Small update, i know alot of people dont usually like glowshift but personally ive had them on my s13 for years and no issues. Also i've helped many others install their boost gauges and they work well and accurately from what ive seen. So Im excited ! 52mm to replace the clock. Only gauges that will be in the car is this and the wideband.

Ok guys, Im having slight trouble on deciding my engine management now. Previously my main plan was to buy a haltech sprint 500 because it seems like a good system and well priced. However after talking to the supplier ( Real Street Performance ) in a short simple way to explain what they told me That system only is capable of managing 4 or 8 cyl engines. So now im going to have to save up for longer to buy most likely the AEM EMS V2 that plugs into the factory harness.  

But here is my problem, I have the NGK AFX wideband as ive posted earlier which does not have any output signal wires to give the ems a wideband signal. So my question is do i need to have a wideband signal to the EMS ? or is there some other way ? I really dont wanna buy another wideband and i love the NGK one.

Hmm, that one is slightly confusing to me. Personally on my AFX i only have pos and neg leads .. no output wires. Thanks for that post its just slightly opposite of my question. I just need to know if the EMS needs the wideband input to be coming from the aftermarket wideband gauge. or if it can use the factory o2 sensors to get its af ratio reading.

Its really frustrating because i dont know if i need to buy another wideband that has an output signal ( which i really do not want to do ) so it can supply the EMS with wideband information.

Now that i found it i can relax, ill just use this one and not have to worry now ! but yeah im hoping to order some more stuff before the end of this week. It will be awhile before i get my management ordered but i'm still looking for an ic piping kit that will require little to no modification. Its just tough because since my turbo is bottom mount its alttle difficult to find the right piping. and i have to have my down pipe custom made so i still have alot to get done.

Update, got my exhaust materials and the return oil flange for the turbo.

Currently im talking to a couple people to get some welding done. Hopfully will find someone locally who can help me out. Until then, ill be planing on my exhaust design.
