      There's nothing better than pushing a few buttons to switch between boost settings. Manual ones are a pain in the ass to get set properly and you never really know how much you're actually turning it up. AVCR isn't that hard to put in either, as long as you have a little knowledge on wiring and vaccum lines.

        well being that hes putting this on a NA motor, and using a pussy T3 turbo the most boost he will be able to run is about 6-7psi, so its not like hes gonna be adjusting it all the time. BTW, if you have any intelligence, dont put ANY type of boost controler on it until you upgrade alot of other stuff. Stock boost with the T3 is 4.5 psi, leave it there or youll just blow it up. Thats a whopping 220hp BTW, and the T3 will max out around 300hp, at the crank, not the wheels.
        On second note, your NA auto trans is gonna be shot in a couple weeks anyway, the turbo auto uses a different stall converter with a higher stall and no lockup, plus bigger clutch packs and valving. We had a hard time getting NA autos to hold on jasons car when it was NA, with cams and headers with 200hp, good luck

              Cause he is responsible for making sure that you know everything you need to. God forbid you should have to do your own research.

                  well its worth a try, it will hold for awhile anyway, just take it easy on the shifts. i wouldnt worry about it until it starts slipping. BTW, its a pretty low mile unit im guessing

                      ^O snap!

                      And research pwnz! Read on the z31 forum, dont post questions. spend a month reading. before you even pull your car aprat for turbo parts, make it a 5-speed.

                                    wow, your an idiot. the wind blows and you change your mind, start to think about things, or sell that car so you dont fuck it up. Do you think your just gonna bolt on a couple parts and have a reliable 400hp car or something? Most of us ( me included, twice now)have shit tore apart for 6 months to a year to do major surgery like adding a turbo. Get a fuckin clue or quit posting stupid ass threads. Your pissing me off, nice car like that and you dont have a fuckin clue.

                                          The kid needs to figure out what he wants to do with the car in the end and do a LOT more research before he starts throwing money away on parts
