I would pick up a DD like a small truck or something like that. Just because it will be useful to carry parts and such.

thats how all the turbo cars on this site are. everybody is at 5-7psi when they are driving around. When they go to the dyno......yea thats when you see those 12, even some at 16psi.

Dont boost a DD. oh how you will regret that decision. Nothing ever goes as plan with boost otherwise i would be talking about how i was out destroying my friends M3/Zs/etc.

Probably should have used intercooler piping lol. My ex-boosted car had a PFI kit with the reverse y-pipe and terrible ground clearance. My current setup is the affectionately named "turbo header", which is also damn near equal length.
i was just browsing through the dyno results, and im pretty confident with the larger intercooler piping, my SSIM, plus those rev-up cams i can break 400 at ~14psi, just gonna do whatever it takes to hit 400 i just hope i dont blow a hole in the transmission. Then drop it too 6 or 7lbs and never touch it again.

My downpipe runs right next to the center beam which is at the same height as the factory y-pipe. But my whole drive-train is lowered so ground clearance is kinda sketchy.
Base fuel pressure which is 52psi. Plus the aeromotive is a rising 1:1 fpr which is nice for boost.

See I have got bit by the boost bug but not bad enough to raise the boost. I am plenty satisfied with 6-7psi and honestly think 350-400whp is plenty. Anything after that becomes a numbers thing and its not like the maxima will become faster with more power. Just more torque steer and wheel spin lol

Rev up cams ( had those installed when I got the 05 motor installed after after blowing the motor on nos)
Decked heads
Honed the cylinder and new after market piston rings for get the name brand
P&P heads on the intake and exhaust side
JW valve springs and retainers
Kintec intake manifold
Full spacer kit
Place racing style cold air intake
Hotshot headers with custom 3'' y pipe to 3''id exhaust
Apexi super afc 2
Techno ecu
Hd Shift kit
Stillen Transmission cooler
And an empty unhooked venom nos kit
I would rather have a well built n/a set up and a bottle of nos then a turbo on stock internals any day

Port and polished heads---->ebay muffler.
"JW"-T valve springs and retainers------>ebay muffler.
hotshot headers------>ebay muffler.
what makes you think you can pull this over on me? you dont even know how to pick a correct size turbo but you have P&P heads? Oh lets not forget most people that have that much work done have usually are not rockin stock HGs which you have conveniently left out.....what happened there? Do you have a wideband? But some how we have an SAFC for tuning.....
