Dont bother with an engineers certificate as it says on the bottom in huge writing "Valid For Only 30 Days After Inspection Date"

Dont think you can legalize it due to the fact that the turbo and everything else helps to increase your emisions.

The engineers certificate is good for proving structural changes in your car are safe and legal.

nothing you can do

with a highmount (and a crappy one at that ;)) your 100% f*cked

External Gate - 100% farked

modded plenum/Throttle Body - 100% farked

If i were you, i'd be very careful when/where/how you drive it

If they catch you.

You have to return it to 100% stock.

STOCK everything right down to the injectors and fuel reg :(

Pray to the gods is all you can do on that one

Engineers does not cover EPA in any form.

I know someone with a very similiar setup who was once pulled over by a cop and asked to pop the bonnet and the cops didnt say anything as they looked very confused at what they were looking at in there. :(

Guesty if your gonna do this setup then I would get another car an a daily driver coz u r sure to get done if driven around everyday.

Dark most cops aint gonna pick aftermarket injectors or fuel pres regs easily.

    • I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road. 
    • That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 💪🏼 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...
    • Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?
    • I'm having a problem. I think it was mentioned above somewhere but can't see it.  I'm stuck in the cycle of, sand, filler, low spot again, put filler, sand, low spot again, now i put filler again and a thicker portion which seems to have helped but I got low spots in other areas. In the image. Circled in red thats where the original low spot was and the shape is the same as the red out line. I've more or less fixed that (still low spot up the top but now I have low spots where the green circled part is.  Is likely the issue that I didn't start with a course sand paper? I sanded the filler with 240 to reduce the risk of not going to far but maybe the issue is that I'm only taking off enough material to remove some of the filler but not the high spots. I now started sanding with 120 and I think I'm seeing a difference. I did fix one dent the other 2 are f**ked and seems like I made another low spot which is indicated by the furthest green circle on the left handside. Any thoughts and solutions?   Also second image. All of these rock chips, can they be filled in with primer or do i need to fill them all with filler/putty? So many rock chips on mine lol.
    • Well, I had an Edward Lee's special edition odo windback car/motor with a RB25DET S2 and I put down 372kW with a good amount of track abuse for 1.5 years before the ring lands decided it didn't want to stick around anymore 🥲 But probably didn't help I kept on smashing try limiter on the track and a few skid pans.
