Default new here...sort of

i already posted a noob thread here a while back but i got a new car and havent been on here for a while so figured i would reintroduce myself

my car: 1991 240sx hatch. its stock right now. im saving up for a low boost budget build.

my plans right now are as follows:
ebay manni
garrett t3/t4 50 trim
ebay intercooler kit
apexi safc II
emance ecu
450cc deatchswerks injectors
walbro 255
stage II clutch
lc1 wideband

(give me advice on my list if it needs changing)

im looking for around 250-300 hp daily. nothing to serious. just to scare some ls1's around town.

You're not gonna want to shoot for 300whp without addressing the timing (or meth injection), although it can be done (ask me how I know).

pay anyone on hmt who builds manifolds legitimately, to build one. spend the extra $, save yourself the hassle. wow, 304 stainless? easy to make. stainless is not an element, just like bronze is not an element.
