Okay i'll take your advise.
I think i will keep hold of the 4bar sensor just incase i take it in for a good tune.

So i dont even need a missing link for the stock MAP? Using john vegas basemap? Sorry probly a stupid question

Ha yeah, i will eventually.

I have a OBX camshaft. Should i not put that on? Ive heard there no good. Shall i just run the stock shaft untill i get a crower camshaft instead?

Ive gone an bought a crower stage 2 cam, skunk2 ti retainers and springs.

If i just get some good rods and pistons, how much boost can i give it?

Will i need a new chip if ive only stated 8 psi for a basemap?

Ur gonna want a tune if you spend the money on the forged internals, and it really depends on your power goals for the boost. if you get the right rods and pistons, forged anyting really, you can push what u want as long as u get a good tune. Remember though that it is all in the tuner

Having my cams fitted tomorrow. Installing turbo next tuesday!

Can you guys just check this for me an make sure its okay. Its my oil feed setup. Where i have arrowed ive drilled a 1.5mm hole which is 0.06 of an inch to help. Will this restrict the pressure and give my turbo what it needs?

i would swap the 2 gauges....use the pin needle to know how much is going to your turbo and the oil sender to monitor your block. i would rather have a burned turbo than a spun bearing
