I am in the middle of my build right now. For me the easy part is the engine. This tune deal is troubling me due to my lack of knowledge. There are so many choices. Ive got a T04e, eagle rods, wiseco 9:1, arp studs, cometic gskts, 800cc venom inj. I want to drive it now!!! I dont have any special t...

Hey man nice ride, pretty handy the trucks come in lower compression :D I kept my gay ass tool box for the sleeper effect... and also to store all tools and **** in. Too bad its an auto, but you can swap to 5spd when the torque converter explodes due to 30psi lol thanx... I plan to turbo it cause t...

the fans spinning pulling in X amount of air while ram air coming in at X speed.. there has got to be some kind of resistance there of some sort...

I am under the impression that having the fans on will create a low pressure zone inside the bumper/radiator/(intercooler) which will aid in forcing air into the engine bay. Rather then air wanting to just go around the car/truck. well from my experience... Ram air works well... Even the radiator s...

Well my 1st mod was a set of maxima electric fans... Removed that loud a** clutch fan and pulled out the shroud... Installed the fans on low speed only for now until i can install my water temp gauge so that i can monitor my temps and see if i need to put them on high speed... My altima fans on my 2...

i'm in a similar situation, same engine, but in a hardbody. Looking for anyone with a turbo hardbody/frontier who can give me some advice on parts, setups, any info on what works and what doesn't. someone with hands on experience with a frontier/hardbody build would be cool. its no different from a...

Looks nice! Ever one needs a truck to tow there toys around with! :D yea one day.... down the road ill get a trailer and mount my 240 on it and take it to the track and have everyone see it thinking its faster than sh*t.... Run my low 11 seconds and then put her back on the trailer and drive home.....

If any of you Frontier guys that are turbo and using a FMI, can you send me some pics so that i have an idea on what im looking at...
Im not gonna turbo my frontier just yet, but hoping to do so at the start of next year if all goes well...

Nice I was looking for a d21 or a frontier myself looks good.

tune wise....hows the switch over? like when you have a few gallons of either fuel left over and you fill up with the other. or if you were going on a trip and ended up mixing a tank maybe 30/70. does that just not fly......? well what i did was one day i jumped on the hwy and just drive till i got...

I dont know where the best place to post this but if anybody is running a maf ecu could you post screen shots of your fuel and timing maps so I can try to make a basemap for my car.

well since its right there close to the headgasket... it could be either one. and based from those pics, i really cant tell if thats a hg or intake gasket issue... the only way to tell is to wait till it stops leaking...

400 crank or wheel hp... there is a difference there..
