sound like you need to play a lot with the safc2 to fine tune it.
other than that, it looks good bro! great job....

Thanks for the comments guys. I have considered new seats, I wanted to get some supra seats for awhile, but enjoyed my heated/power seats. I am pretty much done with the car for awhile, until I save up some money. All that is left to do for now is to fine tune it and get it dynoed so it runs perfectly. My next mod will hopefully be coilovers. I don't ever plan on selling the car. My plans in a few years once I am out of college is to do a V160 getrag swap, turn up the boost, and have it tuned with AEM EMS.

What kind of gas mileage do you turbo guys get? More specifically asking those who are just running basic management like me and my SAFC2.

cant go wrong with red n black oh yea its that the stock red color?

I love the clutch. It feels barely any different from stock and can handle alot more power.
Yes this is the stock red color.

The safc2 was tuned when it got dynoed with the stock injectors. So basically it is street tuned right now. What setting are you referring to?
