On That Manifold I wouldnt spend the 350 on that. You should check out Spoolin Performance. GO-Autoworks. AFI Turbo. Companies of those sorts. Other than that I think the setup you have in mind will get you to 300-350 easily

These were my current ideas...

Precision 6262 Journal, 58ar, t4 vband you could settle for something smaller that would spool quicker and still meet your power goals
obx top mount mani- no to obx, cheap **** will only make you pay more in the end
skunk2 intake mani not really needed for 300hp
2.5in custom mandrel bent exhaust w/ no cat and 2 resonators... go 3 inch, no need for resonators, the turbo system will quiet your car quite a bit, i recommend kteller 3 inch exhaust. i have it on my integra and couldnt be happier
255 walbr fuel pump
precision 750cc injectors
ebay intercooler
tial 44mm wg you could save money on a tial 38mm which will suit your goals
greddy type r bov
s200/s300
msd blaster no need for msd, stock ignition has been proven over and over again for turbo setups up to 700hp
keep built head
keep stock block with the money you save id invest in a built bottom end for extra safety

THESE ARE MAYBES: Depending on cash after i get a quick release, new seats, wheels etc etc...
crowler stage 1 boost cams not needed for your goals
68/70mm tb again... not needed for your goals
ebay cam gears

The manifold i was looking @ was this one...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT

Give me opinions on that...


I think that's about it... Opinions plz...

--- I just don't want a log mani... personal opinion. i think they look cheap and jsut not eye pleasing... ill check out those manifolds from the people you said... i was also considering having someone on the forums make me one... but idk who makes them and or if its even in my price range.

--- I understand i could go smaller for earlier spooling, but with that... i need to run more boost for my goals. The thing i am scared most of is, getting this 6262 and not having a sensible power band. I don't really care if it's laggy or not, because i am mostly just going to mess around with highway pulls and similar stuff like that.

I see you and the other person said no to the obx mani, if and when i get rid of the itr trans, i was planning on using a obx lsd :/ this felow i know is running it in his car and he is making around 850whp. treating him fine.

skunk2 intake mani... that's already on that car. so no money out for that.

The reasoning behind 2.5in, was simply because... i didn't want it to sound like ****. The larger in diameter you go, the less crisp is sounds @ lower exhaust pressures. I was going to have my buddy make me my exhaust with a vibrant universal muffler. i had it on my old cars and had it on my vr6, and i am in love with them.

msd, my buddy is giving to me for free... so ima use it :D

cams, and tb were just something that came in my mind... cams though, i wanted for the sound :D


what turbo would your rec. for street use/daily driving... for my whp goals and keeping it lower in boost range? I was thinking the precision equivalent of the gt3076, but imo... it just spools too early.

a friend of mine cracked his wastegate pipe right off his obx ramhorn less than a week after he got his car tuned, youve been warned i suppose. but why all the obx parts? save up some coin and at least get oem or mfactory

I was going to have my buddy make me my exhaust with a vibrant universal muffler. i had it on my old cars and had it on my vr6, and i am in love with them. 2.5 inch youre goin to sacrifice spool time and for the power youll be making with a 6262, id imagine you would have more backpressure than you should be comfortable with. 3 inch doesnt sound horrible at all, and youll gain so much more power. but hey i suppose if youre in it for the sound.. its not like i can hear my exhaust over the screaming of my wastegate anyways

msd, my buddy is giving to me for free... so ima use it :D i previously had an msd blaster setup on my car before it was tuned and i can tell you the car absolutely hated it when it tried to make boost. Put on an oem distributor, problem solved.

cams, and tb were just something that came in my mind... cams though, i wanted for the sound :D seems like you want a lot of this stuff just for the sound


what turbo would your rec. for street use/daily driving... for my whp goals and keeping it lower in boost range? I was thinking the precision equivalent of the gt3076, but imo... it just spools too early. a gt3076 should spool in the neighborhood of 4k-4.5k which to me, is perfect and streetable for a fwd car. Id suggest that, or a BW S256/258, Precision 5857, or you could save money and do a 57-60 trim setup. all of these turbos will get you 300-350 on low boost and still have room to go

you can make plenty of power with a Log and its plenty of Logs that look 100x better than that OBX top mount but I understand personal opinion. Yea check out those guys they make High Quality manifolds that you'll never regret in the end

--- I already did, they want way too much for a mani... like 800+... Out of my price range.

Logs in general is what i don't like, not even about the brand or anything. I just wanted to have a nice sized turbo and a top mount. its fancy :D

idk what manifold to go for then, if not this obx... i dont want to go all out... its not worth it... for my goals, and being street parked... not safe... not worth all the money under the hood to be possibly stolen.

Then you might as well not boost you car haha, honestly. For your goals a topmount is overkill and its clear you want it for the rights to say you have a "top mount" but why not just get something that will work fine for you and wont have to shell out a lot of cash?

When it comes to boost, do it right the first time man, otherwise, youre just going to be shelling cash out the *** when your obx topmount cracks on you. There are several options you can go with that are "brand name" and will suit your goals perfectly.

Have you checked into peakboost, synapse, rc autoworks, pfab, or inline pro? The manifolds they provide might not be topmount, but thats not to say they wont perform better than some cheap obx one.

--- inline pro is the other one i would go with. just gotta get it in a t4 flange and call it a day. they just arent pretty :D but i wouldnt mind having AC for the first time in like 8 years.

so...

Precision 5857 Billet Wheel, Surge Port, T4, .58AR, Journal Bearing
and
Precision 6262 Billet Wheel, Surge Port, T4, .58AR, Journal Bearing

What PSI would i have to run out of each (estimate) for 300-350...
What spool times am i looking @ in 3rd gear...

I stated earlier, i really just wanna have fun on doing highway pulls and what not... The turbo's are the same price, so buy once and go big (for later.. MAYBE... MAYBE NOT)... Or buy something more "Streetable" but be disappointed because it's not pulling on the highway like i would like.

The inline pro is a great manifold. That's what I have. AC is a must!

I wish I had experience with those turbos, but from what ive been told the 5857 is a great turbo and is streetable. so that should make you happy... unless youre not happy with 450-500hp.

then again a lot of people on here seem to love the 6262

--- The reason why i even wanted the 6262, was because i wanted to make 300-350 on like under 10psi... maybe 12psi... i have a stock block ... so if i use the 5857... i dont want to have to run the extra 5 psi to hit my goals...


thats why i asked... how much psi do you think will need to be ran... to reach my goal.
