Finally Finished (the turbo setup at least)
Revenge, missed your post. I'm running a MoTeC M800 and no i won't do a head gasket. My goal is to break the stock motor record then build it. The car is built for the red line time attack series (or will be when its finished).
:edit: oh yeah custom intake manifold too. I do not like the polished look. Everything is sand blasted, when its all done ill sand blast it again and anodize it (clear) and leave it.

I was expecting more, most people don't have intake manifolds or that big of a turbo... i couldn't run much timing since its a stock head gasket. I think my big choke is the stock head, the manifold is gasket matched and the head is stock so there is an 1/8" lip there.
New injectors, and my fuel gets here Thursday so look for more numbers

It probably would have made 375 on 8 psi if i messed with it much longer. it felt like a waste of time since it will never run on pump. I didn't even bother turning up the boost. I will be running E85 so the tuning I was doing was a total waste.

no doubt the stock head is fine, however my intake manifold is gasket matched and the stock head isnt even close. This leaves a 1/8" lip at the entrance to the port and undoubtedly causes a lot of turbulance.
