Re: Evaluate My Turbo Kit........Input NEEDED (BEe18SeAONe)
I will be having a list up for opinion shortly although with just a .48a/r turbine, I know most will have a problem with that..Your list looks great..I should hope that I can get everything done as well as you. I like the hks ssbv..From what I've read, it's functionality is very good and that's the most important part of the bov(not sound) good luck..i'm sure you'll love it once your done

Good set up man, I agree with going to 720's, Ithink greddys fit well in a honda fuel rail and they can be had through me for around 350. I would use a 1:1 FPR from aeromotive..everything else looks bad ***!!

Would an IC like that inhibit air flow to the radiator? Possibly resulting in a cooling issue? Just curious, it does look sickly !!

Re: Evaluate My Turbo Kit........Input NEEDED (2K_TEG)
Good point! Def. get new bearings. Depending on how many miles you have on the motor I would get a new oil pump, new water pump, new timing belt too. Might as well do it right the first time.

I could get you the skunk gears for $190. I think there a better deals than that though. I have seen $170 shipped before, but that was a long time ago.

Do you think this is necessary for a car that has under 16K at this time?

Do you have a prodrive oil gear? They are recommended once you break the 350whp mark.

Re: Evaluate My Turbo Kit........Input NEEDED (DC2R714)
After talking to the installer, he says that the Precision turbo that I had up there would never spool in time. He is an authorised dealer of garret, so can someone suggest a garret turbo thats good for my app? he suggests the .48 a/r, 60mm, TO4E

Also look for Art's turbo GB. I think you owuld be OK with one of those. .48 is really small.

What about all the other stuff you listed, you said it was cheap from that guy, iloveracing or something along those lines, how much are we talking?

The timing belt, water pump and oil pump could be had for a little over $150.

If I had to choose cam gears, Id either go for the Todas, or if youre on a budget, get the new STR ones. Those go for about $170. Both the toda and str use the vernier scale on theirs so its pretty accurate.
