Break-in question about my turbo setup.
95 GSR....stock B18C1
ECU is being chipped right now with a baseline map (PHIZ
)
Uberdata
Stock OEM headgasket, stock rods, pistons, headstuds, etc.
Precision sc34
Inline Pro Manifold
Tial BOV
Tial 38mm .5 bar wastegate
255lp walbro fuel pump
spearco FMIC
Skunk2 IM
RC 550cc Injectors
Revhard piping/downpipe
2.5" carsound cat/ 70mm Kakimoto exhaust
GSR tranny w/ 7lb fidanza flywheel, dual centerforce clutch
...thats the setup. now i got new headstuds/headgasket, etc.
What type of break-in am I looking it. right now the head is going to be installed tomorrow and the turbo/piping/everything will be installed on sunday.
Break-in? How many miles? How long till i boost it?
Also, with this baseline ecu that phiz is helping me with, I understand that I can boost under that, but would you until its fully tuned? He is tuning it like a week later on the dyno anyway so should I just wait or what?
I know there is a lot of questions but I just want to know everything before I start driving the car. I don't want anything to go wrong, i've been waiting too long for this car to be done to have that happen.
thanks in advance

Re: (TheShodan)
Well pat Once you get it started check for oil leaks, smoking, ect..... You can boost no problem, but a basemap well is a basemap, so I'd wait for any full boost pulls until you Tune on the dyno, or whatever you and Phiz have planned.
Hopefully it will start up with no problems, but sometimes **** happens and well you might get the good ole CEL, but take your time, and honda-tech is here to help you if you have an Urgent questions during your install.
