I just saw this thread and clicked through every single page and all I can say is WOW

Also, where do you work? lol

Very nice build, and glad everything is working. Also loved how it sounded nice and quiet at idle on dyno and then when it was stepped on, sounded amazing.

I work for myself (self-employed) in the Oil & Gas business.

The other key to this build is that it took several years. I didn't run out and just grab everything I could. Everything happened over a long period of time, making sure it was done right the first time.


Magazines that I've submitted pictures to:
- Turbo & High Performance
- Import Tuner
- Modified Magazine
- Super Street
- Nissan Sport Magazine

Actually submitted them today, so we'll see what happens.

But yeah, my tires (295/30/18 BFG KD's... dry only) only have about 3000 miles on them, but they are about 7 years old and have become really hard.

With the boost controller ON, I spin in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and part of 4th... to the point where it is pointless to have it on when it's cold.

I see, very nice.

I can't wait till I get a normal job too (1 more semester in college) so I can do some stuff to my car too.

It has a TIAL 50mm BOV and TIAL 50mm wastegate, both of which you can't really hear in the video that well since the windows are up. I'll get some more vids up this weekend. I have 2 weeks of vacation starting TOMORROW. :)
