If you know nothing about tuning, the purchase of a wideband and SAFC will be just a couple shiny lights for you. Not being rude, but your setup is ghetto. What is the point in installing all these parts when you don't tune. IMO, you took a step back from your NA KA rather than improving it. Also get a Walbro fuel pump, even on a basic setup.

Im running 10PSI on my car.
I do plan on getting it dyno tuned. I know the owner of the shop pretty well and could get a decent deal. I plan on getting some type of tuned ECU. Are enthalpys good? I know a guy selling one thats tuned for his t3/4 but he claims it will work for t25/370cc injectors/n60 maf. I can get a deal on it so let me know

and i agree with you I took a step back from NA but all i'm waiting on is ultimately a tune.

I'm friends with the guy i bought my turbo kit from. It's in great condition, none of the parts have been necessarily "beat on". i.e. the turbo was never run more than 10psi, no shaft play. I agree new parts are better than old ones, theres no doubt about that.
