what supporting mods do i need if i bought stage one and a stage 2 wastegate. and how do i put the wastegate on and how do i turn up the boost and should i go past 17 psi? my car is completely stock other than the riceplate. and if anybody knows, how much hp will i put down? thanks tim

 

Why don't you get a AGP or Forge? Unless you have wider wheels don't worry about how much hp you'll put down. You will only smoke the thin stock wheels and tires.

 

Don't go past 17 PSI. Any guess as to HP is just that,,,,,,a guess. You need to find a dyno.

 

alright ill look into some wheels but tight now i just want to know what else i would need to make everything function properly. i know im gonna get ed hard pipes and a block off plate but other than that what should i look into? and i found a buddy with a s2 wastegate that he'll sell me for 60 bucks so im just gonna use that, but wouldnt the agp be too strong for a stock s1 car?

 

That's what I have on my car...it's been on over 1 month and I haven't blown my motor yet...but I'll keep you informed [&:] Just dont run 1 million psi! I'm only spiking 16 and holding 15...that's good enough till I get a TIP, MAP and tune.

 

AGP FTW!!!

 

What size tires would you recommend and would they fit on the stock wheels? Any other ways to get better traction?

 

what do you need the TIP and MAP for? oh and im only gonna run maybe 16-17 psi at tops for now, does the wastegate set the psi for you or did you have to buy a bc? and i know i gotta get my car tuned after i put it all on, im probably gonna go to raceline tuning. but i was looking at tires and i found some falken 225/45/17 but i was wondering if you can go higher because they have 245/40 and 255/45. so how high can you go or does it matter? i dont know anything about tires so any input would be appriciated.

 

I wanna run more boost...and I wanna make sure I don't blow $hit up! I'm getting EVERYTHING ported: turbo, intake manifold, exhaust manifold, throttle body...EVERTHING. Plus it's cheaper than buying a stage 3, or other big turbo kit.

Ummmmm...I would buy some 7.5 or 8 inch wide rims. I only got 7inch wide rims with 235/45's and they still barely get traction. Going from 1st to 2nd is still pointless...I can spin till 6000rpms if I want to. [&o]

 

really the 205s are the widest you can put on the 6" rims, even 215s would be, for lack of better terms, 'bubbling' around the rim. youll need 7" at the least. but as hemi said, 8" would be ur best shot.
