Well as the heart of winter approaches its time for me to finish gathering the parts needed for my spring time KA-T build. This is a list of the parts I already have and plan on getting. I figured I would post it here to make sure im not missing anything or buying things that may not work best for my setup. Just so you guys know my goal is to hit atleast 300whp and I will be running a stock KA (until it blows or I can afford to build one). I also have one or two questions for you guys...

Frsh13's KA-T list----------

Iap manifold and custom 5bolt downpipe that bolts up to the cat (I already have both of these sitting in my room )

Garrett T3/T04E or T3/T04B

FMIC and custom 2.5inch piping (not sure what brand or size but something capable of supporting my goals)

Greddy BOV (either type R or RS)

Tial 38mm wastegate

Iap Oil Line kit

Greddy oil catch can (already have this chillen in my room also)

FUEL MANAGMENT LIST------

Nismo 555cc injectorsZ32 Maf (n62 model right?)Enthlapy ECUwalboro fuel pumpz32 fuel filter (already installed)

ELECTRONICS--------

Greddy full auto turbo timerGreddy boost controllerElectronic boost and oil pressure gauges (probibly also fuel pressure and temp gauge)

So I think this setup is a good setup that will be reliable and produce a good amount of HP. I have a few questions though...

1) What spring should I get for the Tial 38mm wastegate?

2) Are the 555cc injectors big enough and are nismo injectors good quality?

3) Should I look into gettin an aftermarket fuel rail or will the stock fuel rail with the injectors be fine?

4) For the turbo does anyone have any suggestions for the size? I want something that spools quickly but can easily handel the 300whp im going to be throwing at it. If you check out this link it has both the T04b and T04E from garrett and the available sizes. http://westcoast-turbo.com/turboa.html

And just so you guys know I already upgraded my brakes over the summer to handel the increased whp...Im sporting 30mm aluminum z32 calipers, brembo xdrilled/slotted rotors all around, axxis ultimate pads all around, and SS lines all around. I also upgraded my Brake master cylinder to the Z32 1" 16/17 model. I also already have an upgraded clutch and J30 diff installed to put the power to the ground.

ooo and sry for the looooong post

No need for an aftermarket SIDE feed fuel rail. Side feeds are pretty expensive compared to top feeds. If youre gonna stick with side feeds, keep the stock rail. If youre gonna upgrade to larger injectors down the road, I'd get top feeds and a new rail now.

For 300whp, Ive heard the 0.63AR would be better. And that stage 3 intercooler on the site you linked to looks pretty good, assuming its well made.

Keep your stock fuel rail and replace injectors from our sponsorhttp://www.deatschwerks.com/Cheap and flow tested. It is what I run in my car.
