I started a topic on my site about the rebuilding/moding of my car, and it got shot down. so i deleted it, its nice being a mod. Any ways, i got a few new toys for my car along with a new trans (thanks Hellotbone) any ways, here is my list of thing i got coming.

New Trans
New Trans mount
New Trans filter and fluid
RRE's Upper Intercooler pipe (Type S Flange)
RRE's Ad-UICP
Greddy Type S Bov
Greddy Turbo Timer
Greddy Profec B 2
Auto Metter 3 piller gauge pod
Auto Metter oil and A/f gauge
Injen Intake and air filter
SBR Evo 3 w/34mm flapper mod and Inlet ported
Revised Lifters
SBR Install kit.

I know I will need fuel mods to run higher boost and such, I plan on getting a 190lph, 550s and an SAFC. I have talked with SBR and know where to set the boost at and things of that nature. But then i get kicked in the arse, and every thing that i got is junk, over kill for this, and that. Im setting my car up along the lines of a friends of mine and RRE's and the list here at tuners. Im just trying to make my car a bit faster not like a rocket. sorry i had to vent :(

Who told you you had overkill :confused:

Not sure where you're going, but the first thing to do when you start modding any car is to determine what results you want and what kind of budget you have to spend (including labor if not a DIYer).

I think you're on the right track, and would consider a fuel pump and exhaust your next upgrades :thumb:
 
I don't see a LICP and you didn't need to get an A/F since that will not help you but makes for a good light show.

You will also need some sort of datalogging capability. If you haven't already gotten the AFC, you may want to think about DSMlink since you have a 95 and most likely have an Eprom ECU.
 
Oh yeah, might help if i put on what is already on the car huh :coy:

on the car now is:
Apexi N1 Cat back
Custom 2.5 inch down pipe
Auto meter boost/vac 30/30
Auto meter trans temp


and im pritty much doing this my self with the help of a friend and some family members. My goal is around 340-400 mark with out to much of problems. Im not looking to do 8's like russ in his auto, just brake the 15 sec mark and kill some v8s in my neighborhood. Thanks for the input guys, makes this dsm'er a happy dsm'er :thumb:
 
sounds good bro :)
if i were u i would also do all the free mods before u move on and also make sure the car is in good running condition since u dont want to dump loads of money into a poor or below average car (tuneup compression test *timing belt AND tension etc.)
good luck :thumb:
 
I have so many things going on at once, dont know what is up and down any more ROFL

I have the free mods done, and im fixing an oil leak on the belt side and also doing the Tbelt, water pump, all the pullys and belts and things. Im getting it ready for the shoot out, not going to run but at least be another dsm'er there. :dsm:
 
Im going to stray from topic a bit here, I have the profec b2, Im reading the book and says to tap where im taped allready for my boost gauge. Where else can i tap or get a 4way tee? :confused:
 
If you didn't want to make it a rocket ship and just a little faster some suporting mods along with a datalogger and safc2 for tuning would have got you and your little 14b into the high 12's. of course you would need some good suporting mods and good tuning but it would have been cheaper than going and getting that big of a turbo and now having to kinda sit on your hands cause you can't turn the boost up and utilize it cause of great lack of fuel.
 
Oh sorry bout that I take for granted the things us 1g guys have. I could say you could have bought a 14b but I'm not gonna lie if it wasn't free I wouldn't buy a 14b I would have got a 16g too.
 
Thanks DSM90AWD , ill give that a shot, when i get to install it, I did't know if having two T's on the same line would effect one another or not. But thanks :thumb:

No biggy there, I was going to get a 14b, but the guy wanted $300 for it rebuilt. If i was going to get a 14b i would have steped my mods down abit, but still waiting on my Evo 3 and a few days till my trans get's here then i can get it started.
