[s-cars] Vacuum leak

[Taka Mizutani]

Yeah, if you're looking for a drag racer that might work, but off-boost,
that turbo that doesn't begin to spool until 4k is not going to be fun to
drive in the real world.

I guess you have it all figured out, so you don't really need any advice
from us. A lot of listers have already BTDT, tossed multi $$$$ away on
mistakes and learned from them.

You will need rods north of 450 hp or so, so a turbo the size of a GT35R is
going to start breaking stuff. Have you budgeted for brakes, clutch and
transmission mods? No point in going fast and not being able to stop, unless
you're just drag racing, in which case I'm done with this thread.
