Finishes turbo system, got on a Dyno Options

[Smaay]

Well I finally got around to building turbo pipes. that all went fairly smooth. It was tough trying to figure out the routing, i didnt want to go over the head like most FMIC setups. So i clocked the turbo down and went the way i did.

So on the dyno, I ran into the same issue that the Scion is running into with the AEM FIC. We were hitting a block at 4000 RPM,s the car would just shut off. After a quick run to Radio Shack, picked up some 1K ohm resistors and fixed the problem. ill post pics of that later if wanted. The AEM FIC is a good unit and it works well. i need to go back and finish some fine tuning. im getting a lean condition at throttle tip in.

So with that said and done, i made 176HP and 230lbs TQ at 6.5psi. im on the stock exhaust after the ebay downpipe so i really need to open that up. i plan on upping the boost to about 10psi.

That's a really clean, nice looking build! Is that a custom intake plenum, or where'd that come from? Fuel rail, too, is that a custom rail? What size injectors are in there? Well for that matter, what size/spec everything do you have in there?

The only thing that sticks out as odd to me is the placement of the o2 sensor, but I'm basing that purely on aesthetics. Did it have to go right on top there like that? It just seems kind of haphazard, with the wiring strung across the way it is. Or maybe it's just my OCD being rubbed wrong lol (this is a learning process, so bear with me!)
