Car looks really good. Almost makes me want a B15. Maybe next year.

I think I sold my last set of 370s but if I stumble across a set in my storage unit should I let you know?

leave the cams at 0,0. get it up and running, then tune/ dyno

then try the 5, 5 setting and tune/dyno again and see

peace

Alright cool so general consensus is I definitely need an inj upgrade and to leave the cams at 0,0 until she's tuned and running proper. Let me dig around the garage this week and see if I can locate my 370's before buying another set, but I appreciate the offers.

Will the stock fuel pump be able to handle 4 bar fuel pressure on 370's? The Walbro will definitely go in eventually, but I want to tackle the cams, gears, and engine harness so this thing can finally get tuned. That's my top priority at the moment.

u only need 333inj. but if you do have the 370's that will work. and 370's at 4bar isn't advisable with the stock pump cause it shouldn't be able to keep up.

and as far as cams most say that at 0,0 is the best median for power but if you get on the dyno you can start messing with gears.

You might as well swap the fuel pump since you don't know when your oem pump will crap and and being old will make it less efficient possibly maxing it out.

^ x2. VE injectors on a B15 pump is more than enough. I don't think the B15 pump could keep up with 370's at 4 bar.

^ I would definitely do this! I am pretty sure my B15 pump just took a shit all over my ride!! All of a sudden it can't keep fuel pressure or maintain AFR's. Going to test it out tonight or tomorrow! A bigger pump and an AFPR with gauge is probably what I will have to do next.

Kind of irrelevant to what I originally posted about, but here's an update for you all:

After Christmas,

-Installed weather-tech in-channel window visors all around
-Installed smoked headlights with 6K hid's (Beam pattern and visibility is actually good)

Cosmetically, only thing necessary left to do is re-paint the roof that now has excessive clear-coat fading.

In addition to what I originally posted about, do you all think this setup would even be worthwhile to install on a stock ve motor? (After installing all of the aforementioned)

Even if i kept the boost down to stock wastegate spring, I would obviously see an increase in power, but would not even come close to taking advantage of the high flowing setup. No reason this thing couldn't produce 400+ hp IMO.



Specs:
-Freshly rebuilt Garrett 60 trim t3/t04e (Less than 100 miles on turbo/No shaft play)
-ASP Equal length T3 top mount turbo manifold with 44mm external v-band wastegate flange
(Manifold is also coated from aerospace engineering company in CT thanks to Marksr20)

I still plan on installing everything in the beginning of the thread, however I now have this setup laying around collecting dust. I currently have the fmic, 880cc injs, and greedy electronic boost controller. Really only need proper tial external gate, tial bov, all lines, and downpipe/ic piping as far as I'm concerned. Maybe Z32 maf as the N60 may not be able to handle the power.

Now that you all see what I have laying around, what would you do? Piece the rest together? Wait until I can afford to build the motor? Sell the turbo goodies and stay NA?

Car is not necessarily a daily driver. Currently it is, but I am willing to pull it off the road to do work for this coming season. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
