Nothing Aftermarket Here
There is nothing Aftermarket about this car. It took 6 months to put together.

that would be probably one of the best comments you are ever going to get regarding your turbo... wow!
I am running the sds eic on my car to control the additional injectors aswell....how do u like it? and do u have to adjust it everytime u adjust the level of boost? or how does taht work? and where abouts are your two knobs on it set at....u can check out pics of my car by clickin on my sig..

EIC
I'll explain how it works, you'll see why you can set it and forget it.
It recieves a manifold Pressure line and a Tach signal. You Have a Threshold and a gain knob. The Threshold is where the system starts to come on. The Gain is how much the injectors come on based on your boost. Because the system is used only to compensate for the extra air that the turbo is craming into your engine, the stock injectors, MAFS, and O2 Sensors do what they were made to do. Maintain Stoych Balance. Please get a Air/Fuel and Boost set up as a minimum. You Need the A/F to set the system. If you hammer the throttle and you go lean, that tells you that the EIC isn't dumping enough fuel and the stock injectors are on full duty pulse. If it goes Rich and stays there. The EIC is on too much and the stock injectors are completely off. As long and the A/F still bounces back and forth like it does at an idol it's set well. I like to keep it just below the point where the stock injectors are off. That way, if there is a problem with a leaning out of fuel, the stock injectors are only running at like 5% and have alot of headroom to compensate. When I come onto the boost controler...because the EIC is hooked to your pressure signal. It sees the boost and the injector pulse length automatically rises. It's seemless once it's set. Please note, the 2.0 L ECU will hold rich past 130Km/h stock. If that happens it does not mean the EIC is ******. It's normal and supposed to do that. Later...Brian

Intercooler
It's Supposed to be for a Silvia. 2 Inch In and 2.5 inch out.
The Garrett is 2" and the manifold is 2.5 Inch so I didn't need a stepper pipe.
It's a little big for the application but I'm the king of overkill. I don't wan't detonation. Later...Brian

That is a great looking system, thanks for posting.

Pistons
The pistons are forged and were made with a cavity to bring the N/A compression to 8.8:1 It should last a very long time, and if it dosn't I'll just get pieces replaced as they break. It wasn't exactly cheap to design and build a custom turbo, so why start being cheap now. With a dual stage turbo controler, I run usualy 6 Psi on low and rarely have to use the 12 Setting. This is the only Turbo'ed car in this area aside from my friends Jetta. Not to many people do much more than Manifold/Cat-back/Body Kit here. As I said before. I Did this for then enjoyment of driving the car, not to beat 911's. I would have started with a faster car rather than granny's grocery getter.

Additional injectors and 12 pounds of boost? I hope you have money saved for new pistons, should you melt one...also tranny $$.
Nice work, however...everything looks first-rate.

DAMN, that thing is a monster to behold. It looks unique to say the very least, but it looks like its ready to handle about anything you throw its way. The Tranny has got to be beggin for mercy some days!!!

Tranny
When I first bought the car I was really happy with the gear ratios. The first gear is too short now. I launch in second because of it. If it busts I plan to bebuild it. Has anyone ever attempted it? or swapped for a Probe Tranny?
