Well, I got tired of waiting and trying different exhaust manifolds so I decided to get an E05 and keep the stock manifold and airbox. In my opinion this is where most of the big turbo upgrades have issues. I am having it installed this Saturday at EuroCode. I am planning on installing a Nitrous system(which I already have) as well. The nitrous will act as a power adder as well as a charged air cooler (much like an extra intercooler).
Once the install is complete we will take it to AMS and tune it all out on the dyno. I will have a few different tunes. One for the E05 on 91 octane, another for the E05, nitrous and 91 octane and then the full race tune of E05, nitrous, and 100 octane.
I am hoping to make 240 - 250 CHP with the E05 and near 300 CHP with the nitrous. I know that nitrous is feared by many but I have used it on many different cars and have always found it to be awesome, especially when used with a turbo.
