well thing is if he has low comp pistons then don't expect much. personally way i would have gone is high comp pistons, cams, headers, re-route intake so it is shorter, and then intake manifold.

re-route intake? my intake is as short as it could possibly be. a header is 300$ more than i can afford right now, the 3in exhaust that i had would lose more power NA than the stock which im running does exhaust does, high compression pistons are currently out of the question, as i drive the car 6 days of the week. believe me, i'd love to go all out and put cams/header/2.5" exhaust/high comp pistons, etc. but regrettably i dont have time or money. im mostly after suspension mods anyways, a car must stop and turn before it can go

If you want some cheap pistons that'll raise our compression, go with some E pistons. They'll raise your compression to 11:1 or around that if you want high comp pistons for cheap.

werd...

well i meant reroute intake before the ITBs. and 3" exhaust is over kill. biggest i would go on a NA KA is around 2.5...but that is if i had alot of stuff done to it already.

what suspension are you running? i am pretty much done with my setup...just looking for a little more power. pistons and headers are next...but debating the turbo cuz i have another engine waiting for me.

You don't have to get it smogged moving to California, just keep your old insurance since your not re-registering your car in california it stays registered in your current state and so you can keep your car insurance too

Hey guys, I havent been on here in ages. I've moved back to california, School and life gets in the way of car things, and the 240sx is sitting in the garage, waiting to be sold. The itb's are no longer installed, they sounded great and added some top end, and were incredibly responsive, but i couldnt get a plenum setup that i was happy with just using garage tools, and ran out of money. They will be for sale when I pick them up from arizona at christmass time. So for all you who were following this, heres the one and only vid we made of them.
