very decent results with your car there mate.

I have a question and I guess it is more of a technical question though..

with all the talk of skyline turbo's and ceramic wheels dieing over x psi and so forth..

your's at 14psi and still going for god knows how long and according to the mag, more than 100 1/4 passes in that form..

common theory of the ceramic exhaust wheel breakage is too much boost which results in too high exhaust temps which break them.

so with the use of NO2, what effect if any does it have on the exhaust temps?

is this the reason for your turbo still living today?

also, is your NO2 disconnected in someway when outside WSID?

what sort of boost is dialed in during street driving?

thanks and all the best.

Exhaust temps actually go up with Nitrous Oxide usage. Boost spikes to 14psi on the bottle but only very briefly. Over-speeding of the turbine wheel can cause it to delaminate from the shaft - not always JUST heat related.

I don't drive around with the bottle in the car when I'm on the street and when I drive to the track it certainly isn't connected. Theorhetically I should also have the solenoids isolated with blanking jets but that sounds too much like hard work to me :D

Boost for street driving is usually your regulation 8-9psi with the EBC turned off. That's where it lives most all of the time. Off.

Thanks heaps guys, girls and pusseh boys like brett :)
