Message	like it is for the 3/S guys? I just made a post in reply to a single turbo setup question, but I wanted to make a thread to see what people things about it... The 3000GT/Stealth guys recently developed a single turbo kit for their cars and I was wondering if that option is not as "simple" for us...Here are some pics: It's a little pricy, tho...Here's the link for the kit: [ http://www.ipsmotorsports.net/product_info.php/cPath/2945_986_993_3064/products_id/2292 ] Between the projects TOM is working on right now, I remember there was a single turbo kit on the plans...Would a single turbo setup be harder to get done for the Z32 than it was for the 3000GT? I know the position on their engines is different and maybe they have more room for that setup...I'm just asking this because as much as I wouldn't be using a single turbo setup like that, because I live down here, it would be nice for the community to have a similar option...Advantages? I don't know, but from what I have seen on other cars, it looks to be better. Let's not start a war and let's just discuss... ......... VIDEO OF MY BLUE Z (Right click and Save As...)
