For the BOV I would recommend the Greddy Type-S. I am very happy with mine.

 

[rb97GSX]

Thanks, anyone else?, What you think?

Agreed its a nice sound.

Drop the profec b and get a manuel boost controller. and if you dont have strick emissions laws then drop the cat and run catless, and with that money saved get yourself a 16g turbo to start with if thats all your funds for now.

 

[rb97GSX]

Like I said I'm new, won't I need some more supporting mods to go with a 16g turbo? BTW: Is the list good as is and will I need the fuel pump for what I have down there, if I upgrade turbo's it will be a lot later.
O, and also, my fault. The Apexi down pipe deletes the CAT so I'm good there.

I would do hard Upper and lower IC pipes. The stock plastic is really restrictive!

 

[diablos991]

The fuel pump is needed so that you can push the boost without leaning out. You could get the 16g down the road and just have one less thing to worry about if you have already done the fuel pump.

Running a 190 fuel pump you will be fine with a 16g. Also if you dont plan to have a FMIC soon or ever, then just like stated above get some hard intercoole pipes.

 

[hottboost]

Thats the same route I went.

Beat me to it.

Thanks, I'll also switch to a Joe P manual boost controller, I hear good things about it, unless u guys can think of a better one? And will I need the fuel pump for the set up I got listed, basically before I upgrade the turbo?, it will probably be awhile before I do.

 

[rb97GSX]

nm about the fuel pump, wow you guys type fast!
Also, will the 16g bolt right up or should I get a better manifold?

 

[rb97GSX]

anyone else?

 

[RyanJ]

16g wont bolt directly on a 2g like it will to a 1g you'll need this http://www.slowboyracing.com/shop.ph...1e48176ce4d504

From one newbie to another...so far an excellent start. I would upgrade the intercooler piping as someone stated earlier, do the bcs mod if not done, but the manual boost controller should help. Also a 1g throttle body should be good for a few ponies also.

 

[rb97GSX]

OK a few questions,

1- which is the better turbo timer, Greddy or Apexi ?

2- "do the bcs mod if not done" Whats that?

3- the slowboy racing link didn't work so I'm guessing it was a install package, AMS also has one, is that one good as well?

4- Does the 1g throttle body just swap right in? and can I add it before the turbo?

Thanks

 

[red95gst209]

you can also get some more air flow from a first gen intake manifold

 

[rb97GSX]

Really, I'd probably upgrade to the manifold after turbo but throttle body before. Can anyone help with my questions above?

 

[rb97GSX]

anyone?
