looks good mate, make sure you post up a dyno sheet once it is all done and tested.

i just dont believe the statement of 400bhp, unless you care to explain more.

Looks cool! As above you'll want to be dumping that air flow meter to be getting near 300bhp let alone 400bhp imo. Is it running on moronic still? The turbo does look massive :cool:

Edit: That sounded a it negative on reflection, it wasn't meant to be :) Just interested to see how much power can be extracted out of a 1.8 16v with motronic!

In the 200sx scene 270bhp is quite acheivable with a smallish budget(1.8 16v), but the ECU is able to run a turbo as standard. To get to 300bhp a Mass air flow meter is required amongst other things not a air flow meter.

I've seen this car, nicely done

Motronic and piggyback iirc ?

needs a standalone but I think Nige and Jags mentioned that already?
