yeah...my understanding is diesel turbo usually not running higher than
1.2bar where petrol engine usually can goes up to 1.6bar. the other
reason for that is diesel engine don't have throttle body with butterfly
valve. so no pressure surge to the piping like petrol engine when u
suddenly close the throttle..

james...u r right.

manual diesel can install blow off but i doubt the sound will reach the
ideal of what you and me is hoping for. mine is auto...so, less hope! i
have friends modi their turbo to give the loud blow off sound but all
three 4wd of isuzu model. the workshop claims that isuzu engine fit most
turbo and can stand higher pressure & rev.

but your frontier is very fast already eh! difficult to over take oh.

not installing it yet but maybe later. It cost about rm299 to rm400
