BNR turbos bolt onto stock manifold.

Move the 720s to primaries, and get 850 secondaries or you can go larger if you want, although there would be no reason to unless you want to go for more power later. You also need a standalone or Power FC(JDM one for FCs). S-AFC might not be enough for that kind of power goal. I'm personally running Microtech and I like it for the most parts I'm putting down about 280-290rwhp right now. The only thing that's keeping me from putting down 300+ is the stock TMIC. You WILL need FMIC for that kind of power. I'm running stock TMIC right now but I wouldn't do it if I had money for FMIC... I also don't know if FD pump is enough for 300-350rwhp. I think it should be but other people can chime in here because I don't know the capability of FD pumps. I guess that's about it...

Standalone: $700-1000
850 secondaries: $200
FMIC: $1000 for Greddy, cheaper if you can make one by yourself.
Plus however much the BNR turbo costs... I think that's about it... oh yeah. Get upgraded radiator if you don't have one already.

Good luck and always make sure you're car is tuned properly!

stage iii for 300-350rwhp.

oh, and i'd probably ditch the FD pump and get a Walbro.

BNR is (205) 640-1193 FYI.

thank you for the advice. I am looking into the new fuel upgrades right now. I have a T04b hybrid right now and I think that there is a problem in the turbine because it makes a horrible noise (sounds like an exhaust leak) from the turbo area when it is idling or when I shift.

Also I was looking into the Microtech, but I want to buy something that an tuner near by would be used to. I see that your in Ohio, is your tuner used to the Microtech system because if so I would surley make the drive down to Ohio to get it tuned right because there isnt a tuning shop near me at all!

Thanks again,
Josh

Thanks a bunch! yeah the FD pump isnt to bad now but I know that as soon as I go with a larger turbo setup I would be in trouble. Thanks for their number also, I am going to give them a jingle.
