Attn Czar

hey man,

ok we're looking at turbos for my VE, and i have a problem. with the compression as high as it is, i can't run very much boost, which sucks because a VE has an iron block so i should be able to run lots of boost cause it's stronger than the aluminum VQ (according to Phil96se) anyway, i had a few questions for ya. 1.what type of turbo are you running? 2.how did you lower the compression in your ve, head gasket, pistons? 3.can you tell me where you got the pistons, headgasket? 4.can you tell me any problems you ran into? 5.how much boost are you running? i have no problem fabricating stuff. pgh-maximas will help too there's a shop that says they'll do a SC on a 3rd gen, all you really need to do is some cutting and modding of the engine bay anyway, if you could help me out on these questions i'd really appreciate it. thanks!

good luck getting any info



This info is highly confidential. There have been turbo talks amongst the 3rd gen community forever, Czar is like the 1st one I've seen to do this project and complete it... much credit for that.

Heh.. No, wait, let me get this straight. You want info from us, but you're calling us gay? Go for it, have Phil help you. He knows just as much about turboing a VE as most everyone else. Maybe you should try searching for stuff before you post questions like this which you know you've seen at least 3.8 billion times..

yeah, the 4th gen column does seem to be more helpful. basically i said it's gay cause nobody shares info on this topic. so it's not like i said "hey homo, can i have some info?" i did do a search, and everything says something different, i thought i'd ask czar cause he's done it, and maybe i could get it straight from him. i also heard from someone that he might start selling kits. I was gonna talk to him about that too. simple info request.
P.s. Mike, i never told anyone about your sexual orientation.

you know DA-MAX
there is a 240sx on EBAY that has a VG30DETT swapped into it, and also a 250 hp Fogger System on it. Selling for 20,000. They say they make a kit to do the motor swap but it's expensive. Maybe they can help you clear up your instructions just a tad bit. For the Newbies of the org and all
