pm them to me. I recently took out everything that had to do with the A/C and heater. From vents, to lines, to the blower motor, everything...Hell, even took out the passenger side airbag which weighed like 20 lbs. Can't wait to get plexi glass, tar out, and the moonroof out.

Props on your weight reduction

Damn Chris sometimes you dont have the best luck

Damn my friend has a S13 with an SR20 swap just like the one in the vid but he has a JDM front end conversion on his. Same red and everything.

if you are down to 2100 lbs then I'm pretty sure you'll take me no nitrous. I'm only putting down 190 corrected whp on a dynojet, and 179 whp according to the new dyno at TC performance. My car still has everything in it, so I'm pretty sure you would take me, but we should find out. PM me with when you want to meet up.

When you went to TC did Tobi shrow on with wideband ? Im curious to know if that 80 bones gets you timing advance with wideband and Vafc tunning. I also need to stop over there and pic up a cat and throwout before this new fly goes in.

actually I just went to the dyno day so it was $10 for one pull w/o wideband. Can't do timing advance on the J30 w/o the use of the emanage ultimate, and even with that it may not work.

If I could mess with timing advance over factory settings I'm positive I could get into 200 whp on his dyno NA.

see, im not sure if Tobi will get in the engine bay and start tweaking my timing .....of if he'll simply pull some baselines, tune then pull again using wideband

well, I know he'll do tuning with cam timing, but not sure about ignition timing. there are price quotes on the website somewhere, and you can always just call and ask.
