Message weekend...

My Z and Mixman's Z... both on pump 91, similar boost levels, similar ambient... same dyno, same operator, same tuner (Greg & Seb)

Both cars are damn near identical for mods (full 2.5" intake & IC piping, Z1 throttle bodies, identical manifolds & exhaust, IPP stage III blocks with identical builds") except for the heads... from Mixman's profile:

Built Heads (JWT 500 Cams, Port & Polish, 5 angle valve job, Ferrea 1mm Oversized Valves, Ferrea Titanium Retainers, Ferrea Dual Coil Valve Springs, etc.)

I'm on 'refreshed' (cleaned up, valve job, lifters replaced) but otherwise stock heads & cams.

91 Oct. ~ 12.5 PSI: I'm red, Mixman is blue, I'm pushing .4# more boost:

My car is noticabley 'torquier' at 3500-5000 RPM, then it pulls some but runs out of breath at the top. Mixman's is much more progressive, and would probably benefit from bigger turbos than the Sport 530's we both run. ConVerTT can attest to my car's torque... it's fun on the street with that kind of pull with those heads.

My Zs are hybrid vehicles, they run on gasoline and money

I'm off to wax mine and go for a drive now.

times change, people change, but the Z32 still kicks ass.

I was more wondering how you set your climate control to 22*
lol, it would be that fastest freezer on wheels!

What do you think B&B stands for?
