Does anyone else get all happy when they find out about a boost build?

Return fuel system

I've heard the CSF radiators have fitment issues sometimes, but im still leaning towards their triple pass over the mishimoto

The Nismo has red stock OEM hoses? I assume from your picture that they were upgraded to silicon when the radiator went in.

Csf is fine, just replace their drain plugs and washers before installing. That's not an install you want to do twice when the drain seizes up on you.

I had to trim and cut a little bit of my fan thing to get it to fit right. Not to bad though. Most if it was done with a utility knife and aviation snips.

I got the hoses and CSF from Amber at the same time.

The CSF is on my list! I didn't know they had one with an integrated oil cooler, that is slick. I am going to get my kit on before I start doing the cooling upgrades.. want to see how the increase in capacity from the Gamma oil pan affects oil temps before I start making choices. Hopefully I have enough control over my right foot to limp along until I figure out the upgrade path I want to take... I don't have any plans to track the car.

RFS all the way! Had I done this I wouldn't have popped my motor.

I try to but im a noob at it. I only brewed a few batches so far. They came out ok but not what I want. I like my Pauliner and Washtiener Dunkle. Right now I only have 2 13.5 gal kegs of each and no korny in there.

The CSF don't have a oil cooler. It's separate. I'm just saying the two in combination keeps everything within temps.

I think it's pretty awesome. Personally I think it's the best kit you can buy right now.

D.Stillwell · 11-20-2015, 04:38 AM

^^ thanks. They had a couple of TT build Z's in there when I got tuned, both were from Jersey. Black Z with Amuse kit was nice.

They had a nice purple 350 NA build too, 350whp.

I'm tempted by FI, not going to lie. But really tempted by NA...I'll have to spend some more time thinking

I'm one of those guys that does just the basics mods and if I want a faster car then I'll just buy a new car oppose to dumping $10k-$20k in the engine, but hey that just me.
