Wouldn't that be counterproductive? Wouldn't you want the turbine housings to be hot indirectly from the exhaust inside of them (hotter = more energy = quicker spool up)? By cooling them down you'd probably be cooling down the exhaust gasses inside of them. I could be wrong, just throwing a thought out there.

I wrap all my setups with fiberglass wrap. 1. Keep heat away from things don't want to get hot. (wires) 2. It does help spool a little better excpecially when the turbo is mounted away from the manifold like the RMT setups. Though having 2 side by side could cause them to overheat and create boost problems.

Wrapping would be ideal...but I'm saying wouldn't cool air be NEGATIVE?

thinking about wrapping, but with all of the heat that these ***** put out its like damn, you can see it iradiating from the hood, kinda crazy. i just dont want some ish to catch on fire.

i also installed this homemade exhaust controol valve so i dont have to use my silencer. its sicer at idle but sounds good while driving. gonna take a freeway run later to see how it does. i have it vaccum actuated through the charge side so it opens on boost then closes on idle to keep unwanted noises down..

The wrap will cut down on the heat and will make the spooling a tad bit quicker, so you have nothing but good gain from doing this.

ok so check it what would be the best way to tune this, i just picked up a set of 440cc turbo supra injectors. was wondering what i should use. i was leaning against a nistune but then now im thinking of going greddy emanage.

what would you use, the injectors are 440cc and low impedence 5.9 ohms of resistance .

the setup is ok for now but i want more powah.

ill take all than i can get or what you guys will offer thanks!

I think you could go with an emanage blue with the injector and timing harness or go for an emanage ultimate. I've seen them both go pretty cheap on the 350z forums.
