do a search...but as for off the top of my head. That new turbo is going to need more fuel, and I would replace all emmision equipment with striaght through piping to help your turbo boost quicker so u wont have so much lag. Then u will need more rubber and suspension so u can launch with your new found horsepower without ripping your car apart. Some gauges would help as well as a good reliable tune. Replacing vacuum hoses with silicone is a good idea as well as replacing your plastic AST with an aluminum one. Then the Y-pipe should be replaced if you are running high boost with the efini y-pipe. A new bigger radiator would be good because FD's run too hot. I can continue for days. IT is a hell hole of a money pit but props on the standalone ECU...a nOOb who got the most important thing first is always good to see.

normal single turbo stuff.

make sure you have the fuel delivery equipment to cope with ~350-450hp. (injectors, pump) make sure you are fully tuned for the boost you run. there are no plug and play ECU's for single turbo's so get with a good tuner in your area (search the regional forums) and get the A/Fr checked.

If you have a Greddy single, then why is your username 93GEN3TT?

He has a single turbo, why would he need the Y-pipe?
