You'll have to do some research.As for the injectors...at around $1000 a set don't think short term. You'll have to have your ECU reprogrammed for your intake & injector choices too. So plan your build & do it once. If 500 is your goal then 555's will do fine. If you think you'll want more then get the bigger inj's now. You'll also need a top notch tuner. The specialt Z guys that hit the 500 mark on stock turbos are some of the best.
Read over the link above and see if you still want "500 until the turbos go" it's not as easy as it sounds.
Thats a pretty interesting article i know the stillens have 2" piping im wondering if the stillens can just have the 2" attached to them or be modified? its really hard to see the different colors on those graphs though. im curious as to how much horse power the one guy with the stillen sidemounts ended up making? and what was the most horse power made on the z1 600 since thats pretty much what im running, the hybrid turbos i was referring to was what Z1 sells the stock turbos with bigger housing and chra wheels.
