Default chocolatesk8er's stock gsr turbo build

I guess i'll start out with the story behind my car...

In January I bought a full gsr swap in hopes of putting it in my ls. Then about a week later I came across a 97 milano red shell for $800 on craigslist and went to look at it. I ending up buying it and having it towed to a buddies house who has a huge garage. It only took us a few hours one night to get it mounted in the car, but the wiring was a pain... The car had been stolen and was fully stripped. The thieves thought it would be quicker to just cuz the wiring harness... So I had to go to a junkyard and piece together a new harness and solder about all 50 wires. Here's what it looked like when I finally got it home.




I was still having problems with the vtec and crank sensor wiring... I finally got all that figured out and it was running great. I quickly swapped wheels with my ls and got some Yonaka full coilovers.





And here it is as it sits today




Well now i've decided to go the turbo route and have started to piece together my turbo kit.

First off here's my plan: shooting for 300whp

Stock gsr motor
Garrett 57 trim .63 ar
Lovefab Ramhorn ac compatible w/ 3 downpipe
Tial wastegate 38mm
Ebay intercooler piping 2" hotside 2.5" cold
Revhard Intercooler
F1 stage 3 6 puck clutch w/ pro-lite flywheel
precision 525 injectors
N1 style 3" exhaust
Mishimoto half size radiator
hks ssqv bov
honda s200 p28
walbro 255 fuel pump

not sure on what boost controller yet.

looking to run 10 lbs and hopefully make around 300whp


heres pictures of all the stuff I have bought so far:











Still waiting for the turbo, fuel pump, and bov to come in

I plan to get it tuned sometime in December by T1!

Open to all suggestions and comments!
