Ah. Cool. Sounds like a better deal than than the first.
Yes, you can get that sound with a 280zx turbo. Just install a BOV. More importantly, you should probably understand what a BOV does.

new to turbos? or new to cars? here i thought you were more mechanically inclined talking motor swaps and all... now (and dont take this as bashing or to condescending) i think you should stick with a stock turbo car and add as you learn. remember, you should always understand how something works and what it does before you plan to install it.

i guess i should have said moderately brisk yet non agressive test drive for your ***** ***

the dash is now dim you can only see it at night, runs great he says
it shutters when you first start it up

lol lol i angered the little dude. going by strictly what you said dude, your basic words point to, drive it and try to break something, if it doesnt then its good! yeah thats pretty aweful advice. also not sure i know mike on here has a buddy in atlanta with a zx he is also a member so maybe he will volunteer but other wise might have to do some phone haggling and take a long long drive to see it.
