RB26? I know a lot of people here on Okinawa running the stock RB26 intake around 600rwhp. You should be fine. I'm not saying a greddy intake wouldn't be better, but I don't think the stock one will choke it to bad. Do they even make cheap china greddy copies for the RB26?

individual is far better for what you are looking for, the single throttle body is usually used as an excuse by poor tuners using map based systems who cant tune around the vacumm/boost signal difficulties... or when crazy power is needed and the individual throttles become a restriction.

because you are running maf tuned rom i would only change the plenum and retain the std individuals.... use metal gaskets and a phenolic gasket between head and throttles... makes a big differrence to inlet temps on the 26.

Thanks for you reply!! Very usefull...!

That's why my engineer wants single! He told me that we will have problems with the idle!

I use tomei gasket combiation kit so I have all of them but they are all metal... I don't know what it is phenolic and if they are! How can I see it?

So I will go for greddy or nismo :D

And I will choose Greddy as it has half price :thumbsup:

you will have no idle issues as you are using MAF.... not MAP. Your engineer is confused.

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
