Hi from New Zealand.
Hi my names Jason inherited my 2002 type rs from my late father few years ago. Sat around for about 2 years but I’ve been driving it for about a year now. Awesome car to drive have put a new soft top on and made it a space in the shed so it’s a bit more loved haha. I intend to turbo it as it’s little under powered for my liking, I’ve always owned turboed Japanese cars and other modified cars so used to a bit more power.
I’m a fabricator by trade and have built a couple of cars up over the years. I’ll do a build up thread as I get into it. I’ve mounted the intercooler just waiting on flanges for manifold and bends for piping.

Finished this over the weekend few bits to tidy up going to make a cover to hide intercooler and radiator.
initial test drives are ok I’ve got it idling well but it has an issue under boost. Bang on 7psi or 150 kpa it falls completely flat like no fuel. I’m running a megasquirt pnp stock fuel pump and regulator with pink sti injectors. If I rev slowly keeping under 7psi it’ll go to red line. I don’t have anyway of monitoring fuel pressure (I’m looking it that now) I’m wondering if the stock which is actually an after market replacement pump or the stock fuel pressure reg are not up to it. Otherwise happy as right now!! Just need to sort it for the holidays!!
