fp green suggestions:
To the OP:
1. Get some S1s. My review and latest results can be found by searching for my previous posts. BTW, I am selling mine because I am moving to a HTA 35R setup. PM me if you are interested.
2. 780s will be enough and the right size for the green! I have the latencies posted on the ECUFlash forum.
3. If you are going to run 24+ PSIs get a high pressure WGA. If not, stay with the stock one. Adjustable WGA need to have the right amount of preload or erratic boost may occur.
4. Get a Forge or Hallman as your MBC. I own an iColor because I change boost settings depending on the fuel I am using at the moment. Highly recommended!
5. Buy some head studs and get them installed @ 85 #s with the ARP lube. Tips: Heat cycle the car without going into extreme boost and then re TQ them when the car is completelly cold. Cycle TQ them at least five times.... Twice.... the first time during installation and after the heat cycle. First time, I remove the nut and re Tq to specs(one by one) three times. Second time after the heat cycle, I just re TQ them without removing the nuts.
6. Walbro 255 HP!
7. Get some IKH24 sparks and gap them @ .018 if running ~25 PSI.
8. Get an intercooler if you are going to run more than 22 PSI on the green.
9. Port manifold. Do not coat it.... you may experience some peeling and the engine bay will look nasty. PM Me if you want to see some pics.
Just my 0.02! Use them at your own risk!
