Default B16a2 swapted to 96 delsol with greddy kit...what now? opinions

Hey all,
new to the forum and not sure if i should put all or part of this here and the other in F/I.

heres the deal;
96 Honda Delsol G.Black
Full B16A2 swap
Greddy Turbo Kit for 2000si running 5.5 pnd boost
Full AEM dress kit on the engine bay
Greddy Big Front Mount Intercooler
Jun Ultra Light Flywheel and 3 puck clutch
Heads up display
190whp dyno tested, not tuned. (still running rich as hell from the kit-)

NOTE : I LIVE IN Alaska so on shipping...
so, now that was all last year.. Now what to do this year? Just looking for opinions on kits (BuddyClub?) , rims (thinking DV-8 17") best place to buy and shipping. I got pictures that i will post this week between classes on the install. Anyone have JDM parts for sale? Anyone with kits and pics would be great. I also need to know what tranny i should switch two, (mine has the MNFCTR. defect of shitty syncros) So what tranny to switch to... What Boost controller brand is best? stick with greddy? what about turbo timers? same questions? and Ive read on the F/I forum that 9-10pnds boost is perfectly fine with stock internals??Comments? Any one else have the same setup?? what i have people done with interiors and how did they do it? costs? Winter is here and ive pulled it and will rip the car apart to frame so I really can go anyway with this. Just a beginning of the topic and will add over the winter as the project goes along. all replys appreciated.


post replys or email : esteely@hotmail.com

thanks

i'll leave all the turbo questions to the big boys, and ill answer your body kit/rim questioon..
most people on this board frown upon big bold, INVADER type body kits. Imho, get something subtle yet noticeable. It may be a body kit, or simply a lip and side skirts(check out JDMshit.com for some examples). As for wheels, if you are SET on 17's, make sure they are light... personally, I think 16's would work best on your ride, but its up to you.
cheers.
