Another Turbo 1st gen!!!!!

Yes another Turbo Fb!!! The 12A streetport I had was good but I wanted more so I started my turbo swap in April.
Now for the Specs:
JDM S5 13b block
Streetported
Pinned
720/1600
Microtech LT-10s
T04S p-trim turbo 1.00A/R hot side .70A/R cold side

This is the motor and trans/ test fitting:


Wiring!!!!



Swaped to gsl-se suspension for these rims: lowering springs, tokico/KYB shocks, hawk pads all round


this is everything hooked up never started waiting to go for 3" mandrel bent stainless!!!


Finally this is how it sits:



I will be getting a video when it gets back from the local rotary shop. ECU had to get sent back for repair.... firing only 3 coils....Anyways will be getting tuned for 300hp. I will be joining the 400hp club in time. Thanks for looking!!!

Especially in the wet. The other day my car pretty much changed lanes on me as I went over a crest in the wet gunning it in 4th gear. I'm only using a little turbo too

I'm very keen to hear about boost response and how wide the power band is with that turbo.

well when i was driving it i was only shifting at 3500 and i was getting 4psi. I was like wow its already spooling with little throttle so i should hit full boost around 4500.
