**UPDATE!!!** Started on my little project ;) GSR Turbo install
So i started my turbo install a week ago and so far everything is going really well. I'm not too far along but i'm getting excited so i thought i'd post up my progress pics. About a week ago i pulled all my stock exhaust off, removed the front bumper, and took out the radiator and intake. Today me and my friend took out my a/c and mated the SLS Shorty with the 57 trim I absolutely cannot wait till spring...i'm shooting for 350 whp.
Let me know what you think!

Update!!! Intercooler is on along with most of the piping. Tial bov is on along with the dp. Feed line is also set up but the return is gonna take some time to figure out Just the wastegate and a few odds and ends to wrap it all up! I'm really happy with how it's all coming along and everything is going smooth...so far lol.

Thanks...it's been a long road already.
No, I rebuilt the block this summer. JE pistons (-1.17 dish), all new main and rod bearings...all of them blueprinted, polished crank, bored to 81.5mm, fresh hone, arp headstuds, cometic headgasket, and hondata intake manifold gasket.

I have the same SLS shorty and love it. I can't wait to see more progress AND some dyno numbers for this thing. You can make a lot more than 350whp on that setup provided you have the fuel to do it...

I like the whole setup and i think you did a great job picking out parts that work well together. My only concern would be with the injectors...550cc's are going to be getting close to max at or soon after 350whp.

How can it be huge for 350whp?
It is the turbine sizing that counts when you are matching a wastegate, Big housing needs bigger wastegate to be able to control the low boost.
or was this only a joke i didnt understand
Anyway, a clean looking teg. Are you not going to use any exhaust system?
why is that?

^^a 38mm would have been fine for that turbo/manifold combo, but it doesn't hurt to go bigger.
To the OP: I hope you plan to run an exhaust because i can tell you first hand that open downpipe gets REALLY old fast. I had 2 setups with open DP for a while (2.5" and 3")

that's not my setup that's SMRCRX's setup....i knew he was going to confuse people when he took my list and changed it. I am running a full exhaust 3" with a magnaflow muffler. Yea i wanted to go with a 44mm to avoid any chance of boost creep with lower boost...yea i spent more and it may not have been needed but o well. My setup is as follows
SLS Shorty Manifold
T3/T04e 57 trim
3" Downpipe
Custom exhaust 3" all the way back
Tial BOV
Tial 44mm wastegate
Spearco intercooler
RC Autoworks Charge pipes
RC 550cc injectors
Walbro 255 lph fuel pump
Hondata s200 on a p28

Yea i am considering upgrading to 720's but i don't wanna get too crazy so i might just have it tuned until the 550's are being fully "used" but not maxed out. Maybe a little less than 350 whp. We'll see how it goes

Because a 38mm would work just as effectively for that power level. I'm not saying it is a bad thing, just making an observation.
And last time I checked, a 57 trim isn't a big turbo, so I don't know what you are trying to say.

a 38mm would work fine...i agree, but it doesn't ever hurt to have something A LITTLE BIT bigger than what's necessary
