Message My current Z has Sport 600's and a bunch of other supporting mods(You can see my profile for them). I'm running around 18 psi boost at full boost at around 4500-4700 RPM. I have a NOS setup to help spool up the turbo's quicker. When used, Its a huge difference. Very Minimal lag. However, considering that I have a 20 lb. bottle and the price of NOS per pound(I paid around 80.00 to fill the bottle last time) More than 80% of the time, my bottle is empty. I personally hate the lag with a passion.. I dont drive around at 5000 RPM's on the streets.

My previous Z had tockTurbo's with GD DP's, Greddy Exhaust, Single Pop and ECU. I was running around 16 psi of boost.
On the Street It felt much stronger and faster than my current setup. The lag was minimal. overall it was a very fun car. I had fun with it on the freeway, streets...

My Wife, who was my fiance when I had my old Z..Has even noticed the difference. She doesnt really know whats under the hood, but has told me on occassion that my old Z was faster...

I am now attempting to save up for 2530 Ball Bearing Turbo's. I havent really heard anything bad about them. From what I am being told, They start making full boost around 2800-3000 RPM ( Someone please correct me if I am wrong. This is what I am being Told).

Anyhow. I prefer a more streetable fun car. I'mnot looking for High HP numbers or over all top end speed. My Gixxer does over 180 on any given day...(except in rain and snow)
