Haven't updated on this in a while. In my original thread I posted my new magnaflow turbo sport polished stainless steel muffler. Well, just got a few goodies today.

High Temp 4-layered silicone couplers and connectors
NGK Performance Iridium Spark Plugs, 1 step colder
3" Mandrel bent T304 SS race downpipe
3" Mandrel bent T304 SS front midpipe
3 ch Igniter
Billet wheel PT67 Turbo extended tip
haltech EII V2 full stand alone EMU
Twin Fuel Pump Setup

AEM Cam Gears
Still waiting on head studs, head gasket, and my gauges. This setup is good for over 1,000whp. Although I wont be making that.....right now. Nothing in the drive train will handle that. I'll be doing full forged internals, fully built tranny, and LSD in the future and turn up the boost. When that happens my cam's and intake will need replaced. The integra made 600whp so this will surpass that for sure.
lol at GM/Delphi Map sensor...
Seems to be the standard these days...MSD uses them too...
Looks tasty...always was curious about these cars...

A common Wastegate seems to negate the point of a divided entry manifold. In any case, I doubt you'll have any trouble spooling that PT67 anyways. Looks good, Rabbit.
I have no signiture
Just try not to do this to it:
Who makes the P67 "extended tip"? Have a compressor MAP? Everything I've seen on different P67 frame turbos says max 80 lbs/min, that's why I ask, considering your power ultimate power goal (1000 whp will need over 100 lbs/min right?)
Its a SRT Specced precision turbo. Its a kit for the IS300 with some upgraded items. Very popular for the 2jz non turbo guys.
Oh, forgot to add my goal isn't 1000whp. I said thats what the kit is capable of. My goal for now is 800whp.
So my tires went to @!#$ on my rims. Since they were 19's they're expensive. I wasn't looking to pay almost a grand for tires on rims I don't like. I got a steal on a set of 17x8 Ray Gram Lights. They're forged 1 piece rims and I can actually put a little meat under the car. I snagged them for 350 bucks. Good tire tread in good shape. Here is a little teaser. These will be my track/bad weather rims.
There is a guy selling the rims I want. He has a possible buyer, but if he doesn't buy tonight they're mine. Getting those for a steal also. Paying 2200 shipped. I wont say what they are but I'll tell you they're an 18x10.5 +25 offset. The rear tires are 265/40/18. Yes, they're flush as @!#$ and yes they have a nasty lip and mad staggered lol.
Heres the Ray's.
Yes, I know it needs a drop. Don't worry its coming. I'm only one man one thing at a time, lol.
I thought you were in Iraq?
you bought rays gram lights for 350 with tires> ? bastard ! lol
Hazard pay must be nice. I haven't worked in weeks because of my back.

I am in Iraq. On one of the local forums I saw two for sale post from the same guy. One he was selling his evo with the rays on them. The other he was selling some other nice wheels. I wanted those as well but wouldn't fit on the lexus with the tires he had. So I talked to him and told him if he put the other wheels on the evo and marked the price up then sold me his old wheels I'd buy them. He informed me they had a few scratches on them and I told him not a big deal I'd have them fixed. I was expecting to pay 800 or so for them. He sent me very very detailed pictures and they weren't bad. He sold the evo for 2k more than he was originally asking with the other rims. I asked how much for the rays and he said 350. So I put 350 into the joint account my girlfriend and I have and she went and picked them up and put them on the car for me. My right rear tire was no longer holding air so something needed to be done. These have fairly good treat left and they're really light. Plus being 17's I can get some meaty tires on there.
My gf informed me yesterday they're a lil lower offset so she's gonna roll the fenders so they clear better. She's gonna take a picture of the whole car and send me it. I'll update when she does. She said they sit more flush and look great now.

omg your girlfriend is awesome. Jealousy ensues
Your gf have a sister?
The girl I'm dating is into cars and trucks too but not enough to roll fenders.
Curious,how much did the turbo kit cost?
KG, I'll be modding no matter how far I am, lol. I got an e-mail from the guy I was going to buy another set of rims from. So it looks like its a go. I'll be sending him the money Wednesday and he'll ship them out Thursday. He bought new rims so he's packing the old ones in the new boxes. Which works out nicely. I wont say what they are until my GF takes a picture of them for me. I can say I'll need to pull the fenders though
The weather here has been amazing. It was reaching almost 140 a couple days then bam barely 100 sometimes less. Its been freakin great.
Eternal, she does what she can. She's getting pretty good. Thats the whole reason for buying the miata. We been building it together. When the clutch burnt out in it at the track last time she said she was actually kind of excited because she couldn't wait to get her hands dirty again. Best part is she's smart too lol. She'll graduate with her Doctor's in physical therapy in fall of this year.
Schaffer, nope sorry only child, lol.
Eh ill get over it.
Not disclosing the price on el turbo I see.
Oh sorry, I've got about 7g's wrapped up in it so far.
Rabbit,
your girlfriend sounds like a good girl. Is there a pic of the happy couple?
I do believe he has posted them before in the girlfriend thread.
Well, picked up another item. It was sort of on accident, lol. My gf wanted the JDM Altezza grill for her IS300. I was going to get the black Altezza TRD Sport grill. I saw the JDM Altezza grill on ebay so I bid on it. I didn't bid much and the auction ended in 5 days. Well on club lexus I saw the grill she wanted brand new in the box for a good price. So I bought it for her. Then today I get an email saying I wont the bid on the other one....ooops lol. Oh well it looks nice so I'll use it. Here is a picture of what it looks like. I haven't received it yet.
Here is the one I was going to use.
Here is the one I ended up getting
Oh and I ordered my rims. I wont say what they are but when they come in I'll post pics. They were pricey
but freakin worth it.
