Just waiting on stuff to come in the mail..so my setup should hopefully be here early this week...will certainly post back with results

Stock D16Y8
ARP Headstuds
New OEM headgasket
KRBFab manifold/downpipe/dumptube (props to them! they rock...my manifold was shipped out within a week)
P06 conversion to be used with cromepro
Turbonetics T3/T4 57 Trim(at least i think so...was sold to me as a plain t3, but i think its too big to be a plain t3..if anyone knows of any measurements or something i can take to be sure..please tell me)
1G DSM BOV
DSM 450cc injectors
CCA 6" FMIC
Stealth Mode Performance Stainless oil lines
NGK BKR7E Gapped to .030
Turbonetics Deltagate Wastegate
Autometer Boost Gauge
Boomslang OBD 2a --> OBD1 Harness
2.5" Charge Piping

My tuner is going to be Dave Blundell(Blundar throughout the internet community)...He is the owner/admin of pgmfi.org and lives less than an hour from me. We plan on 2 - 2.5 hours of street tuning then 1 -1.5 of dyno tuning.

He does all his dyno work at Zerolift Autolab (http://www.zerolift.com/) which is in Fairfield

His price list is here: http://www.pgmfi.org/~blundar/tuning.html

He seems to have his act together...I talked to him online for about an hour discussing my turbo setup and tuning and such..real nice guy


He is certainly considered one of the best

sweet...i was afraid to start buying all the parts i needed b/c i didn't think i could get my car tuned anywhere, so i thought it would be a waste...thanks for the info bro....what part of dayton you from and what school?

do you have other plans for your car?


i think as you search the site and other sites that you will want to do more mods....atleast i did =)

oh...i have been doing plenty of searching and reading, but very little posting.

i made a decision that performance would come way before aesthetics. So my next plans are a new set of tires, then clutch/flywheel. If money keeps coming in from my job as it has been lately, I will continue by building up the internals of my engine.

Currently I have, 4-1 dc header, tanabe cat back, aem cai, b&m short shifter..other than that, nothing too big.

I really think that my decisions towards my next mods will be finalized once my turbo is on and I can see what my car is lacking

as for your turbo being a t3/t4 .... a t3 can still be huge, the way to tell is if it looks like ... well ... 2 turbos.

T3/T04:


T3

sounds good bro...i just kind of get things as they come and i see a good price...i just saw a turbo that some1 is selling on here for $600....i am thinking hard about that....maybe once you get yours on and learn how to do it you can help me do mine ;)

i believe i have a t3/t4 as the compressor side is larger than the exhaust imo...but seeing as how it was sold to me as t3, i was looking for a concrete way to determine for sure...the only other info I have on it is that it is a 57 trim, and is a fresh rebuild...
