hey guys thanks for answering i wont forget the cobra maf
i pre-ordered it before i recieved my 180sx, i actually ran it on my civic v-tech once and got about 400bhp out of it ... so i figured it would be good for about 1000bhp on my nissan .

aaaaaaanyhow.... (no i never ownd a civic)

p10det..... i live in cyprus , its a tiny island of 500,000 ppl in the meditteranean , were classified as greece but we arent part of it.

Anyhow you said you know 2 cars with de that have been turboed, i would assume they ran race gas to avoid detonation, considering that the de has a higher compression ratio from the factory , it would be easier for me to reach a number near that bhp output with less risk.

As you said the key is proper tuning , could you please elaborate , i am aware i will need to have a good safe a/f ratio, a good level of boost, and set a good ignition timing.

is there anything else i need to know ? the main thing i am looking for is what level of boost is safe to run on stock internals no upgraded gasket, i cant find this number anywhere. ive seen pistons rods etc being sold with a rating of things like 2 bar 1.4 bar etc but i cant find this safety number for the stock internals...

thanks again guys
