lol...dude my A/C has been inoperable since last August...One of the lines coming out of my A/C compressor got wedged between a charge pipe and some other solid point and the line ruptured...I lost all my refrigerant and I eventually just cut the line off...I've been driving for almost 15 years now, and I've never really run the A/C in any of my vehicles, always been a windows down kinda man...I was told that I could get the bracket and pulley from an Altima w/o A/C but I've never really looked into it...I'd much rather relocate my alternator to free up some room in that part of the engine bay...That was quite a clever idea. If you decide to market it or whatever lmk. My car already has some of your fab work on it, so I think it'd be fitting...

Once you get over the headache of that Synapse Wastegate. You will Love it, just dont forget to write down what your psi is per combination of the port/sping combination. I'm getting a solid 15psi out of mine, still not gotten around to hooking the the EBC waiting to find better hoses

We've got a gear dependent EBC going on the car, I'm not sure it'll like the synapse wastegate....... we've got a Turbonetics WG as a back up.

well the flow bench numbers look really good............ stock is around 213 cfm on the intake side @ 28", after extrude hone 241 cfm @ 28" on the intake and 196cfm on the exhaust side.

I ported the ---- out of the cast turbo manifold and we've got a full 3" exhaust now, that w/ the custom intake manifold, big cams, and .82 a/r exhaust housing........... this thing should ------- rip.......

some genius at Garrett decided it was alright if the oil drain didn't clear 360*, so it is what it is, lol.

Damn, that ----'s nice. What kind of #'s is he looking to get out of that engine?? Does he have any plans for traction??...OTHER than gear dependent boost control and slicks. You've already fabbed him up a set of traction bars....RIGHT J??
