Far as I can tell, everything except the injectors (already have Bosch 1600's sitting in the garage) and a tune (duh). GT3076, tubular manifold, downpipe, intercooler and piping, WG (Tial, I think) and BOV (SSQV, because why the hell not be obnoxious about my boost?). Pop the kit on, disconnect the charge pipe, drive up to the tuner, swap injectors, reconnect charge pipe, and let him do his thing. Ah, werd. The main thing was the gaps in the junctions, which looks unfilled and unprotected, but maybe (hopefully) you have something in there as well. Also, zip tie those damn junctions or something I might take you up on the Tial. 38mm should do it's job for a 3076 @ 20-25 PSI, right? and you have the BOV...damnit, man! I won't run Junk2, already have the injectors, and I don't know that the 255 will feed enough (considering a 340, or maybe the pump that I got a little excited about back in my fuel pump thread), but I definitely might have to hit you up as well. Between you and hatch, that covers a decent chunk of it. I'd just have to source a manifold that isn't ****, piping/intercooler, and the turbo itself...just have to look into the pricing of a 3076. Shodan sent me a PM a while back, I'll have to go digging through to find it.
Today i should be done done. I gotta crimp a bunch of dooche connector pins today.
Since im not using a traditional distributor anymore im using that 12v cable to power my k coils and all my other 12v stuff. So i made a box with a terminal board inside to distribute the voltage. Ill post pics later

Damnit hatchy, you're tempting me too much! I'll definitely remember that...once the car is running
You mean you posted pics before completing it? For shame that explains the gaps though. Gonna do any epoxy fill inside the breakouts?

Nope the civic. I have no idea what's going on with the Z06, guess my dad is slacking or something. Broke in June, pulled apart in August, the motor has been ready since at least Christmas so I'm not sure. I've moved further away from his house so it's not like I can just do by whenever anymore.

Re: **OFFICIAL FORCED INDUCTION RANDOM CHAT THREAD**
I've been doing the waffle about leaving it a Stanced street car or turning into a track day capable car and decided on the latter. Especially since I'll never put the torque I'm gonna make to the ground through a 195 tire lol.

Re: **OFFICIAL FORCED INDUCTION RANDOM CHAT THREAD**
If you're looking for a manifold, I have a buddy with an InlinePro Stainless T3/38 he's looking to sell. IIRC he wanted like $300ish for it. Not sure if that's "in line" with your plans or not, but worth mentioning.
Also, i'll make you a deal on the HKS - like I said its new in box and I have no intention of using it. I'll toss a picture up soon to entice you a bit further

I had an SSQV on my STi with one of the concentric inserts and I kinda hated it too...I pulled the insert and it was a lot less ricey.
.... and I still swapped to a red Tial Q

Which sound though? They have like, three or four different inserts you can get for different sounds, or you can run without an insert for a more standard "woosh".
That said...I love it. I love it when a well-hidden turbo car shifts, and suddenly reminds you that "yes, I do in fact have a large metal wheel doubling my horsepower".

I need that crimp tool like whoa. Gimme.
I do have a soft spot for stance cars though. It's so absurd and in your face. You can do basically anything.. low, loud, insane fitment, covered in stickers. When Someone asks why you just look at them abd say "because **** you,that's why" lol.
My S13 will be sort of a stance fitment drift car when I'm done. What people have started calling VIP GT or something like that.
The civic was so low I broke motor mounts bottoming out, rubbed a hole in the oil pan, but I never ever broke a lip or bent a wheel. I don't go where any speed bumps are and the streets and highways in Georgia are as smooth as glass. I even flexed the floor a few times. That being said I want to be able to drive the civic with the power it will make, not worry about ripping **** off the car. Especially since I'll be working at a race track soon and get free track time.

I think that whole slamming your car cause the road is messed up . Every stanced person I know doesn't give a damn . It just matters if you can drive the car

Re: **OFFICIAL FORCED INDUCTION RANDOM CHAT THREAD**
Finally found a GSR head for a good deal. I have a couple concerns though.
- There is a small scratch in one of the cam journals that I can get with my fingernail. Is this going to be a problem? can the machine shop clean it up?
- Replacing the LMA's is probably a good idea I would assume
- I won some Edelbrock 82lb valvesprings a couple years ago at WMHM. Id like to use them but they dont make retainers to match. You think its ok to mix retainers and springs? (crower or supertech most likely)
- Whats tasks are typically associated with reconditioning a head at the machine shop? Im thinking Valve job, valve stems and seals, resurface head etc. Am I missing anything?

My machine shop always strips the head bare hot tanks the head paints it ( even if i ask not to lol) then replace valve seals, resurface if it needs one, repair any broken studs and lap the valves and check for any bent valves. I pay 120 per head.

I haz questions too
Im going to redo my charge pipe next week.
Whats the most hp i can make with 2" pipe
Any downsides to using 16g ss pipe? I Know weight but any thing else?
Anyone remember tony the tigers teg turbo itb setup? What was that power chamber type setup he had right before the tb? Looks like the piping went from 2.5" to 3.5" then back down to 2.5"
What purpose did that serve?
