Starting my build, what else do i need? need your advice!

infumis · Oct 21, 2009, 12:05 PM

Hey guys i own a 09 PB gsr. I have most of my parts but im looking for what else i would need or what you would recommend. Im not trying to create a new wheel and go beyond everyone else, im just looking for parts that work.

parts i have...

harman motive UICP
harman motive LICP
harman motive CAI
ams FMIC
ams 3" DP
ams test pipe
ams 3" catback single tip version
exedy stage 2 single plate
ams clutch master cylinder reinforcement ring thing
fp red ported turbo
forge WGA red spring ( is it to much? )
aquamist hfs6/howerton mount install kit ( very pimp )

The car will be tuned using ecutek by cam at lightspeed in red deer alberta canada.

parts i still need to purchase...

injectors ( size? )
walbro pump
boost gauge
wideband ( innovate? )
gauge mounting solution ( any suggestions )

What else should i get my hands on? i read lots of talk about a 3 port boost solenoid, a MBC etc. Im not shooting for any number on the dyno but i want to get everything i can possibly get out of the money i put into the parts i have purchased.

i would go with the geddy electronic boost controler- i love that thing- other than that- everything sounds great for power mods!!!! only thing i could think of are some gauges to monitor stuff-wideband-boost-oil temp

Don't get a boost controller...

Use stock ECU controlled boost and grab a 3 port, perrin sells them as do others, I went with Perrin and it works great which is why i am recommending it.

A walboro wouldn't hurt but you probably won't need it.

I would get the 880cc injectors from Deatschwerks or the 1000cc ones from them if you plan on going bigger eventually. It never hurts to have some heard room.

Also make sure your tuner is cool with ecu boost, some don't know how to tune it or don't like it because it takes more time, but it is well worth it.

maybe a set of cams?

Don't waste your time with the AMS clutch ring thing, it'll still break.. If you are going aftermarket clutch and don't want broken master cylinders - then get a different master cylinder. SSP has supposedly a new product, and a shop from New York has the 9 - X Master Cylinder conversions.

i have brand new 800cc Deatschwerks injector for sale which should be good for your setup

boost gauge i would go with something that reads past 30psi

fuel pump i would go with the UR walbro kit or the HB speed walbro kit. i went with hb speed cause its cheaper.

wideband i have aem uego

ami makes custom pillar pods

boost control either 3 port or ebc. I am changing to ebc now cause my current tuner doesnt like to tune 3 ports.

Damn Kent youre insane.
Definitely get a wideband.
Mounting solution, there is a company SCI? That makes aftermarket A pillars 1-3 pods available.
I recently got a 3port Boost Solenoid and I recommend it for sure.

Jeez, who are you and when can I see your car

I'd recommend the 3-Port as well. It may only have a slight improvement on the stock turbo, but the difference on a big turbo is obvious. With the ECU Boost control, you lose functionality by going to a MBC, so I wouldn't recommend that at all.

i will look at sci ... i spoke with the ami guy on the other forum and 350 dollars for a gauge pod seemed quite high.
