Might want to get your windows tinted, or else you'll probably end up with glare problems on those gauges... I had mine in the bezel thing, and the one on the left was rarely visible during the day. Just a heads up.

Everything else is looking great thus far

yeh, i know the 700 are overkill, but if i can get them cheaper then 440's i might as well, as long as they will work for my aplication. and on top of that, they have been cleaned and flow tested.

As for the gauges, yeah if i am driving away from the sun at the end of the day, it is sometimes hard to see, i will get tinted, but not for awhile unfortunatly.

I did order my bov, i was orignaly gonna buy my friends greddy type s, but he decided to keep it, so i bought a turbo xs type h-rfl, i know it is realy loud, but i do like the sound.

Well, I still think you should get the 440's. To give you an idea, Im rocking 440 with 17 psi and have yet to hit their max.

Coming together well man!!

Remmy 440s are good till about ~275whp or so, he said he wants to go for 300 so he'll need the larger injectors.

I run 780s, get about 25mpg too. Car runs beautifully, as long as you're running something like Crome you'll be fine as far as controlling them. Lol, at normal cruising speeds my injectors are at like 5% duty cycle.[8D]

wow, thats not bad, i found a set on ebay that have been cleaned, orings and caps replaced, and flow tested, so i am gonna buy those, they arnt too expensive, i did get my intercooler piping and bov yesterday, looks good, ahtough i dont know how i am going to atach the piping to the turbo, i think i need a 2.25 to 2.5 adapter, or something. where do you guys get yours? i dont think i saw any on ebay, i did fine one on the net, sux tho, 30 bux, but they doo look really good.
