I just can't follow the logic. He's ostensibly building it to take it to the drag strip...but I can't imagine something like that passing tech. I'm not sure he's properly accounted for thermal expansion, so he could easily wind up with cracking and get a passenger compartment filled up with exhaust fumes, and let's not forget that EGTs on turbo applications often wind up above 1200*F. If something goes wrong, the driver is in close proximity to some very, very hot parts.

#9, no, it's not a joke. He's bought too many other maximas. He plans on heat sheilding for the pipes and enclosing them into a seperate space. Isn't there an easier way to do this?

#11, You mean, like removing extraneous hardware from the engine bay, relocating the battery, and using an FMIC in front of the radiator to make a little more room? Naah, putting your red-hot turbos within a factory firewalled area isn't creative!

Then, I decided to put in my *Frebie* fuel injectors for good measure and make sure I never run lean.
Insues the insanity.
- First, put in 6 new injectors. When I tried to start the car, it hydrolocked. I thought it was because of the carb cleaner I had sprayed. Pulled all the plugs and turned it over. It then blew fuel out of the plug holes like a supersoaker. This in turn soaked my hood, bottom half of my windshield, and engine bay, as well as the motorcycle in front of my car. I immediately grabbed some towels and wiped the bike off and gave it a quick detail. I then threw the towels over the plug holes to keep the fuel from spraying everywhere. Well, the fuel had enough force to blow through the towels when the car was turned over.
- Then the unforeseable happened. A spark.
- The entire windshield, hood, and engine bay went up in flames.......

#15, One freind ran inside and grabbed the fire extinguisher. I made the choice to go in the flame and throw the two burning towels off of the engine. That turned out to be a good decision. Then I use the extinguisher and put out the fire.
- The fire out, I surveyed the damage. Nothing immediately visible. Wires and lines look good. I looked in a plug hole, and you can see the gas filling up the cylinder. Also, I cannot keep pressure in the fuel line (I have an inline pressure guage). Apparently two of the injectors are stuck open.
-So, now I am ordering new injectors, even though expensive, so this won't happen again.
Any questions?

#17, he managed solely by the grace of the internet gods who have kept him alive for comedy's sake. The exploding fuel shit was the best.
"OH NOES GAS EVERYWHERES!!!! ON HOT ENGINE AND BIKE!!! WIPE DOWN TEH BIXORS!!!!
