crankwalk is just an excuse to upgrade

Get a 2.5" downpipe along with testpipe; you are going to want either a fully ported o2 housing or a tubular one. Do you know what kind of catback you have?

Ha, lag lag lag lag lag.

Just put a FMIC on it. Your parents might notice that monstrousity Supra sidemount hanging down all wacked out in your wheel well.

I have a 97 GSX with ACT 2600 clutch, catback exhaust, boost controller and running at 15 psi on my stock t25

Get a downpipe. get an uicp / blow off valve. Get an intake filter (pipe if you really want it).
Then upgrade your stock turbo to a direct bolt-on t-28. Raise boost to around 17psi. You would feel the difference. You won't need supporting mods on the t-28 unless you go higher. 17 should be safe. Just don't beat the crap outta the car.

I wouldn't go 14b. Stock to Stock, why not just get a bigger upgrade?

Alright, thanks everyone. I want some power but not too much for right now so I think I'm going to go with the t28 and leave the stock intercooler. And yea I need a downpipe. With the crankwalk nightmares I've been having I'd rather wait to go big so not to help speed up the process. :) .. yes two days in a row, I've had crankwalk nightmares lol.

just fyi.

The act2600 would put alot alot more pressure on your crank.
This increases your chances of getting crankwalk.

I have an Apexi N1 I believe.. but theres a hole where the muffler meets the pipe from rust.. damn salt, so I guess I'll have to get that fixed before I do my upgrades.

Bahh I know.. it's a long story. I was going to get a ACT 2100 but I had such a limited time to install a new clutch because my factory clutch went out and this is my only car. So I ended up getting a ACT 2600 with 1k miles on it from a friend.

Just put a FMIC on it. Your parents might notice that monstrousity Supra sidemount hanging down all wacked out in your wheel well.You could put a front mount on and paint it with a very light coat of flat black so it doesn't stand out. ;)
