pics up for turbo vert! newb alert: all in to help please.

ok, here are pics of the engine. I don't know what engine this is, I don't know what size turbo is on it, (but it seems to spool at about 3200 rpm) I don't know what size injectors are on it (I don't know dick) I am posting this so you guys can help me out. If there are any tips from anyone that may help me to figure out what is on this beeotch, please share. thanx guys.

ok, I am dying to turn up the wick on this thing, seeing that it is only getting 8psi of boost. I want to turn it up bad. (already, this car is braking the tires loose when the 8psi kicks in 1st gear around 35mph!) any checklist or major things I need to check? How the hell do you turn up the boost on these things? fuel pressure?

Please don't turn up the boost until you know what is on the car. Where did you get it? You really need to know what is on the car: Fuel pump, injectors, turbo, computer, exhaust, boost controller, IC.... the list goes on.

ok, like I said, this is not the stock turbo. These are not the stock injectors. And try to keep the LOL's to a minimum. All I want is some help in identifying what parts are on this car so that I can tell what to do next.

From what I can see it appears to be the "stock" turbo. I say "stock" because the verts in america didnt come with a turbo option so its not really stock. Oh and im pretty sure the ham glaze on the heat shield is at least 5-10hp . It appears to me to be a 13bt with re amemiya ic pipes and way to many accessory belts. Take some pics of the intercooler itself for me and ill try my best to identify that too. Also are there any fuel computers in your car that you know of? Little blue guy that says safc on it? Maybe a greddy emanage underneath the passenger carpet? If not I doubt you have upgraded injectors either but again the only way to tell would be to take off the uim and get a picture for us.

Edit: also take a pic straight on of the turbo that would be much more useful than a picture of the heatshield and coolant line.
