I got my self roughly 400 bucks right now to spend on the car, and would like to spend my money wisely for once
I want th best bang for the buck.. so please help with some suggestions on hat to do.

Current set up:
Hard UICP
1G BOV crushed
mbc -15psi
3" Cat back (ready to go on)
Got a data logger, but cant get it to work yet..

what I was planning is a 3" downpipe-straight through
But what else would be good with the money left over? I was thinking a 14b turbo, with an "install kit".. This way I dont have to do major changes to fuel system just yet?

please provide your input

Invest in an RRSP:P

Key word being spend..
Saving money is not some thing I can do

For 400 your almost in range to get a MAFT. I personally noticed a HUGE difference going to a maft. I got bigger intake pipes when I did that. I went all out and spent about 600 in piping alone though. If you got an UICP You should be able to switch over to a maft. You might have to buy used to get everything for it. Thats just personally what I would first to the next talon I have.

For a 3" downpipe on a 14b I have heard you will some times get boost creep. Because im only running a 14b when I get the talon back on the road. I plan on just doing cat back exhaust.

This is ofcourse my input. Someone else might have a better route to go. There might be better route if your driving a 2g. Also if you have awd or fwd. I have a 1g fwd and the MAFT, and piping has made the biggest difference.

Whatever you do, never ever piss into the wind...

I just had a look at your profile and did not see if you have an upgraded Exhaust. I would suggest you to go that route or get a biger Fuel Pump.

Whatever you do, do a suporting mod that will suport future modification.

^^ i assume you just skimmed my post
Exhaust is already here (just not on the car) and a straight through down pipe will be coming eventually.

Walbro 190 and a set of used 550cc injectors.

If you can keep that below 250, I would then get a logger or something, and up the boost.

I already have a logger.... I just have to figure out how to work it (USB OBDII cable, which i cant figure out why wont connect to car)
I was thinking:
14b turbo
Install kit
save the money left, then buy a walbro and injectors.
Does this sound like a logical way to go? I already have my boost at 15-16 psi, and from what I read online thats about as far as the T-25 will take me. So I figure with the 14b I can stay at the 15psi (would notice a bit of a gain right? because it has a larger flow?)
Then get the fuel pump and injectors to raise boost even higher?

Or am I thinking about this the wrong way?

Buy a 16G, rewire your pump.

I cant afford a 16G right now.. they go for a little more dont they? Plus I would need the jpipe etc any ways.. so it would be way out of my price range.

Save it for gas money, now that summer's coming.

Keep saveing your money up for a 16g, they only run about 600 bux do they not? Or is the money burning a hole in your pocket?lol OR you could go to subway and buy 40 12"steak and cheese subs! mmmmm..... subway. haha

the money is burning a hole in my pocket Just sold my PS3 got a wii instead, and now I need to replace my PS3 gaming with some thing to make my car a little funner

I have a big t28 for sale. Thats a good 2g mod, you dont have to change all the lines like the 16g and spools way better.

Heck, jump on that T28 offer, add a Walbro 190 and some Injectors and you'll be rocking all the way home.

Ghislain.

I also have a walbro 190 pump I may be selling aswell.

How much for the t28 and possibly the pump?

Some people have sucess with MAFT and some people don't.

I wasted all of last summer trying to set up my MAFt, in my opinion it is one of the worst things to buy.

T-28 and more fuel sounds like a good idea. EPROM and a chip (or better yet DSMlink) is a worthwile investment too.

I just "sold" my eprom a little while ago
The t28 sounds niiiice, I pm'd him, crossing my fingers

Just a question, with the t28, and no fuel mods(for now) If i have the boost set at stock 10psi, would I notice any gains? The turbo flows more so I assume so?

The big t28 will flow a little more at stock boost. I thought 2g's ran 14 psi stock? but the turbo's sweet spot is 21 psi and for that a fuel pump is needed. I ran 18 psi with no injectors and a pump and it felt way faster then the t25 but 550's and a 190 would be the best setup.

400 bucks?


rewire the stock fuel pump.....

do the maft....and when u get the gm sensor...take the screen out and cut out the center section and hollow that bitch right out....
i did...
and once u get the dattalogger working...
