The bigger exhaust significantly leaned out my old map. I have drove it for about 100 miles since the work and have a pretty good street tune on it right now. It is between 11.2-12 AFR in boost all the way to red line. It pulls way harder then it did before. I dont know what kind of numbers I am making but very likely 300whp because I am already at a pretty high injector duty cycle with 650s. I am running about 12psi and I am thinking of going for 14 or 15 and getting some 750cc injectors. But then again I am pretty happy with it right now!

I am glad you like the build. I need to come up with a camcorder so I can get some video footage up. Maybe I can talk my sister into letting me borrow hers.

Yep I definetly outgrew the 650cc injectors I was running. I was at almost 50 psi of fuel pressure with 90% or slightly higher duty cycle. So I put in some 750s and turned the fuel pressure back down to 44psi. Duty cycle has gone done quite a bit so I feel alot safer.

You can do it several different ways. Some people like to buy the sandwich plate that allows you to run lines from it. If you want to go that route I would get this sandwich plate because it is afforadable and well designed Generic Oil Plumbing Kit On my setup I have a t-fitting installed where the oil pressure sending unit is, that is where I ran a line for the vtec conversion. There is another plug in the head right by the water neck that is brass colored or maybe it is brass anyways, I ran a fitting from there to supply oil for the turbo. I have had this setup together for sometime now with absolutely zero oiling problems. Either option will work well.
