Just like the title, ill be installing it in a few weeks. It is a stock bottom car, just need it to last for about a year so i can go forged. 111k on the clock. Mods in sig....

My setup

-D1SC 8-rib 4.50" pulley, hoping for 8#'s of boost
-Custom FMIC
-60lb Mototron injectors
-Aeromotive 340lph in tank fuel pump
-Big red race valve / maybe bullet by pass valve, havent decided if i wanna spend the extra $100 on the better looking valve lol.
-SD tune (hopefully)
-2 bar cobalt Map sensor
-Truck inlet Hat with filter
-AFR/wideband, fuel pressure, and boost gauge
-600+ hp rated clutch (havent decided on which on yet)
-Br7e ngk's.... right?

Is there anything you guys would add? besides a rear end, i kno....its in the works.... the car is a 100% street car, that only gets driven on the weekends and doesnt get launched hard, just some quick 1st-2nd gear pulls and 2nd-3rd gear pulls. all rolling..... just a toy lol...

Horsepower guesses will be welcome also!!


as far as guages, im gonna go with these...

AEM 30-4100 AFR/wideband
autometer C2 boost/fuel pressure gauges mechanical
triple pillar...comes to like $380

will these be good enough?

thanks guys!

Make sure all the accessory pulleys run straight and true.
When I was a teenager I put a blower on a mustang and it had a barely noticable wobble in the powersteering pulley, needless to say it ate a belt once a month for a whole summer before I found it.

ill keep that in mind. Id really like to hit the 550rwhp mark, but i dunno if it will or not. Anything over 500 though will make me smile though.

I didn't see it listed, but did you get an ATI balancer and the 8 rib 7.65" crank pulley? Also IMO, I would ditch the mechanical boost and fuel pressure gauges and pay a couple of extra $$ for a set of electrical gauges. I just don't think it's a good idea to plumb a fuel line into the car's cabin, just my .02 though.

Ya sry, I have those pullies. What about mechanical boost Guage? Isnt it just a large vacuum line? I agree with the fuel pressure though. Electric boost is like $150 same with the fuel pressure :-/. I really didn't wanna drop $500 in gauges

Personally, having a boost gauge is just a gadget/gizmo to me since I data log every time I drive my car, so I know how much boost it's making from data rather than trying to keep my eye on a 2-3" gauge out of the corner of my eye.

im very seriously considering trying out the glowshift gauges....ive ready pretty good things. Id stick with the AEM wideband, and just buy their fuel pressure (electronic) and boost gauge (vacuum line type)

id like to data log, thought about bying a cheap $300 netbook and picking up a used copy of hptuners. i dont know how to tune with it...but just for keeping an eye on things... Is running the 2-bar just as simple as plugging in the new sensor and pulling off the MAF? then the tuner will update the PCM to accept it?
