if your doing internals you might want to check into valve springs theyr easy to replace by yourself once you've got the head apart.

The gears are ratioed so that maximum speed in 5th is 135mph. However much you think you're doing 140mph in 5th, YOU'RE NOT. Sorry but I didn't know where to search for the pictures, because as you pointed out, i'm new to this place. They're not on this thread anyway.
So who remapped the ECU for you? What boost are you running to get 250bhp? Can it be increased or is that the limit for the standard engine internals?

Has anyone put the turbokit to a VVT-i (GT)? I'd like to hear from results.

The Apexi power FC comes pre-programmed with a/f ratios, fuel maps and a bunch of other options like when the sun rises. It is pre-programmed by XS Engineering in Huntington Beach, California, USA.

I gotta see this, and with everything you had to change to get the turbo in there, plus install, what did it cost you?

I installed it myself with the help of my friends. Took about 2 weeks. Got a huge deal on the kit. $4500 shipped. Bottle at Titanmotorsports.com is the hook up i got.
