Stock turbo Z motors need LOTS of work to make good, reliable power. The RB25 or SR20 is a better choice if you're doing a swap and not starting with a turbo L80 in the first place because you happen to have one.

Did you look at the airbox?
The fact it has a 3" inlet for running piping outside the engine bay?

yeah I saw the airbox, I was referring to the hot engine bay air the the ITB's would be pushing into the engine, but I got confused when I saw DP's post, thought he was saying that in reference to the ITB's w/o the airbox, then I realized I was off-topic, so I finished it. In hindsight I could edit it with a "..." but I thought I'd just make myself look like an idiot....like that time at the Luau for example



EDIT: BTW, that airbox is damn cool (HA! I made a pun, sort of)
