I placed my order today through PracingInc. I ordered the turbo kit, but not the fuel management as I am doing some research. I might be going with a Microtech LT-8s, but I am not sure as of yet. Anyways, I will post pics when the kit arrives,

def will be watching this...

good luck Jon! keep us updated my man!

 

Yeah keep us updated.

 

keeping my eye on this thread. very interested in buying this kit also

 

watching

 

cool, are you planning on keeping the internal wastegate?

 

i would assume, with 8psi of boost the internal gate will work fine.

 

 

I am going to see what it will do with the internal gate first,.. I might go external later.

I went ahead and ordered a greddy egt gauge, greddy boost gauge, and an aem uego wb gauge. I am going to discuss fuel with a local tuner/good friend of mine to decide what I am going with. I will keep everyone posted,

what BOV did you get? GReddy RS?

 

Guess you are taking one for the team. Would be interesting to see how this turns out.

 

Please share lots of pics and tell us how this turns out

 

Good luck man. I just ordered mine yesterday through Ptuning out here in VA. One of my buddies has it on his car now and said it pulls like a beast, so I can't wait til mine comes in. Hope everything goes well 4 u.

 

theres no need for external wastegate. also, the greddy manifold wont have an opening for it anyways.

if u want to turn up boost, use a boost controller. it manipulates the vacuum line before it hits the internal wastegate. turboXS manual boost controller is decent. u can try electronic BC's if u have the money but i wouldnt do it.

 

I agree with the no external gate. That manifold is beautiful, dont destroy it.

 

oh and btw, it wasnt necessary in buying both EGT and wideband gauge. EGT is another way of reading a/f. hotter=leaner, etc. i'd get oil pressure in place of one of those.

 

pics of ur buddies car?

 

I agree!

 

hmm...after looking at the greddy manifold again, i'm surprised they went with the SUS type manifold instead of cast-iron like all their other turbo manifolds.....i wonder why...
