Damn bro thats a badass car you got there, I have always like the way the EG's look have a friend that has one boosted D16z6 stock and let me tell you it pulls for being a single cam. That's a nice set up you got there it's gona be fast, is the trany LSD?, I got a GSR swap on my DB1 and it's stock and hopefully in the future I'll rebuild it with high compresion pistons and everything but for now it's alright, but nice ride bro.

I also just got all the pics to load. check em out
why the 78mm throttle body? thats seems to be a lil overkill. i would have gone with a 68mm at the largest if i was you. you will lose a lot of low end with that large TB. the car and engine look great though, looks like you took your time preparing everything. my guess would be anywhere from 165-175whp depending on what size exhaust you use and the tuner. i would definitely look into getting a smaller throttle body. ditch the 17" rims, those will lower the actual torque getting to the ground. nice job over all on the restoration

yo wha sup guy! da 78tb is overkill, how did u even get that 78tb to work on there, usaually the butterfly gets stuck or hits the manifolds opening when u try to open the butterfly to wot.

lol.. 78mm is a tad bit big.. infact your going to lose air flow going in.. i'd go down to a 68mm possiblely.
I wouldn't run anything by DH(dave hickman) but that is just me.
Just to gauge it, you are too big. and having the victorx which was perfectly fine at a 68mm opening made even bigger is like wow...
Goodluck non the less, i think you'll find some idle issues and lower rpm response problems down the road..

Don't want to knock on ur build but alot of ur part don't support each other honestly ditch the TB get a 68mm u got the head ported and the valve train upgrade get some cams that will make good use of the setup ITR is undercamming the motor some Blox B's or S2S2 cams and ditch the wire's save u the head ache's just get some NGK wires u wont regret it...
