Off topic: Damn... I turned down a job interview with Garret Technologies about 4 years ago. Honeywell was in trouble back then.

Haha, I updated a few days ago somewhere in this thread but anyways.

I installed my coilovers and wheels today. KW Variant 2's... kinda eh. I love the ride, and it did drop significantly, but it's still like 6 inches off the ground in front, so I need to order some new springs from KW, shorter springs for the application so I can have it about 2 inches off the ground for events.

The wheels... MRR HR2's. The dude I ordered them through ordered the wrong sizes for me, so I have to wait until Tuesday to see what was going through his head when he placed the order, haha. He ordered me the staggered fitment I wanted, but screwed up the offsets pretty bad, the rears are sunken way too far in, like 3 inches. So I hope it was a mistake, if not I have to pick new wheels out and do an exchange.

The turbo setup is underway. I started stocking up on parts. I got a hold of a Greddy Hybrid FMIC 24x12x3, a Greddy Type S BOV, and a Garret GT25 Turbo from a SR20DET. The stock turbos are set to 7 pounds through the actuator, so I'm going to see how we do with two of these in the rear. I've gotta keep getting parts slowly, fuel management is next on the list.

tuning is going to be the biggest issue here... everything else is semantics... can't wait to here what you come up with for tuning.

you are more than correct sir. so far we have a few ideas, we'll experiment and see what works best when we get everything put together and on the dyno for tuning.

Are you planning on sticking with the maf sensor set up or moving towards a map sensor like the srt6? (I believe that's how they're set up).

I suppose if all else fails, you could move to a stand alone ecu.
