ok i know you all are probably tired of these turbo kit help threads so ill make it quick. i just want to make sure that i have everything i need and this setup will be good.

HRC Stage 1
1G SMIC
GReddy TT
Joe P MBC
Turbo XS BOV
EGT Gauge
A/F Gauge
Missing Link
Vortech SFMU
NGK BKR7E Plugs

thats all im planning on for now. if i do get bitten by the boost bug which im sure i will, i plan on getting fty's 2.2L kit later on down the road around summer time. any and all opinions/suggestions wanted. thanks guys:thumbsup

forgot to mention that i plan on getting the af/x udp and mp 60mm tb before the turbo is on. i might also be getting a port and polished intake manifold.

loooks good. the kit itelf will be ok. but do you have the ic piping for the smic? and i'm not sure if the stg1 comes with a fpr, but you might need some fittings for the sfmu. not sure. and otherwise it is lookin good. and maybe some brackets for the smic. I think you have it under control as far as i can tell. if not, then you'll just have to make a trip to the store ;) i think everyone does :-D

yea i heard that ill probably have to custom make piping for the 1g smic. either that or i can buy some online. well see. ill be sure to post pics once its on.

the stage one comes with the craptech fpr

also for your guy's list, you need to buy AN fittings and SS fuel lines for the vortech sfmu. the vortech sfmu doesn't come with any lines. check whodatts write up for the sfmu install in the mods in the main site. it has the "shopping list" for the AN fittings and SS lines.

oh and expect to pay around 200 for those lines.

well, if you don't have any custom piping, your gonna have to get the right flange for the turboxs bov. I'm not sure what flange it takes. Just something else to consider.

You don't have to use SS lines with the FMU either, you can get AN barb fittings and use rubber line and save yourself a lot of cash.

I just wanted to tell everyone hey. This is my first post on here. Although I am an Eclipse virgin, I plan on being on here for quite awhile. I just transferred to Jacksonville, Florida, and I will be buying an Eclipse from my girlfriend's brother. (He is a car salesman.) I am hoping to get a '99 GS-T, but I will be happy with an Eclipse period. A friend that is a member here is going to help me tune my car, and I am looking forward to it. I'm not gonna get into what I want to do to my car, because all that will do is hex me or something. I have been reading up on some of this site, and I DO have one question...what kind of boost can I raise my car to, stock, with just a boost controller and a SAFC? I will be buying my parts peice by peice, and I already have the SAFC. I just need to get the boost controller after I get the car.
I'm a fairly good mechanic, but I am ALWAYS learning. )Turbo's are pretty new to me. I'm reading up on them, and I cant wait to get a GS-T and get a s16g in there.
Either way, I just wanted to say hey, and I will be reading a LOT on here and will be posting a LOT more once I get the car, and even more so once I start tuning it.

Thanx Ya'll


p.s. Can anyone give me some advice on tuning a stock GS-T with a SAFC? thanks again:thumbsup

i didnt read the thread, but some exhaust manifold studs would be nice :) you can search and find the part number from napa. i dont remember what i used.

might wanna upgrade your fuel pump

the turboxs will come with the proper flange. And the hrc kit will come with an accel inline fuel pump, i recommend the walbro 255. You can install both or just the walbro, its up to you.

please explain the walbro:shrug i feel like such a noob asking that but ive never been to familiar with it except for the fact that it involves the fuel system.

walbro 255 lph in-tank fuel pump.

uhhh ok........any explanations a little more detailed than that?:shrug

it's a fuel pump that easily will replace your stock fuel pump. Both thew walboro and the stock fuel pumps are in-tank pumps. Easy install remove back seat, unscrew some bolts, pull it ot and swap with walboro pump, plug it all in and yur done.

in other words, since your getting the inline you should be ok. But its also a good idea to get the walboro. make sure its the hi pres 255. If you have the inline and walbro you are set for a looong time! also i've heard the walbro will decrease the noies the inline makes.

where do i get it and how much?

dude there this thing called google, type crap on there and a million hits come to ya

EBAY, it's the cheapest place for almost anything. They're like 100 bucks shipped.
