If I ever do my 350whp SOHC build...

Precision SC50 (.48 a/r)
Lovefab manifold
Tial 38mm
3" downpipe -&gt; 3" cat -&gt; 3" exhaust
Zex 105300 cam (turbo SOHC cam)
Flamenco-T oil feed/return lines
HKS SSQV BOV
ACT XTSS clutch w/street disk
Gator Racing Stage 2 axles
Uberdata w/ 3 bar MAP
Walbro 255lph standard pressure fuel pump

You sure your motor's up to it? I know it's built, but you had problems a while back didn't you? Get those sorted out first.

I would go with 72lb just to be safe.

I also would run aftermarket axles. I broke two stock ones this summer. One launching the other during massive thrid gear wheel hop.

Stock water and oil pump would be fine. There are some mods you can make to the stock oil pump to make it flow better. I can find the link when I get home.

also over 300whp i would go with a good MSD setup, or something to control ur ingintion timing and what not, Hondata S200 with boost option and a 3 bar
or urberdata or chrome, something on the lines, of a standalone, AEM EMS if ur a baller

Also ur going to need some Tranny work, the shorting gears of a y8 tranny is good, but if u want it to hold up, look into getting carbon coated sinkros and a stage 3 or a 6 puck or 4 puck clutch with a 10 to 12 pound flywhell, gator stage 2 axels should be good

extended studs for mounting slicks is also a great upgrade
Big Front mount Intercooler, for up to 400whp
Mount Mounts, JimFab or Inserts should be alright
u can also look into trackson bars, with that much power, wheel hop is going to happen, i installed my omni power full coilovers and it took some of the wheel hop out of my turbo y7.

I'd be more worried about the differential than getting carbon coated synchros.

Yep, I just picked a quaife lsd, I got through this year with stock dif and stock axles, but I know it wasn't going to last long. And I'm going to be giving Earl a call soon too, benson time.

You should start a new thread instead of taking over someone elses.

Get real engine management like a hondata,uberdata or neptune and bring it to a real tuner and that problem will go away.
