Re: F/S OZ-Flow BBTBs and Phenolic spacers
hey guys i havent posted in a while but ive been away @ college. that being said its obvious that im poor...but i should have enough to get boosted by the end of next summer...im gonna get it from speedfactor and im thinking about going with the t3/t4 over the t3 super 60 and i saw this thread and was wondering what people who are boosted are pullin at the dyno, and what turbo they are boosted with

Re: Hey, I Don't Have a Turbo!
welcome back to the site...
it's spelt Altezza's. it is in reference to the Toyota in Europe of the same name that made "euro tails" so famous.
it looks like your intake filter is below the battery. you know that for better performance the filter should be placed behind the fog light. to do this, you cut a hole in your fender wall and have a pipe going back behind the fog light. all AEM and AEM knock off's do this....
but... since you're going to turbo soon anyways... who cares?
i like those tails.. go good w/ your color. get some clear corners man. yellow reflectors are ugly

Header question
Good start so far.
But a few things.
1. Welcome to the site.
2. Read the rules and follow them.
3. Post where applicable. IE: "Turbocharged Tiburons Post Pics Here" is not a place for you to post pictures. You have no turbo.
4. You say it's been awhile since you posted. You have 1 post. I'd say it's been forever since you posted.

We don't newbie bash here, at all.
You did post in the wrong place though, so if you've been a member so long, then watch where you post eh?
BTW, you must have had some posts at the old site, the merger merged those and updated post counts.

my bad about the post...yah i know you guys dont bash on newbies, and thats good..what i meant by that was i would see so many times you guys telling newbies to search before asking a question thats been answered before...and that i made sure to do that...and i didnt think my post was inappropriate just the pics since i didnt have a turbo...n e ways back to my original question....your boosted arent you redz? if so what turbo you running and how much hp you pullin? 1/4 time? thanx man

Nah, no biggie. That's why I moved it here so I didn't hear it from everyone else. And to protect you mang.
No, no turbo as of yet. I'm studyin about these things. I'm going to go with a 1/2 Extreme Speed Factor kit and some custom stuff from Korea.
