I'm getting a little worried about the base tune. It'll be months till I'm able to get to a tuner and I run this car as my DD.

You'll be fine with a base tune. Hell I don't think I ever got a proper tune on mine and it ran fine.....after I fixed all the other issues which had nothing to do with the tune.

wheee!

From the smile on Mitco's face last night when he pulled up in his Z, I think you can safely drive this base tune (with some restraint!) till you can get to a tuner!
The trick is, the restraint!

The car runs and drives fine, the only thing is it gets super rich under WOT (below 10:1 somewhere), so worst case you foul a set of plugs before you get it tuned.

Those plugs are like $100. If you do, I have a spare set of new ones (shameless plug) But it may be a few months unless GTM ships them out for me.

I actually still have my stockers in there right now, going to throw the GTR plugs in right before she goes on the Dyno.

wheee!

He's a subaru fanboi and caters to COBB tunes more than the UpRev platform. His tunes are just as expensive and produce less than optimal results. I'll leave it at that.....

What's the difference between a ball bearing turbo and a non ball bearing turbo?

Boosted Performance

Balls...

This is easier:

Ball Bearing vs. Journal Bearing

I have been working like a crazy man in my shop on my BP install, here’s an update.

I have had some time in between part shipments to work out some details on wideband and boost controller vacuum sources, also required is a vacuum source for the BOV. With those needs in mind I decided to install a vacuum header. I purchased the header here: Vac Header

I found a nice spot inside the brake/clutch fluid reservoir location to mount the manifold. I am also installing an AEM failsafe gauge (wideband/AFR) and an HKS type S boost controller, getting through the firewall at this location is not too bad, there is a large rubber wiring boot that allows access. I added a Z1 motor sports sticker I had laying around.

I have a ton more pics of all the install, it’s too much work right now to put together a build thread with all the work I have already done, that will come later.
