Here are some more information for Twin Turbo:
Drifting has become a phenomenon, not just for teenagers and young adult men, but women and older adults are participating in this most unusual sport. There is quite a large debate among drifters as to what cars can actually drift, what cars are best for drifting and what cars can absolutely not drift.
Our focus will be on whether or not the Nissan 300zx can drift, is it considered a good drifter and how does the weight of the 300zx affect its drifting capabilities. Nissan Sport Magazine is the expert Nissan magazine, and they love to see exactly what Nissan's are capable of. In 2005, Nissan Sport Magazine decided to test the 300zx Twin Turbo and the 300zx 2 + 2, to see what they were capable of in the drifting arena.
Before we drift, what exactly do we know about the 300zx that makes it different than the "typical" drifting car?
o The 300zx is FAST! The ability to reach 60 mph in around 5 - 6 seconds makes it an incredibly quick sports car, and with engine modifications, turbo modifications, or boost kits...it is even faster.
o The 300zx is heavy. The 300zx weighs in at a little over 3,500 lbs! This was and still is unheard of in what is considered to be a fast, agile sports car.
Many so-called "experts" claim that the 300zx can't drift because of its weight. Well, Nissan Sport Magazine wanted to find out if this was truth or myth. Let's see what their road tests showed:
o You CAN drift the ZX! It has an amazing right turn drift, but it requires an experienced drifter. Where some cars can be drifted by first-timers, the 300zx is not one of those. A key factor to drifting this particular ZX is the E-Brake. The emergency brake requires a harder jerk than other cars, due to the type of brakes that are on this model.
o The four drifts that were conducted on this ZX model completely destroyed a set of high-end Bridgestone tires!
o Nissan Sport Magazine also noted that less wheel flicking and more throttle, creates a better drift in the ZX. What additional factors play into drifting the 300zx?
Modify, modify, and modify some more! You can customize your braking system with performance brakes, you can use sup-up the turbo with a turbo kit, or simply do some minor tweaks with air intake and strut bars. Ok...so now you know what it takes to drift, but you have to find the best place to get your modification parts. I ALWAYS use Modified 300zx.

Extreme Diesel Performance Part 2 Of 2
In another one of our articles we discussed some diesel performance items that can help you cross the threshold from diesel performance hobbyist to an extreme diesel performance connoisseur. Some of the items that we covered in the previous article include performance injectors and lift pumps. Now once you have gone as far as you can on bolt on parts, its time to start doubling up...on everything! The great thing about diesels is that they don't have to be as fine tuned as gas vehicles. If you can find a way to dump more fuel into them then it's all a matter of mixing enough oxygen with the fuel. If you can find a way to get enough oxygen in there then what you end up with is HUGE HORSEPOWER AND TORQUE! Now in this article we won't cover some of the other options that are out there when it comes to getting that extra fuel to combust such as Propane, NOS, Water Methanol Injection and CNG, in this article we are going to focus more on finding ways to increase oxygen and fuel levels with other means. Going back to earlier when I mentioned doubling up, there are three main areas that you can double up on your diesel to create some huge results including Stacking Chips, Dual Injection Pumps, and of course Twin Turbos.
Stacking Chips- If one diesel performance chip gives you extra power, won't two chips give you even more power? That is the idea behind stacking multiple diesel performance chips on your rig. The key to stacking chips successfully is knowing what kind of chips you are trying to get to work together. Within the diesel performance chip/tuner industry manufacturers use a few different methods to increase the horsepower in your engine, some of the most possible methods are adjusting timing and increasing pressure. When you are thinking about stacking chips it is best to find two chips that increase power in two different ways, for example one of the most common stacks for Cummins owners is using a Smarty Tuner with a Dr. Performance chip. The reason this stack is so popular is the fact that the Dr. Performance Chip increases pressure while the Smarty Tuner uses a couple of different methods to increase power and actually has settings to where you can back off the pressure. If you had two chips that adjusted the timing, you would find that your vehicle would run poorly. For legal reasons we won't tell you which stacks we have found to work best, but we will tell you to be careful as you start to think about stacking your chips, it may be more power than you can handle.
Dual Injection Pumps- Need more fuel? Then we recommend checking out some of the dual fueler kits out there on the market. As I said earlier half of the equation of more horsepower is more fuel, so what better to get you there than a second injection pump. Now this little trick doesn't work with the older diesels which is fine because you can turn the pumps up considerably on those but on the newer common rail diesels like the Cummins and the Duramaxes that utilize the CP3 injection pump to flow fuel into the rail the hottest craze for more power is adding a second injection pump. Once you have added a second injection pump you will be able to flow enough fuel to get you up to 1200 horsepower and your fuel pressure will increase up to 28,000 PSI. Currently the most well known companies that are offering Dual CP3 injection kits are PPE, Industrial Injection and ATS.
Twin Turbos- Put simply, you'll get more power, quicker response, cooler EGT Exhaust Gas Temperature's and lower exhaust emissions with a set of twin or compound turbos. With all the fuel you will have running to your rig with a set of stacked chips and Dual Injection Pumps you are definitely going to need some more oxygen to get some combustion going on. Twin or compound turbos are the perfect answer for those looking to push more air into the intake manifold. By doubling up on turbos you are going to be able to flow a considerable amount of more fuel while lowering your exhaust temperatures allowing you to run more horsepower safely. Twin or compound turbo setups are most common on the Dodge Cummins and are offered by companies like BD, Industrial Injection and ATS. More and more kits are coming out for the Duramax, and if you are a Powerstroke owner good luck, kits are few and far between for your rig.
So if you are looking to turn your diesel hobby into an extreme diesel passion, these are definitely a great place to start.

Who would win in a drag, a Volvo 850 T5R or A Mitzibitshi Legnum V6 Twin Turbo?
I own a Volvo 850 T5R and my friend owns a Mitzi Legnum V6 twin turbo.
He thinks he will easily beat me in a drag race but im not totally convinced because my volvo has alot of guts.
What do you think?
The Mitzi Legum V6 twin turbo hands down...
2011 Ford F-Series
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- West of Phoenix on the I-10 striping Arizona's Sonoran Desert, we're rolling at a moderate pace below the speed limit and toting a half-ton payload with huge torque from a massive new turbo-diesel engine directed to all of the wheels on a super-size one-ton work truck from Ford Motor Company.
