donno about the #'s yet, will have it on the dyno when i have chance some day.
But we take a estiamte of that should making anywhere around 300whp at 7lbs.

for the MAF, most of my part has been change. That i belive will have no problem with the MAF. The car has just partialy tuned today, which the MAF has been set. Only the problem is the Greedy eManager for the throttle body control. Tunner is reading flat line when try to tune it, I know that if using the plug & play wire the problem will go away, but i don't feel why have spend another 300 bucks for the stuff that greedy sell has bugs. once again Greedy

I will post more tech. spec later on when the car is done(sometime on the coming week) Beside the fuel managerment and the BOV turob etc... mainfold and all the piping is custom made.

I'm using the emanager from greedy not ultimate. was try to go for standalone ecu but find out that alot thing won't function which i decide just go for the greedy until some one come out with stock ECU board replacement (what i hear some one is going come out for the replacement ecu board)

The greedy kit has some kind of bugs i belive, if you go buy for the plug & play wire you may have no more problem. But i'm not going to spend 300 bucks more due to Greedy them self has bugs, my shop is finding out what is going on with that.
You have to get your own tunner to tune that Greedy, every car setup is different. my setup will not fit your setup which we are running different turbo size and piping etc...

You will need a fairly large turbine to get 300whp @ 7lbs. On a GT30R I've seen 330whp on 9lbs, so I assume you are running a similar sized turbine.

Looks like a large to4s compressor housing with 4" inlet.. if it is a gt series it is either a 3071 or 3076.. but the turbine housing is confusing.. looks to be a centered turbine housing which is not so hot of an item... mabey it is just an optical illusion.. good luck with your 300whp at 7 psi Let us know how it turns out!

i have precision turbo sc61, which i belive it is bigger than the gt30r. I will release all the detail later on when i get my car sometime this week.

just don't forgot that not only turbo making the HP, my custom made = lenght header is adding HP + custom from header all the way to the exhuast. and the custom piping for all the cooling and intake. Even i got the Greedy emanager tune, the stock map is suck.

Just my setup i didn't want to risk to boost up double digi, so just running 7lbs as now. Too bad that at first gear the stock clutch already slip when boost, stage 4 clutch and fly wheel is going to be install on coming week

Calvin, the reason the emanage is not reading your throttle position is because you have not installed the grey TPS wire. It's funny non of the emanage manuals talks about it...

Look in here make sure you are wired up correctly.

Good luck

plug and play harness doesnt do anything that you cant do yourself with some t-taps.... the "bug" is between the steering wheel and seat

Check out the upper radiator hose connection -It's gone! OMG, how are you getting water into the block? I see a AN type fitting in it's place - but it looks too small, it's easily a third the size of the stock radiator hose. Who ever custom made this turbo has some big brass "@#@$"! I hope it works good.
