Are there aftermarket intakes available for the L28 that'll provide the airflow you need to gain full potential of something along those lines?

Where did you get that info?

That's a stock 280ZX NA intake manifold with the webbing between the runners. The big throttle body is probably from Weber as I have the Motorsport auto unit and it doesn't look quite like that. The Twin Turbo emblem is the stock emblem from an RB26DETT Skyline engine. Nothing special.

Well that one's cooler cuz it's still an L series!

Of course you realize that it would be much cheaper to twin turbo the L28 that I already have then to go out and buy a RB26DETT. Maybe only in initial investment but still it makes for some interesting bragging rights!

I have a book from amazon.com that has the twin cam exl\plained and a 450hp NA motor! Also some very slick looking z's.

I'll post the title when I get home from work.
