i hope so see when it is al done but i pretty much ordered the same turbo , didnt get a housing yet but wil prob copy scott as the tial housing is made for the garret gt30 series and been told it fits

the hdi intercooler

the kakimoto n1 mega

so will need dump pipe

race cat front pipe

adaptor or new manifold ( been told not to go that way )

suction pipe

ill sort this all but i might do the ecu first so any thing else i do after can go straight in with a tune each time or in one hit

il start a new build thread soon with pics of parts as they arrive and when i get em put in

get a Tial Vband style.

easier to get a dump on there. 1 bolt instead of 5 lor 6 or how ever many there are.

and wouldnt spend the time in doing a manifold. its clear that our stock ones are supplying enough airflow.

OK so here I go.. apologies if this is a done and finished topic, but I noticed this topic appeared to be primarily for the VQ25.. what about the VQ35 ?

I am genuinely crap at researching, and keep stumbling on options for the turbo’d VQ25. I am always trying to refer to V35 threads as I understand that is close in many ways.

Can I do long tube headers, and is there a benefit over short tube headers in my case? What hi-flow cat options are recommended ? What size exhaust will be the sweet spot ? I understand that if and when I do any mods/upgrades, it needs to be able to exhale well to begin with, I am looking at the plenum spacers (happy for opinions and guidance) as I want to stay NA... and purely want to ensure the lovely can drive it without killing herself.

my belated Christmas wish (as a starting point) is full exhaust to suite my PNM35 ARX. I’m very late to the game, have already done suspension, brakes are up for discussion as well, as I want this little terror to stop as well is it handles as well as it goes in a straight line.

then sway bars are next... but baby steps for now.. I have been on this a couple of times and have found everyone super friendly and helpful over the times 

hope everyone has had a good Christmas
