do you think i need to replace that first or do i can use it till i get a bigger one ?

I would get the turbo first. You should be alright on the stock smic up to about 18 to 19psi as long as you have the proper fuel mods. I'm still running on the stock smic with my FP Big28 at 19psi on pump gas and 550's. I'm right at 850c to 875c on my egt temps. I'm in need of a fmic also, along with some HKS 264/264 cams and an ACT 2100 clutch.

thanks for all you help guys ummm that web sight has a great deal and im looknig foward to buying my turbo now i have second question that has nothing to do with my turbo ummm .Does any here have a greddy type S b/v ( purplr one ) Can that be used as a open atmoshpere b/v or do i have to connect my rube. A friend of mine has this set so he just pluged the tube but soeon toldme that this is bad cause air and dist leaks in the b/v and turbo

i have the type-S greddy blow off valve on my 96 Eagle talon Tsi Awd and you can vent as long as you have an intake like injen or something like that then cap off where the hose hooks to the intake and keep the blow off hose in the car just incase never know =0)

alright thanks thats what my friends did he but a 20 oz plastic cap inthe whole and titen the ring aroundit what did you use or what works good

 

[Rob]

I Han an en cap off a hose here at my job and pluged the intake pipe with that it was a red cap so it matched the injen intake

 

[Rafael Barbosa]

whats a han en cap and what type of hose

 

[Rob]

sorry it was late and i was at work i ment :
I had an end cap off a hose we had goten from work to keep like spider or something from giting in there and it fit on my intake fine. Then i was a happy venter =0) but i am not right now my tps is messed up so had to hook it back up till i got the 1g throttle body and intake manifold im going to use the sensor off the 1g throttle body till i have time to do the 1g intake and throttle body conversion.

 

[Rafael Barbosa]

[Rob]

NA You wont mess it up , i messed mine up cleaning the throttle body with brake clean ......... dumb move but i have the 1g throttle body on the way along with the intake <tps> is The <Throttle Positioning Sensor>
You wont mess up nothing venting .......sounds bad ass =0)

my 17c runs good at 18 pounds

 

[Rafael Barbosa]

really what do u spool up at and what do you normaly run it at ( punds )

 

[Rafael Barbosa]

umm i ment pounds not punds oops....

 

[LaserRST]

There is also a Ball bearing Big t28. This will spool super quick and super hard. The 16g or big 16g is good too but you need a 1g manifold from what I understand. t28 is bolt on. My .02$.

 

[Rob]

You cant Beat the Agp T28 best hp gain and cheepest turbo to go with and bolts right up..... cant beat that with a stick =0)
