Hmm, strange, I didn't get any email notifications about all of these replies, sorry guys, I don't want ya'll to think I'm a single poster....lol. I guess I'll just have to check here periodically.

So anyways, thanks for all of the compliments. The car is very nice, it used to belong to a friend of mine, and he never drove it, so I figured I'll get it and do something with it. The 1G's are stock internally, I have an open air filter on the stock MAF (or VAF, whatever it's called), a 2.5" exhaust with a flow through muffler (sounds very nice), and a GReddy PRofec B boost controller that doesn't seem to do anything at all. I adjusted the Lo boost, Hi boost, and balance controls, but nothing changes??? I checked all of the connections and they seem to be connected right, but still nothing Sad The exhaust had a catalytic converter in it (wtf???), so I went to my exhaust guy and had a straight pipe welded in place, and now the motor seems to boost quicker, but I only get 9-10psi out of it. The car is kinda fast, but a lot slower than my last car (2002 Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec V with nitrous that ran 13.1 @ 105.4 in the 1/4 mile), but hopefully I can make a lot of power out of this thing. I'm still trying to find a good place to order some oem engine parts like distributor cap and rotor for the ignition, and what the best spark plug wires to get are. Any suggestions???
