Default Putting my turbo kit together, help me out please...

Ok, I will list the part and then the specific one, help me piece together a good kit:

Turbo: My goal is around 230whp - 250whp, this is a street car
Precision: SC50, SC34, SC61 or other model?

Manifold: I am gonna use a DRAG manifold

Intercooler: Using precision intercooler, dimensions = 26.75L X 6.2H X 3.5D

Piping: Should I use the DRAG piping or make my own piping and use some high temp paint from duplicolor or something and paint it black to prevent rust and make it look better?

DP: Using DRAG 2.5"

Wastegate: Should I use the Tial 38 or 40mm?

BOV: Greddy Type S or HKS SS?

Engine management: Since the boost will be low I will start with a Vortech FMU, what ratio? If I raise boost I will go with Hondata down the line.

Injectors: Do I need injectors? My thought is no.

Fuel pump: Needed? I think no on this too, if so I will go Walbro.

Thanks for the help guys.

For that hp goal i would use an sc50

Why a drag mani?

Drag piping is fine for you goals but is pretty pricey if you can have the ability to do the piping yourelf i would go that route

Why not 3inch downpipe.......wanna keep your a/c?

38mm, 40 is way overkill

BOV is your preference both have about the same holding ability

Ditch the fmu and spend the money for engine management your car will thank you and it will give you the peace of mind

Get injectors, for that power you should look into 550's to leave yourself with a little room for expansion in the future

Yes get a pump, walbora 255 is about a 100 bucks and that should do the trick.

hope this helpful
