I just repaired my stock GTS and am going to commence with the install of the turbo kit i have ready on the side. Just for the record my turbo is in the mold of the HASS turbo kit with extra/different from the list an STi BOV, Emanage Ultimate (i have someone thats worked on it before), water injection system and headers. Im not willing to go above the 9PSI cuz i wona keep it a daily driver.
My car has a 5 speeder on to it.
I want suggestions from you as to how i should use my turbo.
What i was thinking was to use the turbo form the 2500-6000 rpm then let the vvtl-i do its thing cuz from what i understood that ill be loosing out on the advantage of the turbo if i use it in the lift range of the rpm.
What do you think?!?!?!

you don't need lift when you have boost.

Oh, and drop the emanage and get yourself a standalone ecu.

headers? um not really, the manifold replaces your HEADER. and lift is awesome with turbo. i though you wanted my car?

-Cant use a header. You use a manifold instead.
-You cant shutdown the forced induction of the turbo at certain rpm, like you could do with a shot of nitrous (with a window switch).
-Lift and turbo? Well, this is one of my dyno runs, and you can see clearly a 60hp jump (aprox) in a 300rpm range, from the lift point (6.2k). So yes, lift and turbo are good friends...
