what are your power goals?
what is your budget?

two MAIN questions.

[MrBojangles]

AMS GT32 = perfect turbo for a KA-T, in price and power.

anyways i guess goodluck with the rb25...... weak :/

[babowc]

ams gt32 skyrocketed in price. :(

mrbojangles, what are you tuning your setup with???

[bluestreak]

[MrBojangles]

yeah they used to have gt32's at 650 and gt35's at 950 >< lol glad i got mine when i did.

I'm tuning it with a emanage ultimate and its wonderful, piggy back so i pass obd-ii emissions, i can adjust timing, datalog, control up to 900+cc injectors, and if you have a compatable wideband you can set the "desired a/f ratio" and it will self tune to get within like 0.1 of the target af. It's got a lot going for it but the hefty price tag compared to other piggy backs is usually its downside and why others will go for MS2 and Bikirom type standalones first. Not many care about needing to pass emissions bc they are either pre 96 or their counties don't require it.

[babowc]

oooo..
neaatt.. it SELF tunes?
haha that is awesome.. how accurate is it though/what are the compatible WB02?

i think i'll be tuning mine with btm, safc and wbo2..
then down the road, maybe connect my lc1 with a laptop and start burning chips.. :/

although.. emanage ultimate and it's "autotune" sounds pretty neat!

[MrBojangles]

it's meant to be a tool for the self tuner to get a rough fuel map to start with.

compatible wb's i dunno, i'm pretty sure you just have to buy the wideband adapter harness and wire it to what ever you have installed on your car.
