Looks like a good start, but you still need to do some more research. What are your power goals with the car? Is it DD? Going to the track with it? You aren't going to run Crome and E-manage together. Definitely go with Crome Pro. Way superior to what E-manage can do and it will be a lot cheaper. 10.5:1 Compression is doable but the tune better be dead on. Also you aren't going to be mounting a fan on your IC. The fan goes on your radiator. Oil cooler probably won't be necessary.

 

well interms of power goals i was thinking 350-450hp anywhere between that ill be ok...what cr would you recommend....for management its either going to be crome or emanage but i ll just still to the crome ill probly do alittle drag racing but it should mostly be a DD....i see yopur point with the fan on the IC though i think it could work but i wouyld probly use at the track only just for allittle more cooling cause that fan would have to run all the time to be any good........

 

350-400whp is doable. Majority of people run anywhere from 9:1 to 9.8:1 compression. You didn't state what pistons or manifold you are going to go with. Also what size turbo you deciding on? Do a search to see what other users with LS-VTEC turbos are putting down and what parts they used. The fan on the IC isn't really going to do anything. If you wanna cool the IC, look into the nitrous IC.

 

thanks ill do a little more research and get back to you.........for the turbo i know immo go with some t3/t4 setup not sure abot the .ar just yet.str piston i metioned that any recommendation on the manifold.........?

 

Depends on a lot of things. Do you plan on keeping PS and AC? I personally made 400whp while keeping AC and PS. I use a SFP log manifold. I personally run Wiseco pistons. I would go with Wiseco or CP Pistons. Keep doing research so you do things right the first time and find a good tuner.

 

Ditch the AFC hack and get some large injectors, as for that blockguard it really isnt worth the trouble, JMO...
