoolers and such and totally neglect other parts of the car.. he also asked if changing to a pod would make noises and yes it would, now I apologize for my incorrect use of Homo terms such as dose and flutter but it will make a noise be it a whooossh or a tututu,, who really gives a rats ass they are generally stupid noises anyway unless the car is aweome.. Now I gave OP a simple answer to a simple question and if he walked into a workshop and asked for a tuneup they would know what he meant even if he didnt..but people in here it seems often like to assume others are not as smart or knowledgable as them and so they overcomplicate things to fuel their ego.. whos the knob who thought it was a good idea to revive this thread ....

must be the custom mercury

you can modify the intake cooler pipe.. or if you take the snorkel to a plastic welder and just cut one side off it and weld a ne side in..

your sards should do the job ..

I got fined for having one in my car

your doing it wrong.. PM sent with instructions..

yeah mine does same Rolls and i know its not clutch cause clutch isnt too old.. I know exactly what you mean too cause with a lot of older cars you can feel it when they break traction, but the skyline just sort of seamlessly goes from grip to slip to grip, its quite impressive actually..

so what other bits you got for it?

250-260. hopefully with full boost by 3500ish..dont worry you will love it..
