Finally, NEW PICS!!!
I finally got around to taking some pictures of my new turbo setup. This one cost a bit more than my old nikki setup, but it's well worth it.

Link to my cardomain site is in my sig, but this is just a copy of the first page on there, the rest of the pages are my old setup.
Here's the mod list, the suspension isn't on the car yet, but in a couple weeks it will be.

13x7 diamond racing wheels with yokohama DOT legal slicks

Jets and tubes aren't here yet, and there's no gurantee they will work. Should be here monday or tuesday and I'll try them the second they come. If the F2's dont work then I think I'll just use a huge jet and air bleed with the F11.

They look really close to the turbo in the pic, but those zip ties are actually far enough away that they don't get much heat. Near the turbo I used metal clamps just like the ones on the radiator hose and IC piping.

Yep, I made the manifold, hat, IC, exhaust, mounting brackets and throttle cable bracket, and lots of other small stuff. Most anything that I though I could make instead of buying it I did.

It really helped, when I checked the spark, spark on the leading plugs is much stronger than on the trailing. But the biggest difference in feel was getting a good cap and rotor. My old cap must have gotten hit when I was working on something else and was cocked to the side just enough for the rotor to hit it and knock off a couple of the contact points. I got a new cap and rotor and put on the MSD at the same time, so between those two things the ignition system is MUCH stronger than before.

Banned. I got OWNED!!!
well since your using the stock turbo the numbers wont be very impressive, what you need to make good power with a streetport is a upgraded turbo! the stock turbo wont make enough cfm's to feed the streetport with enough air....its upgrade time!!!
p.s. your leanout problem isnt the jetting, its a problem with fuel delivery
