This is an OLD TOPIC with very different opinions and routes. Stop trying to get spoon fed. The answers will vary, it's up to you to do the research and decide which way you'd like to go based off your budget, goals, etc.

yes you would. but the actuator is only if you want.. and on top of the maf you'll need injectors and a tune to run it safely.. boosting a 2871r on a stock sr is dangerous. or if your broke just buy another t25 and save up

Yes. Either way you will have to upgrade injectors and have it tuned. Also with the parts you have listed. It's not as simple as just plug and play like your thinking. Get the right parts and have it tuned and you will be very happy!Goodluck

I've seen S13 SR's run a S15 turbo with no tune, no upgraded injectors, and on 16 psi. I wouldn't recommend it, but I've seen it done. The car's been running for about 4 or 5 years now. It's dd at 12 psi though.

You don't need that MAF sensor yet but if you could find a good deal get it.As for HKS Actuator, don't get it until you have FMIC, 450cc injectors, tuned ECU, and wideband. These parts are needed before going 14lbs of boost.

Unless you are running more than 12lbs of boost, yes.

Search that and you will see the build threads and it will answer all your questions. gt2871r is a nice turbo and with the correct supporting mods you can push some good hp. I think codyace has that turbo and puts 399hp with some other mods. Searh my friend
