are you kidding? we are all giving you knowledge and oppinions, problem is that you have allready decided and everyone telling you different can f-off, u have been given knowledge about the turbo(good one), the anti surge cover(dont get it) and oilsystem (border line but ok with proper ducting) oilhose to turbo from ebay (cmon its premade to gt35r and all) think its an4 with adapters to be drop in!, cooling system wont suffice if u live where its hot, as for fuel u asked for advice and i said id2000 since the rotary is sensitive enough vs detonation so why be cheap with such a crucial part? u rather pay for a rebuild? and psi vs stock ports? wtf have the ports to do with it? what fuel and what support mods is the question!
allthou.... all this u could have found by searching or googling,

You don't need to spend all that money on Injector Dynamics. Find yourself a matched set of Bosch EV14 from Fuel Injector Connection and save yourself some money and from being a victim of marketing hype.

It looks like garrett sent me the cast in ported housing anyway on my gt35r. I know someone talked about it serving as a boost leak earlier in this thread. Should i really expect to see any issues with this or should i return the turbo?

No need to return the turbo, see if they'll let you swap out compressor covers.

Anti-surge won't kill you (and will sound cool) but it will hurt response a bit.

Ah damn i really don't want to hurt response what so ever even if its just a little bit. They also sent me at t4 undivided when i needed a t4 divided exhaust manifold. I doubt they would be too thrilled to have to swap both sides of the turbo. Even though it was their mistake. I saw the order from the shop that ordered it and it was very clear what i wanted.

So i just got off the phone with garrett. They said it was their mistake on the non divided exhaust housing they accidentally grabbed the wrong one and put it on. He said they put the cast in ported housing on because he knew it was for drifting and said that under no circumstances should i try to run a non anti-surge housing with all the constant in and out of boost fluctuations. They are the biggest turbo brand in drifting so i guess i will take there word for it.

This! I ordered a pair of RC 750cc's and it took over a month to receive them. I would have had no problem waiting if they would have emailed me back at all to let me know what was going on.

Yeah their customer support is crap. I called 25 times yesterday just to get them to answer the phone. I have found that 4pm - 5pm eastern time is the only time i can sometimes get an answer. I doubt they are that busy that they cant answer the phone. They claimed they have been having horrible weather with constant on and off power but its probably just excuses. The lady that is always the one to finally answer said my order on some pipe for my manifold should be being shipped out today and it damn well better. It has been about 7 days since their website said it has been packaged and ready for shipment.

Negative. That is not a built in oil restrictor. Look at the 35R restrictors on ATP Turbo, they are very small. .030" if I remember correctly.

Ok so i was told i should be using 2 inch stainless steel pipe for my manifold runners. Since its pipe its actual size is 2.37 OD & 2.15 ID. But to me this just does not look doable whatsoever. Even with heating them and hammering them into shape how am i supposed to make the shape it just looks to big. Was i misinformed? Should i have gotten 1.5 inch pipe which is actually 1.90 OD & 1.68 ID? Im kinda pissed cause thats what himni racing said i should be using and now im sitting on a couple hundred bucks worth of pipe i may not be able to use and i cut my own engine flange so i would have to remake that too which is more wasted money. I posted some pictures below any advice will be greatly appreciated.

You should be using 1.5" pipe, above size adds a lot of lag. Also that is a built in restrictor, which they all have, however you still need an external unit.

Thanks for the tip. Maybe this place will let me exchange it but im still screwed on having to make a new engine flange as the holes are now to big. Himni Racing gave me horrible advice.

You can still use it if you have to. You cut the round straights, and add a flat section to cut down the cross section for the flange entrance.
