Ohh OK =) Good thing! If you do your own setup, you might consider stealing some design ideas from my Gamma V3 TT kit which relocates the power steering cooler more inboard (you could probably buy that bracket from them) so that you can bring the intercooler closer in. That way you can fit the OEM tow bar with some spacers instead of getting rid of it or having to buy the FI bar.

Good to know on the Walbro install kit! I don't have plans to upgrade, but you never know =)

I love this forum, but it has a glaring weakness in how vendors are handled. I nominate Chuck to handle this part of it from here on out (you should start with Mishimoto).

On day one of my reign..err administration, the heads of Mishimoto and Evo-R will be on spikes outside my evil lair.

Read through your build thread... that was a hell of a journey! :driving:

It was an emotional rollercoaster.

Here is the thread with all the pics and vids..

I don't doubt it.

Makes me glad I have a few months to collect parts and do my build. That said, it isn't my style. I'll probably be in there powering through it like a dirty shirt (with a dirty shirt?) day and night until it's done.

Updated the OP parts list. Made the call to run a substantially upgraded A/W setup. Should still see some good gains and is more economical to start out with.

Even beyond that still lots to do in the car with the wrap and decalling for it (company sponsored for events) and all these things add up quick so saving a grand or so over the A/A conversion helps a lot right now.

Not to mention still need set of GramLites and tires too, along with a brake upgrade (trying to score a set off a wrecked Nismo).


Here is the updated SC list so far:

Amended list:

Stillen SC, impeller upgrade and 9psi pulley
FrozenBoost 101 Intercooler
Bosch 850cc injectors
K&N filter, right on the blower
Greddy FV BOV
Relocate MAF to charge pipe
Speed density tuning
Walbro 485 pump
CJM hat and 10mm return kit
GTR Plugs
AMS Alpha GTR 4 bar MAP sensor

OS Giken 1.5
Whiteline Diff bushing
SouthBend Stage 3 Street clutch and flywheel (quiet one)
CSC Elminator

AEM Failsafe Boost/AFR Gauge

Upgrade oil cooler to 34 row (will try it out first)

Ecutek reflash

Possibly custom charge pipe with long enough Y to put MAF right at each TB. Will see how it goes.

You should add to your list an intake temp sensor located in the plenum after the cooler.

Thanks, I knew I was missing something but couldn't put my finger on what it was. AIT had crossed my mind before but ended up forgetting all about it again. Definitely want to know those temps!

I have a brand new dual readout gauge. I think I have a 2 water temp sensor and an air sensor that I bought for it too.Was going to put one air in the manifold, one of the water sensors right before the intercooler and one right after it too see how well the heat exchanger was doing at cooling the water. This would be awesome and very easy to do with the stillen h.e. then swap to the treadstone and see what's going on. I think I bought some in line hose temp sensor bungs/fittings that would make installing them take about 5 minutes. Will sell cheap.
