Hey guys I picked up a 2000 Lude non SH already with JRSC installed along with 255lph fuel pump, MSD 6AL ignition, a/f gauge and boost gauge. I see a small boost retard dial as well. He stated that he believes car was tuned at Jotech in Dallas and the mod list states "3 stacked racing chips". I have never heard of this and I'm just coming off a fully built B16A del Sol project but I was allmotor/nitrous so this FI stuff is new to me. Is it possible Jotech tuned it with their own EMS and simply installed new chips based on these tunes and therefore car needs no aftermarket EMS installed because there isn't one in here? He has the JR piece of crap intake still so I want to know what the best intake & header setup is. I hear SMSP but what about Kamikaze? He has a damn DC sport right now. He claims running 8psi and I was curious what's the max psi stock injectors can handle or the stock engine for that matter? I remember seeing that B series shouldn't go higher than 6-7 lbs boost. How can I know what kind of SC pulley is installed? Thanks in advance for all your help.

As far as intakes go I used to have the Secret Weapon from Weapon-R...dual tube design and they have their own heat shield, but with the modified TB location not sure how it will work having to cut through two tubes instead of one. I also see all these short rams with the fatter front or rear ends and I just don't know what to choose that has a big enough tube for SC. Guess Thompson Megatube is also non-existant.

oh yeah weapon r has cold air extension tube too! Are you all just using plain 3 inch pipes from like autozone or something?

Can I cut the power steering belt off with this setup? This car is doing something funny, has air in system and makes noise as if it's low on fluid, but it's full. I also read that they come with their own thermostat so why do so many people say go out and buy one? If one is needed who makes one for lude-Mugen? Is the mugen fan switch a recommendation? Haven't seen anyone recommend that. Why does Jackson sell cheap $5 plugs? Shouldn't we use colder Iridium IX plugs?
