The easiest path may not be the cheapest path, functinality goes out the window when you design a car for other than its intended purpose. If your into auto-xing then by all means a lightly modified engine and a stout suspension are in order. If your into drag racing then more power and traction are your ultimate goals. if your into a daily driver for cruising the local hot spot and the occasional romp throguh the gears there is another path, not all paths lead to the same goal, and each path will effect your wallet differently. Choose the path you wish to take, and let us know, from there folks here can give you tried and true methods of putting the car to the goal you wish. But the question you have asked is too vauge and cannot be answered simply.



For example if you plan on daily driving the car, 1600cc injectors are not going to be on your wish list, nor will a T-78 turbo kit.



I have watched the forum for quite a while, ask specific questions and they will be answered, just understand you will be relying on opinion if you ask general questions.

Not too bad of mods done to it. At least you have a S5 turbo to make some power.

Great replys so far.



I am still a bit undecided on what I'll do.



Option 1



Found a Used haltech brain for $500 from Juan at www.biststone.com I could use this and get the plugin harness, or get rid of the stock harness with the flying lead. This would leave me enough money to buy a walboro, Aeromotive FPR, AN lines essentialy a Parrellel Fuel setup. This I hope would make the car last with the Full RB Exhaust (which I have sitting in my room) And get the stock injectors cleaned at RC engineering. With this Id hope it would last until I can afford a rebuild.



Option 2



Pull the engine, (the car is essentially apart right now. the only thing on it is PS, Turbo, Cas, oil cooler. LIM) Send the engine to Kevin Landers in TN and get it streetported. Not essentially getting the kind of motor that I'd want but at least I would have a fresh motor. Block off all emmissons, Buy a small Jaz catch tank for the oil vent system. and Buy a S4 Pulsation damper. But this would bring me back to the orginal problem of not having enough Fuel. A walboro, FCD, New engine, and RB Exhaust is what I would have with this. But I still would be a bit paranoid with having a fresh engine and no Standalone.



Keep in mind I have only $1400 to fix this problem at the moment and any help in the right direction would cause me not to get gray hairs over this. lol..



Once again thanks for the replys so far great work..

I forgot to mention, that my main concerin is reliablity over power, while climbing up the power ladder. I'd like to auto cross, and take the car to the strip every once and a while. And basicly burn a few ricers. But for now the car would basicly be 90% A to B and the %10 would be for kickin *** on the weekends. (when theres not 6 ft of snow on the ground!)



Anyway, I do have alternate transportation, and Time is really not an issue with this car. I would essentailly build it for fun and some long haul trips. (which I know the rotary can do)



My goal for HP is about 300hp with a TO4/60-1 Still maintaing the daily driver factor.



Also Suspension is still in good shape, Koni blues (non adjustable) and DTSS eliminator bushings are installed.



Any opinons welcome.

Skip parrellel fuel system. just eliminate the pd, and run stock fuel lines/rails/fpr. Just get a walbro. You don't have enough money for a standalone+ supporting mods, ie: dyno time or $400 wideband.

You're gonna need a boost controller to, but you could get a manual one of ebay for $30. You don't want to be going past 10psi of you want the turbo to last. Not to mention past compressor effiecency, huge increase in backpressure, and ic effiecency. Stock fuel injectors plus fcd and rewired walrbo will handle 10psi just fine.
