if you've replaced your internals, atleast a stage 2 on everything (unless u wanna run low boost) which includes all the usual...cams, clutch, pistons, rods, etc...then I would suggest looking on precisionturbo.net, my friend went through three kits for his H22 and (drag, turbonetics, and now Garrett which he purchased off of there) and hes getting the most out of a kit from off there, I went up to the dyno and the specialists there also recommended the site...they should have a good warranty too for whatever you decide to get...

I did it piece-by-piece... I'm only waiting on the manifold and downpipe from blaast performance and I'll be all set.

hahahahaha, please never EVER listen to whomever told you this information, they couldn't be farther from the truth.
honda's auto tranny's have been known to be complete sh1t, especially when you start adding boost to the equation.... they'll blow up in no time.
stick with your manual :wink:

deafy, you still haven't gotten your manifold yet???
damn son!!

as for the blaastperf turbo kits, i've heard pretty good things about them, and thats a pretty good price for an entire kit

but if you wanna get it for even cheaper and learn alot more, piece together your own kit :wink:

tru, but u also get double the headache and by the time u buy all of the little bits and pieces that u need (flanges, fittings, couplers, ic piping) u may end up spending close to the same amount.

You may be right about that... I think I saved a bit of money though. The manifold/dp and hondata s300 really put me over the top but other than that, it was easy sailing.

Blaastperformance had to move their facilities so they should start making mine on June 1st. Then I'll finally be driving my baby and whoop my buddy's scooby stage 2.5.

I originally had the tsudo turbo manifold but it wouldn't fit unless I got a half-sized radiator and there would be issues with the air filter. So I just went ahead and ordered it from blaast. I sent him my WG flanges and o2 sensor bungs so I wouldn't get charged extra for them.
I've not had experience with crome but with the ease of s300, I can't see how crome would be better. S300 offers some things that crome doesn't and I like to monitor everything via laptop. It may be expensive but I'd say thats the best route to go.
Scooby Stage 2.5 is the Subaru WRX with COBB stage 2.5 map. The 2.5 map requires vf30/vf34 turbo upgrade, STi injectors, 3" full turbo-back exhaust. Supposedly pushes 320hp to the crank.
