Along with the RA gear set, it should be good fun. I don't care too much about peak power numbers, etc.

a-men!!

i like your conservative estimations here....

looks like a well thought out/planned out build you have established here....

i like the idea of the hydra... (this is total standalone, correct??)

who, praytell, are you going to for tuning?

((and more pics, please, as you can get them!))

ese

ese: Yes, one of Jerry's 16Gs. I'm doing the tuning myself.

More pics to come.

EDIT: And yes, it's full standalone. Link

BTW, if anyone wants to receive messages as I post them (often with pics) to the project's website, it is all being managed by a "Basecamp" instance at http://wristpin.seework.com/

I need you to email me (or post here) your email address to add you. The site's privacy policy is very strict, so I would not worry about spam being generated from adding you.

High hp Subarus often max out the MAF sensor requiring “large” MAF housings which can cause fuel metering and load calculation problems. Element allows you to run speed density alleviating these issues and opens the door to run larger turbochargers with 4” inlets.
oh, hell yeah............

pls add me!



thnx

Nice little setup you got there, can't wait to see the results.

I had my mind set on a td05-16g from Jerry before I traded her in. I've heard nothing but great things from that turbo, plus Jerry really know's what's going on over there.

Good luck and let us know how it turns out.
