Im pretty sure its an s5 turbo on it(s4 engine) nothing crazy in terms of power, I will be running the fmic, free flowing intake, and a 3 inch exhaust with a muffler, and maybe a resonator if I can fit it under my car, Im looking for a FCD becasue Ive heard alot about boost creep problems. I plan on porting the crap out of the wastegate, and If I can afford it buy an SAFC and a wideband and upgrade secondary injectors.
IM thinking that I should be running close to 250hp maybe?
ive been told people runnign around 250 with an sr20 corolla can break azenis rt615's loose in 3rd with no clutch. Eventually I would like to run around 300hp.

So I got the engine in for good now, Ported the wastegate and installed/sealed all block off plates, Installed RCA\'s, modded the oil pan for clearance and welded teh rad support back in. Then towed it back from the shop I was using back home so now I dont have limited hours I can work on it, it just sucks because I was in an awesome shop, but theres no room for my car.

you'd be surprised actually im a 19yr old student who barely works, im so poor haha and yea i do have a lovely girlfriend who i live with who puts up with my cars lol. i actually havent spent too much after i sold my old drivetrain set up. i guess you could say im pretty good at finding good deals and stuff i can make profits from and wheeling and dealing lol!
it does save a lot of money when you do every little piece of work yourself too
p.s. its nice to see people are interested in my build

I have no idea what series it is, Also im in no situation to be buying anything right now, I dont have much money. I'm not too worried about the clutch the only reason i have it is because I got it for free, Maybe Ill buy the replacement housing sometime in the summer and install it next winter.
