i'd say with that turbo you'll need injectors and fuel pump to be able to run any real amount of boost. i also assume you have a hiflowing exhaust system?

therefore you will need some form of aftermarket management and a tune. whether it is as crude as a SAFC through to a remap or a full aftermarket system (depending on your budget).

you say you are a drifter. more power helps but a clutch, agood lsd and suspension setup (as extreme as you want to go) will make it easier to drift and give you greater control

obviously it all depends on your budget. just keep your eye out on here for bargains on the parts you need

suspension you'll need for sure and tyres...lots of tyres!

even if you do get the pump and injectors the car will run like shit it want be able to control the injectors i dont think get a emange or something there cheap or dr drift re-map!

pod filter and box + cai or high flowing panel filter

3in exhaust, high flow cat

fmic and piping

you already have turbo so you will need

fuel pump, injectors, ecu/tune

boost control method... ebc or otherwise

z32 afm... maybe

clutch

spend money on handling/braking to make it managable (and more fun imo) to drive unless you want to drag (:thumbsdown)

mentioned above is probably more than two grand. the fact that you have chosen a large turbo means you'll require the extra fuel system items to make used of the turbo.

only tip is to do what you can yourself to assist the budget and yer keep an eye out for deals on the forums

Stole the words right out of my mouth :dry:

More Power = MORE AIR + MORE FUEL

If one of these is missing in the equation = DETONATION

Id also use an oil cooler and surge tank to be safe...that is of course

you want to drift safely... :O

to start with i already run coilovers and a 550hp heavy duty cluch i have a 3inch exaust turbo back got a pod and a massive afm and already got a boost controller

You have a stock AFM

as, if you have a stock ECU, then you wont be running a "Massive" AFM.

    • Yeah nice idea, you mean to suction it to the gauges? I hadn't thought of that.
    • A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

    • I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.
