Should be good to see your results when done. Also are you gonna run any NOS? I've been playing around with the idea for a while now and have decided that ill be going down this path. It will only be using probably either a 75hp kit or 100hp kit to help the turbo spool up and eliminate most of the lag. I've researched it a fair bit and it should do wonders. Also my friend who runs his S15 Silvia in the low 11's gave me the low down on the benefits as he has spent countless hours fine tuning his drag S15 and he praises NOS for eliminating most of the lag he suffers from his T51R.
Are any guys running Nitrous in the States? I know there is 2 SC300 running it in Australia. Any opinions?

As for NOS? well, if you drag race your car, then yes. Yes, I would run NOS to eliminate the lag response. However, I daily drive my car so being able to use NOS, let alone boost more than 14 lbs in Los Angeles traffic, is going to be super rare if not non-existent. So to answer your NOS inquiry, I would have to say "no" for me. Personally? I would use the NOS as an intercooler "chiller."

I'm not sure where he got his, but I got mine straight from GReddy a lil over a year ago. Took about 6-7 months to arrive from Japan and ordered back in December 2003!
For hitting 1bar of boost, there is no way that I can hit that on the local streets during the day. The only times, I will actually see that kind of boost power would be on the freeway on ramp and really late at night on open highway.

hey kaotiq, how did the installation of the Greddy Ultimate go?
I might need help in the future to install the thing if I get the ultimate instead of the blue/VPC combo.

King: Install is put on hold now because of the ECU issues. GReddy has some problems with their ultimate system
Idrew: I held off on the install with the GReddy ultimate after conferring with some of the supra bretheren. There are some firmware issues and it doesn't seem like GReddy will have it solved soon.
I am debating now whether or not to go with the AEM or Power FC. The AEM looks great, but I am confused as to how to keep the AC function running. I believe CleanSC has solved it for the 2JZGE ecu, but not sure on the 1JZ.

If I dont do it there are already a bunch of MK3 guys doing it. I bury myself in wiring diagrams everynight. Right now its all on paper as my block is going to the machine shop this week. 
Whatever issues AEM/1jz have will or to be fixed for me as Iam going to run a high boost(and hopefully horsepower application 
) I never like greddy e-mangae as many cars equipped with it have come to my old shop and had problems with it. HKS wont work for as I cant touch it myself only a HKS Pro dealer can, (time and money). AEM is the only management I will run so I have no choice but to figure it out or some one else will before me

Currently im running with the Power FC in my Soarer and couldn't be happier. My tuner is a mad bastard when tunning it and knows exactly what maps suit my need for huge horsepower figures.
I know the capabilities of the Power FC. My friend had his for his FD and it works great. The AEM is just more readily available here.
