This is not what I thought it would be....

Any suggestions on good food?

Turbo will thank you...

Yes, that's about where it should be. The only thing on your list that makes power, besides the tune, is the exhaust

Technically, yes. But the RWD conversion and the midweight flywheel should reduce the drivetrain loss gaining a little power to the ground. Possibly a negligible amount.

Nothing that you'd see on a dyno.

What dyno? Bone stock K16 car with nothing but an off the shelf tune and a cat-less free flow exhaust will typically do 460whp on dynojet.

Dyno Dynamics. My understanding is they read a little lower than Dynojet. Similar results to Mustang dyno?

Where did you purchase the intake setup from?

I sourced everything through my mechanic. Not sure who he purchased it through. He recommended doing it while the engine was out.

eBay has a 20% coupon for certain tires over $500 combined order. I snagged 2 rears. Ends 3/3`

Thank you, I bought 4 tiny little tires 205/70-14 for my 280Z to go with the set of Minilites I just got. BFG Radial TA's with raised white letters for that 70's look. The BFG Radial TA's that are on it are old enough they don't have date codes....

Looking good. Did you get to hammer on the new tires?

14"! That's a riot. Those cars were everywhere when I was in college.

Nissan built over 700,000 of them from '69 to '78. Hardly see them anymore. I know Dock here has one also.
