    With forced induction it doesn't matter as much as NA since almost every runner receives equal boost as long as its a good ffim. The stock one will be good but the bends and longer runners will only help with low end torque and your top end won't be utilized as well but if it's just a street car that's honestly ideal.

      So today I found a super good deal on some suspension parts so I snagged them up real quick. Got a decent look at what the car is gonna look like with some wheels, also tried on my friends 14s lol.

        For some reason I like those 14's. Old school wheels suit this car very well!

          As much as I wanna run tiny wheels I wanna be able to drive it everywhere with 0 issues. It was on back on the 17s tonight and the mudflaps are 1 inch from the ground. I'm gonna have to do some adjusting / maybe change up the wheel combo lol

                Kinda lame video but last night we got it moving on it's own for the first time. Seems like it has a miss, and breaks up a bit when it hits boost. Going to be looking over a few things.

                  RB20DET, 5 spd, and I threw in some CXRacing coils with 12k and 8k spring rates (just S13 stuff). A little bouncy/stiff for a street car but oh well.

                  Currently diagnosing a misfire myself - only happens at full boost around 4-5k RPM... so far I've tested all coils (all within spec at 0.9 ohm), J30 ignitor swap, walbro 255 lph in tank fuel pump, cleaned/oiled the BOV... inspected the vacuum system for leaks but don't see any, but I'm going to plumb in a boost gauge to check pressure and I got my hands on 3 more coils that are within spec so I'm going to do some swap and testing tomorrow... at worst grab my buddy's boost leak tester and get around to doing an RB25 turbo swap that I have sitting in my closet at the same time.

                  EDIT: Car looks good, interested on your FMIC setup, know it couldn't hurt with the 25 turbo. The 14's are too small but do look pretty rad. I picked up some Linea Corsa Crimson wheels for it but haven't gotten around to refinishing them yet. It has some sweet old skool 16" volk GTU's on it now though with fresh Ecsta's so I'm in no hurry.

                    are you running more than stock boost on the oem ECU? With the added parts you're going to need a tune for it to run well.

                      Hey man don't worry about the s13 rockers. I got some new ones for a steal.

                        If you're asking me nope, just gonna swap the RB20 turbo actuator on the RB25 turbo to stick with 9-10 psi.

                          I was talking to freddie because of his misfire under boost but that sounds cool too.

                            A tune? Why would it need a tune if it's completely stock apart from the fmic? Seems as it's a misfire completely, but breaks up a bit under boost. Im sure there is a vac leak somewhere and I'm going to check the coil packs tomorrow.
