I was totally unaware that this was going on, I haven't been on in a good year or so.

Criticism if i may...
1. The turbo is too big for your setup and will produce unnecessary lag with no real gains on a stock block setup
2. The injectors are very large...also unnecessary unless you're running E85
3. The stock fuel rail will work just fine...
What are your goals and what's your budget?? Do you realistically plan to build in the near future?? If not, why are your parts significantly larger than necessary??

its all good. all criticism is welcome.
anyway, i ordered it through cheapturbo.com, i told them my setup and they recommended a smaller trim and a different wheel. so i mean i went with what they said. as far as building it up, i was going to change the compression a little to 9:1 and sleeve the block, but other than that i dont see how doing that will make my motor measure up to that turbo. unless you are talkin like porting the head and changing the IM and even bumping up the compression a little, going ls vtec, boring it out, blah blah...and i bought bigger parts to just buy them once instead of increasingly buy injectors over time. and the stock fuel rail is good for what 450hp? but oh well...let me know...

If you're going to build, then that turbo isn't terrible; however, there are probably a lot better ones for you...depending on your goals and budget of course. Also, if you have the money, why not upgrade the fuel rail...my point was this: the money could be better spend somewhere else.
