    i will have to find a new airbox as i can't use the pizza box one cause i bought a small intercooler for 25 bucks on evilbay. Might be a sidemount for a skyline but i'm sure i will make it fit, i won lots of grinders and a few welders. ZD30 airboxes are hard to find up my way, any other ideas? I have read something about the vn commodore boxes, i can get a whole vn como for the same price as a ZD30 airbox, I guess there isn't much you can't do with thin steel, rivets, zipties and sikaflex.

    Compensators are near tuned out of the equation by most tuners as with a diesel you need fuel to make the heat to then make boost so the sooner you can get fuel in the sooner you will have boost and the sooner you have power and torque. Obviously all within reason so your egt's arent getting extreme.

    How does ZD30 airbox fit around the AC pipes? I can't see your AC pipes in this img.

    Looks like that pic was taken before i had the aircon pipe made up as it was converted from the rd28 the pipe from the condensor was different and i got one made it basically goes between the radiator and the airbox.
