Not sure if you're talking to me Dr_jitsu. If you were, my car is a Tip and doesn't go well with dyno. I sold my Pbox to one of the board members thinking I won't be needing it, I guess I was wrong.

I ask because I would love to see some documentation to back up the butt-dyno.

Not hating, just curious. I would definately go for this mod if it would knock .3 seconds off my 60-130 time

Understood! That was a perfectly legit question. However, I cannot answer it due to my car's limitation.

silvershark is infamous around these parts
75mm TB

There are people making over 800hp with stock TB.
(per Markski)
I am told the larger TB comes alive on the larger turbo's ie GT35R's.

- Any other install hints?


Thanks in advance!
Remove the air box, y-pipe, diverter valves, then the oil filter housing, and then TB. There are (3)-13mm bolts that hold the oil filter housing. Basically, the oil filter housing is removed for better access and view of the OEM plenum and hose clamps. Also, it makes it easier for reinstall of the IPD Plenum and the rubber boots. You wanna make sure you get the angle right, when you tighten everything back up, flat and straight, or else you'll get a misalignment between the TB and Y-pipe.

Not necessary, but you can lower the motor for better access. Have fun with it, I know that IPD guarantees their plenum makes the power.

Mr. Sid, long time no talk. When are you guys running again in Mexico? I got a PM from Robert but no follow ups. I left him a VM. Are you guys still running?

Todd told me the same, although the GT 30's may also benefit.
