The only benefit you might see would be a little extra low end power, and a little less lag if you go for a sequential setup.Besides, adding an extra turbo is just going to add more weight and headache anyway. You'd need a custom exhaust manifold, you'd definitely want an intercooler for any turbo upgrade, extra piping, another turbo with wastegate, more vacuum lines, more headaches, less space. You could just stick with single and probably make better power anyway, that's why alot of people switch from TT to single.

sequential setups have proven to be worthless... a TT is supposedly for running higher boost like a larger turbo since you have teh efficiency of 2 turbos but there is supposed to be less lage since tehy are smaller... but honestly... it doesnt work out that great after all. you now have half the cylinders poering that turbo so you still end up with similar lag. its pretty pointless and twice the cost and twice the probability of something going wrong. only car that should be twin turbo'd is a Z32. and even then i ponder on how the single turbo version fancies.... i wonder...

things to save when scrapping a car, exhaust manifold, turbo, injectors, j-pipe, all intake piping to turbo, ECU, wiring harness and any other mod you put into it before hand because theres no use in throwing away almost new parts.

Welp... there goes $1k+. I'd put the thing on a kart and tow it around the block to save it (and a thousand dollars)... but that's just me.

Hey everybody just talked to him a short while ago. Everything is pretty much gone. Except for a few things. So you will have to ask him about it.

I.....I...have lost her....she is gone forever....

I was able to save the Jpipe, the AFM, some other little tings like that light that goes in the middle of the tail lights that says 280ZX TURBO....the badge for the center console, the shifter ****. I want to sue the county for this...they cost me alot of money due to my **** being an "eye sore" ****ERS! This is a hell of a country that we live in where in you can buy **** and own but you must pay for it over and over and if some #$@^ says it's an eye sore then you have to pay some more. I am sorry for my language but I am really upset....though once Snw gets the care package I sent him I will be cheered up a little....it was a funny couple of things I sent him...and he paid me for them and has no idea what I sent him for his money...LOL Jokes on Snw.

don't you love how a 'Towning Company' can steal someone else's car and then get legal ownership of it to auction it off for cash.
Nobody else can just apply for a title in this manner.

Do you still have the intake manifold by any chance, and if so is it complete with all that madness on top? How much shipped to 92518? I need everything on the intake manifold. I have a stripped one that came with my car. Thanks

I have a project '72 I'm working on. I'm putting together a l28et and I have most major parts for, except the intake manifold that I have is bare. So I needed the fuel rail etc to put on it. I'm still rebuilding a stock T3 right now for it and then I need to pull the block I have apart to put in the turbo pistons and replace all gaskets etc and pull out the busted head stud and replace them with brand new nissan ones that came with the car.
