definately time to upgrade. do not put the t25 back on.

drive it and take it to a mechanic. check for crankwalk. price seems pretty reasonable. good sign if it is all stock. ask if it had any previous mods.

definately wideband and boost to start with

trying to install my 750cc FIC injectors and they seem too big to fit into the fuel rail. do i need to shave the top plastic part to fit them in? any suggestions help.

im currently installing my external wastegate that is run off of the o2 housing. do i need to connect a line to the top nipple or just let it release to atmosphere? i have an electronic boost controller and i saw that it might be different in this case. also, do i leave the valve seat on or take...

i just got my new turbo the other day and it seems to have a bit of shaftplay. it is the PTE 50 trim BB version. do BB turbos have some shaftplay? maybe this is eliminated when the pressure is added while running. does anyone know?

the guy who sold me the car says that the turbo is a garrett big 16g. my friend says that it is the stock turbo. i dont know who to believe. is there some sort of number or marking to identify?

just wandering how to tell what kind of turbo is on my car. supposedly it is a garret big 16g but my friend says it is a t25 or t28. how can i be sure?:D the car is a 99 gsx.

i am planning to buy a 99 gsx tomorrow and was wandering if anyone had some tips on what to look for. it has a lot of mods and i am new to the tuner scene:D
