Well, as my car will be sitting in my Garage this winter in Michigan, I'm gonna have at least 5-6 months to work on her...

Here's what I'm thinking...

Garret T28
Custom Manifold - I know a guy who will do one for me at a reasonable price.
GT-S injectors
Spearco FMIC (probably 9x11)
BOV, Boost controller, etc...

and of course all necessary tubing and tuning...

I plan on running safely on stock internals, around 7psi... maybe more at the track... but around 7psi for daily driving...

Question: Is this feasable? I've never done a custom turbo before but, There's a first time for everything right?

Any info is greatly appreciated...

yes it is feasible BUT you state tuning but you dont say anything about a standalone or anything of that matter, your depending on the stock ECU to control the fuel? and you only intend on upping the injectors, thats it? no return fuel work or anything..

Well, I'll be running a return fuel line... and I was figuring an S-AFC could handle the ECU right?

This is why I'm asking... I need to get all my ducks in a row before November...

odds are the stock ECU and AFC arent going to be enuf.. your most likely going to want a standalone system like the TEC II or repogrammed ECU that David Draper will be selling with his GT kit.. IMHO your better of just waiting for that kit to come out
