Default Where all the SOHC boosters at?

Anyway… I’m at a JDM d15b right now in a del sol and I’m planning to boost in the future. I’m totally new to the darkside but I’ve been reading. I would appreciate ANY feedback/flames. I’m planning to work with the GREDDY turbo kit to start myself off and maybe a front mount intercooler or side mount (depending which ever I need to obtain my goal). My goal is 200 whp DAiLY DRiVEN. If Possible? Thanks in advance. My car is pretty much bone stock right now.

9-10lbst on a inercooled greddy kit will make 200whp easy, tuning is your key to how long it will last

Some groundwork:
Cheap Reliable Fast - Pick 2
Expect things not to work.
Have a daily driver in reserve.
Things are going to break and/or **** you off - Patience and money go far.
You will still lose races this will also **** you off.
Every action has an opposite and equal reaction.
Do alot of research. Read twice and purchase once.

That should get you started.

We're here man. You can definately meet your goals with the Greddy kit and I would recommend going with the front mount intercooler.

Im running 9lbs (60 trim .48 ar) daily on a z6 with 165k on it. compression tested around 205.

It's a fun car to drive, nothing to wild, but really fun. It's in a del sol also.

Damn 11secsohc, where the heck have you been hiding? 400whp is pretty impressive on a stock head.

Word.

Z6 w/ 230k+ on the block, bone stock
TD04 14G (Yes, 14G)
JRC 6" FMIC
Uberdata- semi-tuned

7psi daily driven w/ a horrible oil leak.

No where near fast enough, but much better than stock.
