550/2000 is already overkill for what I'm shooting for with the twins and stock port, 1000/2000 will be waaaay over kill lol.

And yeah I'm going to order them from FIC, just need to get my lazy *** up to do it.

I was hoping to get first fire of the new motor tomorrow, but the shipping race car parts gods had other ideas in mind.


Hopefully next weekend I'll get it to fire. I'm driving the FD to this dynotune whether it's to watch or to tune damnit!

Hopefully parking next to Izzy will inspire mine to be quicker at autox this season.

I think a picture of the turbo is necessary.

couple things,

Bill, I have a local guy with 500r FD that may need a tune (he does but I dk if he's already got something lined up or not) but I linked him to the FB group so he may be in if there's still spots but I told him asap on deposit so I'll lyk if he's in.

here's bill turbo...i have no idea what kind but it is biggg and scarey looking


and ZE Power MX6 I just ordered my 2000s from Ihor at IRP. Figured I'd give the rotary boys the business and they are decently priced. Give him a shout if you haven't already ordered.

anyone have a datalogit they wouldn't mind loaning to me for a few days? :-)

IRP has them for $165, I think they are $10 more than FIC for each injector.

Front mount ordered, let's see if I can get this on before the 11th. If anything I may come down and watch if all the spots fill up.
If I don't have my own wide band, do they have options for that?
