January 16, 200619 yr comment_152215 Great vid - that inspires me. Ive realised, however, that l-series motors often sound quite 'industrial,' - you'd have to say thats pretty close to a kenworth turbo diesel?

January 16, 200619 yr Author comment_152268 a BOV is a blow off valve... basically a turbo bypass valve which vents excess air pressure in the system when the throttle closes.. the the system under pressure, and the throttle closes, the air is forced back into the turbo and is called compressor surge, which can damage the turbo.. Here is a video of Austin's 240Z turbo and he has a Greddy Type RS blow off valve (Same as my BOV! arrg) But if you listen closely... his flutters (pssh pssh pssh really fast) and mine doesn't! I have concluded it's because he has a HUGE turbo, and I have a stock T3 http://www4.ncsu.edu/~alhoke/z1.wmv VIDEO whoohoo! This is my car with matching RIMS and my old exhuast and here is my Gnose I plan on putting on.. someday Thanks for the kind words guys!

I have concluded it's because he has a HUGE turbo, and I have a stock T3Man I like the blue Z, it is one of the closest i've found to being what I like. Mine has the same front air dam, for except mine has all the side blinkers, gas lid, vents, and rear bumper mounts all filled in for a totally smooth look!!! I love the fact that you turbo'ed it. Mine will eventually get its v8 sbc twin turbo setup put in it when that is completed. I talked to banks turbo co. today about the set up! I can't wait!! all in all i have the cali. style mirror from motorsports but mine is like yours and I love your man!! I like the color i havn't decided yet but it was between that color or pewter. GREAT WORK ON THE CARS!!!! I"m glad the blue one doesn't have the gnose!! looks great the way it is!!

January 19, 200619 yr comment_152646 Prox ... I dig it immensely.I'm whipping out this video the next time that someone (a car-snob uneducated about Z's) tells me that a turbo swap is a frivolous endeavor.
