Yeah, but the difference is that his parts are going to enable him to put an extra 60hp to the ground with a good tune whereas your header will add 1hp and make you think your car's faster.

Amusing how that works out, huh?

Not really at all. Waiting is waiting. His point had nothing to do with how much power its gonna make.

please dont tell me your running SSAC manifold if so be very careful and brace it if your going to be running with it. There turbos are getting good reps, wastegates are good, bovs are good and even their IC's are good but ther manis just flat out stink.

ya were running the ss manifold, because we got it for free brand new, cause they sent us the wrong one, it is already braced, but i got the cash sitting around for a way better manifold if this one breaks, so far the car has taken alot of abuse with this turbo kit, doing fine, axels were acctually first thing to go, lol. There Bov is VERY nice only prob is its 50mm and makes absolutly no noise.

Car is only seeing 8psi spring atm, thats it, waiting on funds to have a local guy fully build my motor. Then new manifold, EBC, and etc, see how it goes.

They also make your car rattle and vibrate but since you have no interior I doubt you care about that.

That appears to the 99-00 'si?? Or is it the '96-98?

If that's the 99-'00 si, I assume that that's the stock B16a2, how is that thing running with the turbo (and how much lbs are you pushing)

We all want some #'s

EDIT:
PS:, the thing looks good, I would just...if ur making a drag car (u gutted everything)- take out the dashbaord, everything, steering wheel, everything, and then just put a drag steering wheel (one that comes off) on there with the long pipe that holds the pinion going right down into the floor

Its running really well, we havnt finished tuning it because the axel is pretty much gone. The b16 is holding up alot better then i thought, its not going over 8psi till i get some low compression pistons tho. it is a 99-00 i dont think they made a si from 96-98, I got motor mounts already there going in with everything else. Hopefuly have numbers by end of july, my tuner is going to school for 9hours a day atm, so gotta wait for that to end be4 we can finish the tune.
