So I dropped both the my hatch and the silvia off at central auto today. They are pulling the CA out and putting it in the Silvia. There gonna fix a bunch of other stuff too while there at it. Im so stoked, its about time that car got some power. Anyways ill post some pics after the swap is done and maybe a video.

im geting a set of dsm 440s soon, then need to get FPR and AFC, after that a good tune and im done. unless im forgeting something critical, that should get me around 250whp. Its already got s15 t28, fmic, turbo back exh., and mbc.

Get a ROM tune for the injectors and AFM if you've got one, then use the AFC to correct the fuel maps.

If you go with 550's, then you can turn the boost up to about 18psi and that should yeild you 270rwhp pretty easily.
