but i have been through 2 stock turbos sofar, and i am about ready to drop another 800 on a turbo, so if i could have gotten the header too that would have been sweet, I need a Header more than a turbo at the moment well that and a new ECU,, I can not go past 3/4 throtle or i hit my fuel cut lol,, the last install was an under drive pulley, well thanks for all the input, I will probably go with the FP big t28

Ok, so why have you destroyed 2 turbos thus far? I would want to figure out why that's happening before I throw some cash at a new one. Also, you don't need a header. At all. Period. Is it helpful on a hellacious turbo when you're running a super low ET? Sure. Do you need it more than a turbo? Not a chance. The stock 2g manifold flows very well; a little porting takes you even farther.

Pull your ecu out and see if the caps are leaking. If so, find a set of them on MachV or somewhere else, and have them replaced at a TV repair shop or something similar.

The underdrive pully you picked up is, for the most part, a fit of pique. These aren't Hondas. That pully will net you about as much hp as the free mods ... maybe. Go find a reliable upgrade path, and follow it. Get your fuel management under control, make sure your intercooler and piping are up to snuff, etc.
