A 5" exhaust would have an area of 19.63".. so yeah 2x2.5" is not equal to 5'' in this case.

Following blindly, 2x2.5 has about the area of a 3.5 inch pipe. Of course, it's not just about area, but we will save that for another lecture.

Thank you. Open mouth, insert foot.

Whatever it flows, it's seems to be enough.

And I will second what others have said about the oil cooler. Go with the 34 row with the thermostatic plate. My oil temps never go above 220 and on a cool day are right around 190-200.

I will definitely be getting an oil cooler now. I guess the parts that I read where a little wrong. So thanks for this info. I am also glad to hear that you have a berk exhaust with a TT and glad to hear that you like the power that you got with it. Out of all the exhaust I enjoy the Berk sound the best. So this news makes me happy

Here's the clutch I'm referring to

90-96 300zx Twin Turbo South Bend TZR Clutch Kit

I am from south Cali, I live in the San Diego area. And thanks for looking up that clutch for me. I want to get a really good clutch but not to expensive. But when you go FI cheap really isnt a word used I have come to find out.

With that said, if I was ever in proximity of a cop, I short-shifted every gear and did my best to stay out of boost.

Thanks Nixlimited, this is the kind of thing I was hoping to hear from people about. I was hoping that even if I did have BOV that as a long as I didn't act a fool as you said, I should be fine.

I am going out to sea for a month in a few weeks and when I do I am dropping off my car to have my TT installed. Ill keep you guy up dated with the results when its done. Thanks for all the feed back so fare
