Custom pipes for a log type manifold is also here with a used stcok header that we will modify

SMC+ fuel piggy back is on it's way

EGT probe and guage is here together with the boost guage (autometer)

A/F from auto meter on it's way

I only need a good welder and time to do this.. but it will be done.. maybe 1 month tops!!!

Now.. any one using guage pods?? please post pics.. and where you got them and how is the fit??

nice so far...

what wastegate are you using?
BOV?
Manifold? --whose making it for you or what company is?
oil return line for the turbo?

I have a suggestion if you are making your own piping.
use summit racing U bends -not to pricey and look decent.


MISC items to consider:
Turbo timer
Home depot DIY boost controller (you want to be able to up the boost right :) LOL )
boost gauge


For the whole fuel issue what are you doing? your running a standalone? extra injectors ? investing the moeny to make the "returnless" OEM system work? -- clue me in. -- Joe
who swore NEVER AGAIN will i modify my car. to the extreme i did on my 98 civic :)

For fuel, we will be running the SMC+ unit from Zip.. he is in the bay area and he was the one who designed it. wo we will have some local tech support for it. We will be running 450 cc dsm injectors with the stock fuel pump and stock fuel pressure.

I've read that post about SMC before. Will that be enough for a turbo on our car?

I'm really excited to see how this pans out.

Good luck man!

What size turbo are you running? So you guys went with a fuel return.. I didnt want to do that so I am going the other way.. I'll be using a fuel managment from Zip (SMC+) for adding more fuel.. I didnt want to tap my stock fuel rail or run a fuel return back to the gas tank since I figured, after a few years, I might trade the EP once again for something else. Th SMC+ uses the stock fuel rail, fuel pump, but bigger injectors.
