yeah, but unless he was a first time manual driver I think even if you got the jump he'd still run you down.

It's only sitting at about 300hp right now until next weekend when we bump the boost from 5.5 psi to 15 psi, hopefully the stock engine doesen't grenade

You have the stock head gasket on that thing? If you try running 15 psi with the stock gasket it will be toast in seconds. I too am planning a serious mod for my car, I'm hoping for 400 hp on the low side and 500 hp on the high side. 30+ psi, I'm getting a copper head gasket.

Well the standard gasket in the car is a Multi layer steel gasket, so I'm more then confident it will hold up fine, from all of the times we've seen headgasket failures 95% of the time was improper tuning (i.e. detonation due to aggressive timing, bad gas, plugs etc etc.)

On this setup we have a way to fully control timing, and fuel, along with other things like launch control, datalogging etc.

What is your setup going to be, if you dont mind me asking?

thats true, I'm getting a new gasket cause another guy on this site blew his gasket at 22 or 24 psi, so I'd be WAY over that limit. Plus I'm getting forged pistons so I need to take the head off anyway.

Sorry about that I was trying to find a way to tune the car from 0RPM to Redline and the 202 isn't exactly a smart place to stop on lol. We haven't had a chance to tune the car since we finished fabricating the turbo kit (especially being so hot out lately). Here's the only pic I could find of it before we finished it.




Here's another car we should be finishing up early next week it's an Altima SE-R

I'm thinking JE, the Diamond piston are only 10:1 comp. and running 35 psi with 10:1 is stupid for the street. I want to get a set of forged thats 9:1, I think JE has 9:1 but im not sure on that.

Yes but that will be later on down the road..I plan on buying a snout from intense, then keep my 2.5 on that. This way i wont have to switch pulleys.I hate doing that it's a BITCH! Just switch the snouts. Once i get my exhaust kit..i will be catless yes. As for the 60lb injectors..ill be getting that with my 2.5 and swap out the 42.5's. i want to have both setups so i can switch between the 2...and the HP tuning will allow me to do this easily I Must however, get a stage 3 clutch b4 i can even consider putting in the 60's or 2.5 lol

Can't you hear the $ burning a hole in my pocket

Thats funny, I'm leaving the stock clutch and axles in, even though I'll have like 4-500 hp! I figure until they blow, it will give me time to save and get better ones.
