Ready to order Turbo + extras!!! Think I know all I need?
Ok guys, I"m finally ready to join the elite group of V8 *** kickin' turbo honda's/acura's!! I'm gonna go w/ the drag III kit(was considering waiting or drag IV, but nobody knows details or when it's comming out) I'm gonna list everything else I think I'll need and any help, suggestios of parts to change or upgrade or delete from my list would be great!! btw, this is for a 01 GSR and I will be running 8-9 psi for now until hopefully later this summer when I can find a spare block to send to GE for re-sleeving, I just bought some eagle rods from Damon's awesome groupbuy!!
Drag III kit
Hondata 2b
p28 or p72 ecu
obd1 to obdII wiring harness
Walbro Gss342 fuel pump
MDS 6AL or BTM?
MSD Blaster 2 coil w/ modified cap
Plug Wires(brand?)
550 injectors(probably RC's, but might get something larger becaue I plan on re-building later this year?)
Hi-flow cat, or maybe just loose the cat?
Custom Exhaust(dual mufflers, I know I'll get flammed but yeah well I like it)
Tial wastegate upgrade along w/ 90 elbow
Proably Autometer electrical gauges because I don't have $700 to spend on greddy or Apexi but the following gauges: Boost, EGT, Fuel/Oil Pressure
I'm also considering a Wideband air/fuel gauge from the link that was just posted a few days back if I can get it decently cheap?
Was also considering something along the lines of a J&S safeguard but dont' really think it will be necessary if I have everything tunned great!
Probably going with a Greddy profec B unless somebody can recommend something better/easier for around the same price.
I think I'll also get some solid motor mounts and maybe Z10 radius arms once I see how bad wheel hop/traction is.
Was also considering the nitrous express kit that bolts to the intercooler, it just sprays a small amount of nitrous to cool intake temps, I hear it's supposed to work pretty well when it's sooo damn hot out.
I already have a clutchnet Stage II and a 7.5lb aluminum flywheel. I also have Koni coilver so that should help w/ traction somewhat.
Sorry for the long post but thanks sooo much for everyones help and suggestions to get me going with the project, I"m sure I'll have a lot more questions as I'm ordering/installing everything.
