Quick question regarding the gauges... don't they block your field of vision?
Yes and no. Yes they block a small bit of your vision, but after driving with them for a week you'll forget they are there...honest! Then you'll drive a car without the pod and feel like the window wraps all the way around without an A-pillar

welcome to the club...watch that belt...it tends to stretch and you'll notice a belt slip squeal on early morning starts and it won't get better...you'll need to upgrade to a GATES belt cuz they are thicker and won't stretch.

Great install. Kudos. Love the lower attitude too.
Let us know when she's all tuned and how it performs.

Nice job...

quick question though, I built a s14 before (it was with a sr20det, BBGT37turbo, and probably 20grand worht of other crap) as well as a MKIV Supra TT so I was just wondering why it seems like g35 owners dont really go with a EGT gauge.
For me, it was always boost, egt, and if I wanted a 3rd, either a wideband or oil pressure...

Mad Paradox, you exactly right! I used to work for the company that makes all of Nissan's hood locks. The grease acts as a deterent for rust as well as a spring silencer when you close the hood.

I am always mazed at how smart everyone is on this board! Keep posting.

From what I've seen it is most supercharger guys that don't get EGT. I can't tell you why (technically) but I know it is not needed like on a TT set up.
