I wasn't even driving :( Needless to say, thanks for the heads up, I was hesitant uploading it for these exact reasons, but at the same time wanted to give an example of the Motordyne Exhaust.

I'm not sure of the law on that point, but I'd guess the heat would still be on you unless you gave up the name of the person behind the wheel - just like in the event of a speed camera fine when a friend is driving your car. Either way someone's not going to be happy if it is pursued.

Nah mate, DON'T pull me over just for the fun of it ... regardless of how well I am behaving I always crap my pants when getting pulled over :) .... I remember once when out cruising in my old S15 a copper pulling me over just to tell me how clean/good my car looked! Not an entirely bad, but not an entirely great experience :D

Mwahahah! Thats the whole fun mate! Getting everyone worked up and then utter relief when you see my ugly mug walking up to you!

Haha classic, i shit my pants last night i had a cop come up behind me flashing his lights so i went to pull over then he turned down a side street. Not that i was doing anything illegal i'm just generally scared of police officers :/

Haha, yeah we like to scare people. Especially in either pieces of poo cars or really nice ones. I was behind a lambo for the entire length of a certain long road. Oh the joy i got out of knowing he wanted to floor it as he usually does.

Bought the MD plenum spacers. Next up on my list is the MD ART Pipe.

Just a question about ART pipes if i use it with the stock exhaust will it have alot of rasp and rattle?

Im planning on using the test pipe with stock exhaust until i get the MD Shockwave TDX2.

what is the total HP/Torque gained for each setup

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.

      You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.

      ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.

      And if you have to drill the oil block, then just drill it for 1/4" and tap it BSP and get a 1/8 to 1/4 BSP bush. The Nissan sender will go straight in and the bush will suit the newly tapped hole. And it will be real strong, to boot.

      No it doesn't. It just needs an ezy-out to pull that broken bit of alloy out of the hole and presto chango - it will be back to being a 1/8" hole tapped NPT. as per @MBS206 recco. That would be for making what you had in alloy, in steel. If you wanted to do just that instead of remote mounting like @Duncan and I have been pushing. A steel fitting would be unbreakable (compared to that tragically skinny little alloy adapter). But remote mounting would almost certainly be 10x better. Small engineering shops abound all over the place. A lathe and 10 minutes of time = 2x six packs.
