Default My new turbo setup

So not to long ago I introduced myself and posted a few pics of my supercharger setup on my S2000. I've since decided that it wasn't enough power and decided to invest in a Lovefab turbo setup. Specs follow the pictures.

Gotta love the UPS guy when he drops this off at your door.







The setup:
Garrett GT30R71 turbo, Lovefab manifold and 3" DP, Tial 44mm Wastegate, Tial 50mm BOV, 2.5" ic piping, percision 650hp intercooler. I'm still going to be running the EMS for management along with the RC650cc injectors. Probably going to start off slow, maybe 6-8 pounds. Once I get bored with that I'll build the motor for more boost. Opinions welcomed.

Sweet setup. I think you'll like that turbo. it'll be a much different feel and if you like it, you will officially be a boost junkie.

Good luck, keep us updated and let us know what happens.

PS want more power on pump gas once you decide to turn it up? The EMS can handle it and 2nrwerks tuner can make it happen. I will be dropping meth in two of my setups managed via AEM EMS very soon.

I agree. I did that on my car when it was daily driven to make it quiet and it killed my power so bad you could feel it. I changed it back the next day and had to make another down pipe. Other then that it looks great.

I always thought that a reruote like that NEEDED a flex pipe or it would crack. Basically it doesn't heat up at the same time as the rest of the piping...
