Give me your opinions on my current build.... am I missing anything else?
Just wanted to put out a list of what I got so far for my build up, possibly for some critique/help. What do you guys think I’ll be making with this setup if tuned properly on a stock B18C1? And is there any parts that I might’ve missed? I'm aiming for ~ 300 whp range. Your opinions are greatly appreciated. Thanks,
Nick
Turbocharger – T3/T04E 60 trim
Exhaust Manifold – BMC AC comp. SS Elf manifold w/ external WG flange
Downpipe – BMC T3 5bolt flange, 2.5” to 3” w/ flex pipe
Dumptube – BMC tial flange
WasteGate – Tial 38mm .5 bar spring
Intercooler – Street Imports 22x9x3
Blow off valve – Greddy type RS
Fuel Management – P28 chipped ecu dataloging port option - from 93turbo16
OBD2A to OBD1 harness
Fuel Pump – Walbro 255 hp
Injectors – 450 dsm's w/ OBD1 clips and 10 ohlm resistors
FPR - AEM
Intercooler Piping – Jcwhitney DIY 2.5” pipes (Are this "aluminized" steel pipes a treat to performance?)
T-bolt clamps/couplers - standard
Oil drain/feed lines – Tuner Toys kit
Vacuum Manifold – homemade
Gauges – Autometer Boost, FP, & OP
Catch Can - NRG
MBC - Turbo XS single
Spark plugs – still needed
Radiator – ??? Do I really need an aftermarket aluminum one for my setup?

you aint gonna hit 300 WHP with a T3.
whats the stage 3 wheel for ? you gonna get it put on and balance and run $$ more than it is to buy a new turbo ? very mismatched BTW for a turbo.
it MIGHT hit 300 but youll be runnin 15 psi Plus .
440CC injecotrs max out at 300. you need a FPR to bump up the pressure * NOT B&M cuz it doesnt work for turbo applications*

Well, it seemed like a cheap fix for a cheap turbo. I didn't really think about the pitfalls of the wheel installation, if any were applicable. I thought it was fairly plug n play.
So in that case would the stock wheel be good enough for 250 whp assuming I'll be running 8lbs of boost, since the dsm injectors are a limiting factor?

fix for runnin DSM injectors and u wanan run 300 WHP ... bump up the fuel pressure via a GOOD pressure regulator . not b&M .
itll do 250 .. at roughly 10-11 psi and thatll max out your stock honda map sensor. after that youll have to go 3 bar or 2.5 motorotlla bar map sensor ( depending what fuel management you use)
p.s. that manifold is wayyyyy overkill for a t3 turbo
