I will, I'm trying to decide if I should take it to the Dyno or just meet with the tuner and have it street tuned. I also have my eye on a set of usdm turbos witch I might try and swap at the same time. If that works out I'll definitely go back to see the gains.

thanks.

With your injectors and standalone, I would not bother with USDM twins. You won't really gain power so much as a little bit of reliability. Save that money for the inevitable transmission swap you will need

Vwpride12

I would do it for the reliability. I might be able to get them cheeeeeaaaaapppppp/free! There in a customers basement collecting dust along with a exedy twin disk for a v160, which wouldn't be free.

Well my suspension settled after putting it on the other night and the front sat about a 1/2 inch higher than the rear. I cut 1 dead coil off of the front and brought it down about a 1/2 inch. I have never been one to cut springs but I had to do it. Ill probably upgrade to coilovers when these shocks blow out.

Very nice work love it

I think it's a 255, they were bald when I purchased them. I think I am going to run at least 275's when I replace them. What are you running?

Double thanks!

Yeah, I thought they looked a little small. You can run 275s or more back there, and it sounds like you will be needing them with all your goodies and plans

I'm running 285s and love the way they fit and hook. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/6604426-post112.html

looks good, Do you think a 295 would fit back there?

Depending on the brand, you might be able to. I would probably sitck with a 275 or 285 max because once the sidewall starts bulging, handling and traction will both start to be negatively affected. Also, I have never scrubbed, and I have unmodded fenders. Of course I am not dropped, so you may run into scrubbing issues if you put too much tire back there and you are not rolled.

stockhatch: how did this guy not need a restrictor ring?. And wait just a minute did he say he's running 19PSI?. I believe the recommended safe limit for JDM twins to at lease last is (17.4psi/1.2bar). "Overboost shuffle" LOL

Anyways, Vwpride12 keep up the good work bro. Go easy on those twins.

Thanks Breed

Got my injectors, rail, gauge, and fuel pressure regulator. Ill probably put them on next week after I get my new rear tires.
