Hey gadget,
Could I get away with the long tube headers, u spec exhaust system and fuel pump for now?
Bumping up the injectors would require the UCON correct? I noticed you guys use deatchworks.....what's crazy is my buddy is the one who started the company and other work there as well.
Off topic but he started by going to junkyards and redoing the dsm injectors and it took off from there. We used to use them In our 240 wit h sr20 back in like 2005 lol.....they have awesome service and a super sick shop in Oklahoma city. Carl was the lead tech there for a few years and got his D1 license and went from there as well. I was stationed there for 9 years before getting to hurlburt field.

It was a GSR with the typical T3/T4 turbo setup that everyone had back in the day. Nothing like it is now. Ran a 12.9 , forgot the MPH since it was years ago. I only know the time because it was barely under 13 sec lol. Always had huge traction issues, I was running the first Falken azenis at the time on 16" work emotion wheels. Now mind you, this was 2005....

First off, well done on your prior builds. This will be a walk in the park for you since you come from so much experience.
The 255lph will be plenty good for your power goals. :top: Won't hurt to be a little larger either though.
Surprised that the old owner never at least did a turn down on the muffler. Wow.
Since the time of the MK1, there has been a ton of evolution in the products for these trucks. Look in URD's header thread at the bottom of the main page, if you haven't already. You can see the amount of hp and tq gained by the Spec-U headers. VERY impressive! That isn't even including the rest of the exhaust.

Lol nice! I too were/am into Hondas I had a eg hatch with lsv boosting 20 on pump gas made 470 whp (old school/laggy turbo.) We don't have a track here in Oahu so I couldn't time my car but I made it for high speeds with the ls trans also running 16s. But I blew my stock sleeve block after a year this was like in 2009 lol I was only 21 at the time. I wish I could have timed my car tho!

Scheduled the truck to get taken in to the dealership for a few recalls. After reading here, I saw there was issues with rusted frames. Check under mine and low/behold....yup...rust. Glad it was recalled. I'll he sure to let them know I don't want crap sprayed all over the damn truck if that's the route they decide to go.

On a good note. I ordered a new TRD 6sp shifter know for $49 off Amazon last night and also having the Guage pod custom made....can't wait to see it. Not sure on which gauges to run. Thinking just all AEM since they have the wideband. Wanted to use all DEFI or Greddy but theydon't offer wideband and I'm OCD about mixing gauge brands lol...

Dude. http://www.tanabe-usa.com/vls.asp
Their OLED gauges are mmmm. I have the oil pressure gauge currently. Still need to swap out the the boost and wideband to match. No needed controller and are daisy chainable. :top:
