Yea I'll try.. I want to do the arms, subframe bushings, and front lower ball joints at once so I can get it aligned one time... Probably around labor day weekend when I have a good amount of days to work on it..

In other news I finally started getting it tuned by romisburning.. While tuning I was running like 8lb's of boost but the engine would start going lean at around 6k rpm.. So we set the rev limit to 5.5k and I leave to go home.. As soon as I started to get into boost it would go lean.. When I got home I added tons of fuel but that didn't help at all.. Over the next couple weeks I got all the injectors cleaned and flow benched, rewired the walbro fuel pump (I can actually hear it now), and installed the Fuelabs fuel pressure regulator.. It still goes lean as I get into boost and I've noticed that it's really random.. Sometimes I can get to like 5lb's before it starts getting lean, other times I can't even accelerate normally from 70-75mph before going lean.. Next thing I'm going to do is replace the fuel pump with a new walbro, bosch 044, or supra pump.. I kinda want to go with dual pumps just in case e85 becomes available in the area..

I also plan on getting a meth injection kit from snow performance so I can get closer to that 500whp on pump goal of mine.. If the GT35 can't push that then I think I'll be buying a precision 6262 or borgwarner s366...

But anyways.. Here are some of the latest pics..

Have you checked for a boost leak?

check the bov also to see if its leaking

Well if I had a boost leak wouldn't it go rich in boost since it thinks there is more air entering than there actually is?

love the name of the project... fits the ride right now

yeah sorry had it mixed up for a second

Ok I fixed the problem.. I bought and installed a new Walboro fuel pump.. There may have been a few reasons it wasn't getting fuel with the old walboro pump.
1. It may have been worn out since it could have been in there for years
2. When I took it out the hanger wasn't attached to the fuel tank so the pump was just floating and bouncing around in the tank
3. It had an s13 fuel sock on it instead of the longer s14/ 97-01 prelude fuel sock on it so it was starving from fuel

Next up is finish tuning it.. Then maybe meth kit...

I hooked up a manual boost controller and heard what the turbo sounds like at 18psi.... damn............ ....

dont do this to me mennnnn

Soon one of these as well:



I also got the Apexi AVC-R controlling boost now and is set at 1 bar.. I need to advance my ignition timing by like 10 degrees all around and finish fine tuning my fuel..

How you liking the AVC-R

It's nice.. I still need to figure it out some more since the boost is creeping on me..

Btw, I started installing the meth kit.. Should be done by tomorrow.. Then get tuned and such.. Then find a new trans when I blow my current one..
