Pics of my GT2871R install
 
So this weekend the weather was awesome.. so I decided to pull my old t25 and slap on the new GT2871. Pics:

GT2871 vs SR20 T25:

Turbo sitting on the car. The engine bay is still dusty from the paint shop. As you can see I'm missing one 90 degree pipe that I just got from Scott:

This is the OG (original gangster) RB type 1 if I remember correctly. Two's got extra holes for some reason

Hell yeah.. can't wait for our dyno day. I'm going to order my 15x8s very very shortly.. just don't want to pull the trigger until I sell off yet another hardtop :)

Braineack 02-04-2008 11:14 AM

yeah RB-I, with what looks like Mazdaspeed side skirts.

I can't wait for the next dyno day either (assuming it's after march-ish and there is no salt on the roads). If I don't get to at least 280rwhp I'm ditching the new TT's and going with the 2871 too. What exhaust A/R are you running?

I like the Type 1 nose and the K1's of course!

I wish.. I'm not digging the 949 offsets so I am going to save myself about 500 bucks and end up with 15x8 Sportmax 501's. I wish I could have run a 15x8 / 15x9 staggered setup

Turbo is a .64 AR I scored off ebay. Previous owner decided to blow up his CRX motor within a few thousand miles. The housing wasn't even rusting it was so new. Must have been too much VTEK p0wa!!
