find out what specs on the turbo, and who actually makes the manifold....

what are you going to use for the important part....Fuel Management?

either hondata or uberdata (something the guy created and uses for free to tune the car).......he knows his **** so i am not worried about that. he just put together a turbo gsr. well i can run that turbo on a low psi to get my power goals....or make a bit more. will it still be reliable?

also, its going to be around 3,300 with the install.....

Who created what? uberdata was created by a guy named blake, Hondata also is not free either, so im not sure what you mean by that.

And just because he put together a turbo gsr, doesnt mean he is good at tuning, etc.

well whatever he said about the uberdata. all i know is that he includes it into the kit and part of the price. i know the guy personally so i know he can tune a car. he has a turbo teg himself (an ls making 260whp and 230wtq)...yes i know that makes no difference but I just threw it in there.

could I possibly make my whp goal on like 5psi, because i've heard this turbo creates some damn good power. thanks in advance

that guy sounds like a retard. it also sounds like he is copying me and blake... i made 260whp and 230wtq and blake made uberdata... sounds like he straight stole these ideas out of the uberdata thread.

well before we go blaming anyone or anything like that. let me get the facts straight. im just stating what was said in a convo between us.

can someone offer anymore advice on the setup....what kind of power i should expect at maybe a certain psi.

also, someone want to explain this uberdata thing?

i just came in contact with the guy a few minutes ago. i was mistaken. guess its something thats been around for a bit he said. he never said he invented it, i was just overthinking i guess...maybe just misheard or misunderstood. i apologize for that (my fault).

hope that clears things up.

now back to my turbo setup and or explaining what uberdata is

not only did he not invent it, i highly doubt he made 260whp and 230wtq w/ it on his LS. That was me who did that... im not aware of anyone else who has used it on their LS with #s around that.

those numbers are not hard to get with an LS, and he never said that it was actually uberdata.
