Well my name is Mark and I'm from Cincinnati Ohio. I got my speed last february in pretty ****ty shape...paid too much. It burned over a quart of oil between fillups. The previous owner who denies anything being wrong with it when he had it, well that's another story altogether. My car was down for about 6 months and I just recently got it back. I have a built block now thanks to Kisor Performance here in Cinci! On to the Car

2003.5 MSP - Laser Blue Mica
67786 miles and counting
8.5:1 Wiseco Forged Pistons
K-1 H-Beam Forged Connecting Rods
ARP Head Studs
Cometic Gaskets
Injen Intake
Custom Exhaust - Corksport axleback/test pipe
Alpine 7876
Autometer Carbon Fiber Gauges - A/F Boost Oil Pressure (NEED SENDER FOR IT!!! Hook it up someone)

Thats me and my car, looking forward to moving on to better bolt-on parts now and an EMS. Thinking about trying to push 14 psi w/ 440cc injectors and all kinds of fun stuff.

I almost forgot...the performance goals for my car. I hope to be running at least 250-260 whp and have a very quick and responsive car in the end of it.

Parts I hope to have in the future:
3" Vibrant exhaust or 3" Perrin Exhaust
Custom FMIC Setup
Intake Manifold
Walbro Fuel Pump
440cc Injectors
Exhaust Manifold (when they come around)

Are you planning a turbo upgrade or are you just going to run stock and up the boost? Sounds like a good setup and as long as you got a good head gasket, it should hold the kind of boost you are talking about. Good luck with the rest of the build and are you planning on coming down for any of the upcoming events?

[MSpeed2397]

I'm not too sure on upgrading the turbo...it all depends really. I think the stock turbo will be good for my setup for a while though. I have a Cometic MLS head gasket w/ ARP head studs. I think it should hold that amount of boost quite well. I'm not 100% positive, but I would think. As far as coming down, I would love to, but I can't. If I wanna mod my car at all from this point on I gotta save money bigtime.

[Boostd 3]

understandable. And yes I think that setup should work fine on the head gasket.
