next upgrade?
im still running the stock TB. i also have the 3.5" BR deluxe FMIC. so what should i do next? BR 4.5" FMIC or bigger TB. if i sell the FMIC i got then im looknig at about the same money for each. which gives more power? the FMIC im thinking.... what do you guys think? mods in sig.

Personally, I'd get the FMIC first, then the TB. I've seen the crazy power these things make just by bolting one on.
I would say the TB, since you have the piping and intake manifold to complement it. You can always do the IC later, since the deluxe by no means sucks.

im torn. i boost leaked it last night of and course my TB seals are leaking pretty bad. not an expensive fix. but why replace the seals and not get it bored. also, i know the cooler i got is decent, but i plan on 40+ psi and i dont think its gonna hold out for that. i also have a blitz bov ive had forever and it leaks now. i suppose i should fix my boost leaks first as i know thats a no,no. so TB first, then bigger IC and tial BOV. i should have my injectors soon so i can make the switch to E85.

True. I figured you'd maximize your setup even more with either a BR race or their 4.5 intercooler considering the turbo you're running. But since your seals are shot, it might be better to replace that first.
i bought this intercooler when i first got the car. you know, before i wanted a 700hp car. LOL the car seems to be down a bit on power at my boost level. i havent took it to the dyno as the one that was close by is gone as of last friday. i been using VDR for the hell of it. it shows 475 @ 26psi on DJ setting. i know its not a real dyno and i am taking it with a grain of salt. what i am more interested in is the power curve. it peaks around 7300 and falls hard after that. im thinking my leaky BOV and TB are the culprit. im sure it could use more boost on 93 but im scared. LOL i cant afford another motor. besides its plenty fast to get me in trouble around town.

FMIC sounds like your best option so it can breath better keep the temps down and less knock....Originally Posted by DerekEVO

i have a solution........ i need to start a for sale thread because i got all kinds of stuff i need to sell along with my BR deluxe IC. that way i can do all this at once and be done with it! LOL
