[QUOTE=Jordan T;5245946]wow you guys are really into this car lolQUOTE]

No we are not.. It is a great car and setup but the only reason I post up as you can gather from my previous posts is that I dispell myths. 440 rwhp
(stock cams) at 1 bar is a myth. 440tq at 1 bar is a myth.
The reason I dispell myths is not to be a dick, but to save people (my cusomters included) money. See.. when someone makes a claim about a given motor and that they got xxx hp / tq at xxx boost with this setup, people will follow. People will spend their very hard earned $$ on a identical setup. They, just like you, will not make the claimed power at that boost.

I have been in Nissans and doing what I do for a living longer than most of you have had a drivers license. I have built many KA's with everything from T25's to 4294R's and from that experience I can tell you that your statements might lead some people to attempt your setup and be dissapointed. I wish you luck with the car, but until you can get a dyno sheet with a HP / TQ / PSI over RPM plot don't quote numbers.

Flip the situation this way...

Remember the CA you had that had the turbo on it's way out ? What if at that time I told you that all it takes to get a CA into the mid 400's is this magical turbo that is only $2200... Don't need cams... badass exh manifolds or nothing... just this turbo that you can buy.
You spend that money believeing what I TOLD you and then are totally pissed at me when you don't make near that.
