Hey Pete finally got the car back and it's going into the shop Thursday to get turbo'd. Here is a list of whats going in. We'll definitely have to have another dyno session I want to tune this bad boy.

T3/T4 Turbo (.57 a/r I believe)
SFP Custom Manifold
Slim line Cooling fan
Custom 2.5" DP
Custom IC Piping
Spearco Large Front Mount IC
Tial Wastegate 35mm
Vortech FMU (adjustable)
RC 310 CC Inj.
Turbonettics IC Connectors
Blitz DD BOV
New Ex. gaskets
All Oil lines and return lines...
Greddy boost gauge
Greddy EGT gauge
Magnacore wires
NGK plugs
missing link
Walbro fuel pump
Hayame Adjustable cam gears
and maybe a greddy Turbo Timer.

I will only be running 6.5psi for now until I can build up the bottom end, but I am expecting between 245-265whp. Not to bad at all, lemme know what you think. Also let me know if that dyno place you were talking about has a website. Are they a DynoJet or a Dyno like the one we went to in Pottstown? I think the one we went to was giving us low numbers. I believe there is a difference.

how much did you pay for all that jazz. im trying to not spend a fortune , but want to run about 8lbs and ill be happy . . . . . for a while at least.
i think the site is modifiedmotorsports.com or something like that.
the one we went to was a dynojet i believe.
anyway , the reason i posted this is to see if its really worth it to get the tial wastgate upgrade, the missing link bypass or the reg bypass, piping diam upgrade, etc, etc, etc, / im new to turbo

I got the cam gears pretty cheap off of Amish, because he sold his Integra and didn't need them (they are brand new). For the whole setup I am spending around $4700. It's not to bad at all considering the quality parts. I believe my IC piping is 2.25", I forgot if it was 2.5 or 2.25. Anyway when I talked to Elliot he said ITR's could run 6-8psi safely but I don't want to chance it at 8psi until I get a wideband o2 sensor. I think I am going with the FJO wideband. Anyway you should definitely do it, with your NOS setup it would be badass. F all those who say ITR's shouldn't be turbo'd

Hey, I thought it was you.. You converted it over to what, a wet system or a plate?

Boost is the way to go, nothing to refill!
