your statements. Statements like the balance tube is not big enought to even pressure between both sides of the intake manifold, or engine balance is a widely accepted theory. When was the last time you actually did some actual calculations or testing on the manifold to make that statement? Guess Nissan engine designers didn't know what they were doing when they designed the balance tube. It is just there for looks-- Or is that your assumption? Did you take a poll to see what was widely accepted and what was not? It was once widely accepted that the Earth was flat back in the dark ages. That didn't make it so. Learn to do some critical thinking. How do you know something is what it is ? Is it because of hear-say? I know for a fact that 3/4 or 5/8 of an inch hole in the manifold will not support ANY boost on our cars. I seen it first hand unlike you.
