View Full Version : New for my SR20

I have a new turbo on the way. It's an 18g set at 14.5 psi. I blew my t28 with 18psi 300hp to the wheels. With this 18g at its 14.5psi setting I am being told that I should get the same power. I'm probably gonna get it tuned anyway.
I am also adding power steering back to my sr since the guy before me decided to lose it. Because of his action it destroyed the rack. I have already bought my bracket and pump. All I need now is some new poly bushings, a rack, lines, and a resevoir. I'm probably gonna get upgraded inner and outer tie rods. If anyone knows where I can find these items if they are for sale or any sites that I may have not searched on please let me know. Thank you.

14 psi on an 18G will make more than 300hp. You will definitely need a tune...what size injectors you have? You need to have 550cc injectors.

Yep 550cc and a z32 maf, megan exhaust manifold, hks BOV, walbro 255 fuel pump, LSD pumpkin. Over 300hp is what I was hoping for! :)

doesn't have to be an hks blow off valve, there are plenty of other good brands and you don't need an LSD right away. get the important things done first.

yes you are correct! I already have an apexi SAFC2

I have had these for 2 years now I'm just changing out the turbo cuz I blew the old one! I just wanted to know about other things and learn as much as possible!

Throw it away, it cant compensate ignition timing. Shitty timing will fuck your engine up faster than bad AFRs.

Look into Power Fc's or even a standalone.
