Evan - sounds like you have a killer setup in the making! But what exhaust is that? GO single!!! 
Stopping power? Good call. Stoptech BBK: check.
Which plugs were those? How much were they? Are they the same temp as stock? Im thinking of getting new plugs... But I don't have enough power yet to get 1 step colder.

I had to start from somewhere.As you know, I wanted to go single but couldn't go with Titanium. So T1R70mm was my first choice. After lots of tries to get one, shipping costs was too much from your side of the planet. So i decided to get all my stuff from japan and save on shipping.
As for the exhaust, its a dual without resonator, and the V bend looks promising.
The plugs are HEAT RANGE 8. Prices can be found HERE. I got them from Japan too.
This my stage1 setup. Watch out for more

NA FTW...
Any updates?
Juan you have GC01 or GC07?? And what's different from GC07 and ASM spec?
My new setup replaces the Toda header with J's Racing. I'm looking for peak power numbers. And of course version2 of the T1R 70r.
Tuning is this Friday... Dyno ASAP after that.
I'm debating on spark plugs..
If I expect 230whp (prob a little less), and live in a moderate climate, should I go IK22 or IK24 range? Stock or 1 stage colder? Thanks!

Alright everyone, this summer I'm going to finally get my car the way I want it, and get down to some tuning and whatnot. Here's my setup now:
Simota cold air
T1R70 with test pipe
17" SSR Comps
Gutted Trunk
Lightweight battery (uninstalled, will relocate to trunk)
Hondata IM gasket (uninstalled)
Here's what I plan on ordering within the next month:
4.56R gears - haven't decided on the comptech dif or not
Megan Header (waiting on a dyno though)
70mm throttle body
Spoon head gasket
Bigger injectors (maybe)
Greddy E-Manage Ultimate or VAFC2 with very aggressive tune
Springs(until stock shocks wear out ) and UK alignment
Get my car down to almost 200lbs lighter than stock
The emanage/vafc would be the last I'll get, and I'll probably end up tuning next fall once it cools down. I hope to make ~230 to the ground. What do you guys think of this setup, and do you have any other suggestions? Can I tune larger injectors with the E-Manage? Also, has anyone tried that new intake manifold that supposedly makes a lot of power?
Also, does anyone know where I can get the Spoon headgasket from?
I got a huge tax return amongst some other money I've been saving, and I'm ready to finally get my car rolling with the big boys
