I have a fully built forged bottom end B16a2 with GT2871r 56trim, 3 inch turbo back exhaust, Power FC ECU, list is endless.....

i got 235hp atw's on 10psi...i could probably get 245hp if we sat tuning it for longer, get the timing etc. But im running a low comp motor for high boost, still having fuel issues so i cant take it upto 20-24psi which im planning to...

All the head work in the list you put is unnecessary. Stock b16a2 cames are good for boost.

Not as much as you'd think

All those bits with no ecu = 120-130kw IMO.......Lets no mention all the running issues you'd have in the long run. eg Blown engine etc.......

When doing a build, consult a decent mechanic to help you select your parts and possibly help with build. An programmable ecu would be very beneficial for any build project and should be on the initial shopping list.....not last! Might cost more initially, but will cost less in the long run!

This is why there are many backyard builds out there that fail because everyone who has done it has read somewhere (google generally) that they can get 80kw gain cheap and are not told that they need a rebuild in 3 months....

I can't give you a straight answer to that man..

There's so many different configs its not funny plus who you know for the build

with the list u have u should already be running an ECU.. why are u waiting til the turbo..+

t88+ no ecu= cold fusion

get a t88... : http://videos.streetfire.net/video/c...t88_698042.htm
