FP Green

Been looking at various Turbo upgrades, and one of them is goin for the FP Green.

At the moment I have the following mods fitted :

Tomei 270 Cams Inlet and Exhaust
Piper Uprated Valve Springs
Tomei Cam Gears
EVO400 3"Downpipe Elbow
Fujitsubo Cat Back Exhaust
DeCat Pipe
10.5T Turbo Housing
Walbro Fuel Pump
AMS Intercooler Hard Pipe Kit (standard Intercooler)
EVO400 Filter 4" Inlet
Apexi AVCR
Apexi Power FC D-Jero

(just for anyone who wants to know EVO400 products can be found herehttp://www.evo400.co.uk/

What other mods would I require, im thinking on just dropping in some pistons and rods just to be on the safe side
As the green seems to be used alot in the usa what other mods can I add to the car to get the most from the green Manifold?? etc etc

Alchy kit would make huge gains with the added airflow of the green. I believe there is around 40whp or more with an aclhy injection kit just on the stock turbo alone.

Of course it really depends on your local fuel and tuning capablities.

If you have a general knowledge of wiring electronics and some common sense, its pretty easy.

If money isn't an issue, test after test has shown that a full tube header has better spool and more hp up top.

Full race has proven to be one of the best designers of headers, looking at both their racing experience and the technology they use to build these products.

But there are dozens of headers out there, you just have to do the research and find your best fit.

Thats probobly because in the UK everyone has already tried everything else and figured out that Full Race is the best.

I love deductive reasoning.
