What's up everyone.
The turbo kit is pretty interesting as I have had it for almost 4 months now. I think the most interesting part is the sleeper aspect of it which is sooooooooo enjoyable. I seemed as if I always would have random cars attempt to race me when driving to work early in the morning whenever I drive the car.
Anyway, also with happy comes change. Is it change for the better or worst? Anyway, making some upgrades to the current setup that I have now. I'll post some pics later this week hopefully and touch base a little more regarding it.
All in all, everything has worked out fine and I have enjoyed every bit of it.

Actually, I haven't had to replace the tires. I don't drive the car that much to be honest. Also the auto transmission was holding while with no signs of slippage or anything. I have only took off from the line maybe once or twice and when I did I didn't gain traction until the top of 2nd gear. I may have a video saved on my pc but I will have to check. When my car is done this time, I will differently have a dyno video available.

Kiran made it I believe. We were riding down 355(crusing in 4th going like 30mph) and then pulled next to me, so I gave the car a little gas. No big video though.
a new Z06 with my new torque converter, some duct tape and a can of WD40.

Hey man...got everything installed except the S2K injectors...I tried to install them and they didn't fit...they were too short and the fuel rails sat below the bolt holes that hold them in place.
Do you have the J32A2? maybe the A2 has different injectors from the A1? Unless that guy just didn't send me correct injectors...I dunno but they aren't fitting....
In fact, the RC 750cc I have seemed to fit almost like stock...only thing I would have to mess with is the seal...shave it down a bit...
What should I do?
Do you know if your shop said those injectors fit exactly like stock? or did the fuel rails sit lower?

What's up ryan. Yeah, the shop installed them without any problems and I pulled them out without any issues. I think the 99 fuel rails are different then the ones from 00-03. That might be your problem.

So have any of you tried to install RC's on the 99 Fuel Rail? I have one 750cc (Not gonna use) that seemed to fit if i modify the bushing a bit...but it's the same height...Just want to know before I spend the money on 440s

Awesome...but notice how he had to cut the rail?...There is such a difference with my rails that I could put the 750cc injecter in the rail just fine....and it almost slid perfect into the block...like i said, the bottom bushing is just a tad stretched out, but nothing i can't deal with.
Looks like 440cc is the smallest out engines can take...He maxed them out at 9psi...I want to run 8psi daily so maybe 550s are requred?

with the 440's he actualled dynoed for 10psi ...and car holds 10psi with no problem with fuel issues. You should be able to get away with that since you only want 8psi

nope ...
Don't see any need at this point. My turbo integra ran on stock axles with 600whp for 2 seasons. I don't see it breaking anytime soon.
I might look into it after Thinjim finds out some more information.

Picked up some new parts......
Set of Tl-p heads ...Thanks kris!
I wonder what I'm doing with those??
Anyway, no pics because I forgot to take pics before taking them to the engine builder on today.
Also picked up this new gauge pod so I won't be using the 2 gauge pod I have installed now.
