Here's what's going in. . .
1988 10th AE
Haltech E6K
550 primaries/1600 secondaries
GReddy FMIC (old style. . .for sale) Probably custom Spearco next.
Garrett 60-1 .70 compressor 1.15 exhaust
3" exhaust to Apexi GT catback
HKS cast manifold
HKS 40mm wastegate
HKS EVC I boost controller
Walbro 255 fuel pump
Black Magic fan
Greddy boost and EGT gauges
Autometer Phantom A/F and Oil pressure gauges
That's the power system, more or less. Here's the other stuff:
East Bear headlight kit
Mazdaspeed replica pedestal wing
300ZX TT wheels with 225/50-16 all around
Ground Control coil-over kit
KYB AGX shocks
SS braided clutch and brake hoses
Custom reupholstered 10th AE seats
Pioneer head unit
Bazooka 8" tube
EL gauge faces
There may be more, but that's off the top of my head.

everything looks good only thing i would suggest is the NEW style greddy v-spec intercoolers they are awesome. you will probably have a problem zeroing out the timing on the haltech...... if you do pm judge ito so you don't have the timing advancing + 180 degrees

oops. .I forgot to throw that in. . .I've currently got an ACT HD street. . .I'll keep it as long as it will hold
I'm also going to use a stock 3rd gen flywheel until the money comes in to get a good lightened one.
As far as the timing, I don't forsee too much of a problem. It was really easy setting up my 13B-T motor when I first got the Haltech. Is there any reason that the RE would be any harder?
My only concern with the new Greddy setup is that I'll end up cutting a lot of the suppplied piping, and not using it. Seems kind of a waste. . . I'm considering something along the lines of a 20 x 7.8 x 3.5 core (Spearco 2-178). As for the piping, maybe something like SoulAssassin on the other forum did. See picture. . .
Power-wise, 400RWHP IS my goal. However, if I can hit a nice, reliable 350-375 to the ground at a moderate boost level, I'll be ecstatic. I know that 87GTR from the Team forum was putting down 330 RWHP @ 8psi just a few weeks ago. That's pretty impressive. I THINK he was using a slightly smaller turbo than me, buthe also had BDC tuning his car.
In the end, I'll get what I get. Whichever way it goes, I should have quite a bit more than my last dyno (269.5 RWHP @ 10psi) I was using a CRAP custom manifold with extremely retarted timing and super rich fuel. Wish me luck!

thanks, revvin' !! :bigok: I'm REALLY happy now that my old motor had eaten its housings, etc. That put me in a position to dive into this motor. I like it because I'm trying to keep my car in that "just a little different from the rest" category.

Revvin', are you using a 60-1 HiFi hybrid? I had one like that on my old 87 TII. I ended up selling it to Dave Gibson for his Project 86 car. I absolutely LOVED that turbo! I only lost a few hundred RPMs to additional spool-up time, but then it pulled like crazy all the way to the redline! :bigthumg: Very, very nice turbo.
Have you dynoed your car with its current setup? What injectors, etc?
