That is a good point, but the obx is a 4-2-1, and not to knock them or anyone that has them, they are not known for awesome quality and fitment. What do you have man? I have just about the same setup as you engine wise. I think I will proably be getting the hwarangs. But I am not sure.

I see your point, but I will have this header for probably 2+ years as getting everything I need for the turbo setup will cost a ton of money. I wouldn't really call that temporary, that is a long time you know? I don't want any buzz, at least I want as little as possible - so people don't look at it an call it rice you know. It is no offense to you or obx, I just want to get it done nice. BTW: could you feel a decent gain with the header? It is 4-2-1 right? The HP hwarang is like $405 shipped for me and I hear it is pretty nice and doesn't buzz too much. Thanks man, I really appreciate your input.

Get the PRS4 while the group buy is going on right now. It's WAY too cheap to pass up. You will regret it later with paying $200 more.

Other than that, make sure your fuel is there with a Walbro and maybe start investing in some Wiseco's.

Once you go turbo, these other n/a mods won't even be noticed or worth it. What's the point in throwing on a pulley to gain 5whp at best, when you can just turn up the boost 1psi and get more hp? See what I mean.

Could I do the walbro now? I wouldn't have to put on an aftermarket fpr would I? Is the prs4 the pivot raizen voltage stabalizer? Does it actually work? Do you have it? I can get it off of ebay for the same $80 price shipped, if the GB is over. Do you still think the header is a good idea, or a waste of money? Thanks man, I really trust your input. cool.gif

Maybe a short-shifter? Also, can always upgrade all your rubber bushings to polyurethane. Sticky tires and light rims are always good. Maybe some CF pieces for weight reduction...thats all I can think of,sorry

You have to put on a full replacement FPR with the Walbro 255. I'm not sure about the 190 though.

The PRS is a standalone ECU for turbo systems. We are having an unbeatable group buy and including a wiring diagram and startup map. It's $675 shipped as opposed to $850.

I already have the b&m short shifter, but jon, where is the prs4 group buy located? And do you have a link for it so I can look into the unit and its abilities? It is really nice that it comes with a wiring diagram and startup map. I would be able to convert to a map with that standalone unit correct? To hell with that header, I want that standalone unit. Thanks. wink1.gif
