i would personally go with the JGS mani and dump pipe, that way you can use a stock or aftermarket SR downpipe, i personally own the JGS mani and dump and wastegate, they are very good quality.(looks a lot like that fmax mani, cept turbo is placed a little bit further up, which gives more clearance with the master cyl)your gonna need a wastegate too! tial, turbonetics,jgs,etc make good ones.and i dont like FMUs you'd probably be maxing out those 370cc injectors before you max out the MAF, so yeah maybe take that off the list or get bigger injectors depending on how much power you want.as far as the FMIC, the piping will probably be the same as any sr kit, except the hot pipe, home depot FTWwith that turbo your going to have to run water lines to and from the turbo, so thats some more to consider(not as expensive as oil lines).-Paul

Yeah If I were you, I'd get rid of the FMU and take the money you save from that and buy bigger injectors. The SAFC will adjust just fine without an FMU.

No problem man, I think I made a thread like this like 2 or 3 years ago or something.
