all right...i'm about to order this THIS WEEK. everyone knows how things run through ur mind right before u drop a lot of money down...so here we go. i'm thinking about buying this turbo upgrade from precision turbo http://www.jgstools.com/turbo they have a manifold for the sr20det. it is similar to the drag-style manifolds. they are okay, i still want a stainless, but i'll deal right now. this guy says that he has only had one manifold ever crack on him, so i'm going with him on his word. "he has done thousands " i have talked to him, he really knows his ****. anyways, the turbo i'm going to run is a garret ballistic t3/t04e. I can get either a .63 or .82 A/R on the t3 turbine side and then .60 or 60-1 compressor side. NEED ur opinions on those measurements. if you guys will look at the website, i wanna know ur HONEST opinion on these manifolds, etc. do they look okay? i'm definitely all about looks too, but i just don't wanna spend 1500-2000 on a JIC manifold or HKS, etc. u guys understand. I'm getting (what i feel like is) a great deal on this upgrade....so here is a run-down on what i'm getting from these guys: -Manifold (pic on website) t3 flange, xternal WG applic. -Garret Ballistic t3-to4e turbo (to my measurements above) -Tial 35mm Wastegate -all lines and fittings Total: $1296

I think this is a HELLUVA deal. it doesn't come with the downpipe, i'll have to get a custom downpipe done to extend to top. i have connections with that though, so no worry. Also, i have gotten A'pexi 550cc Injectors and my z32 MAF. i would also need to retune my JWT ecu. anything you guys think i may need or may be missing? i can't get everything at once, but your input will be greatly appreciated...~Scott 95 sr20det
