Edit: Also upgrade your wastegate to an FP 18psi wastegate.
hey do the m2 cams require upgraded valvetrain to run them ? also will the stock bov hold that much power or will i need to upgrade?

Forget about the Megan crap. It'll work for a while... but they'll crack eventually. To reach your goal, you'll probably want to add water or meth injection. Upgrading to a larger intercooler would help also.

Only if you want to rev higher then 7800rpms. The stock bov is good up to 25psi then it starts leaking. I have a forged RS bov. It holds boost great but highway part throttle is sacrificed in 4th and 5th gear a little due to the bov fluttering. You'd get used to it though, I did.

With the proper parts and tuner it's pretty much guarantee'd. Besides nothing thats worth doing is easy.

oh ok i read the basic info on the m2 cams on lancer shop and they said they could be used on stock valvetrain if keeping factory rev limit , just wanted to make sure they could take 7800 ok before purchasing them , gonna try and retain the factory bov for as long as i can but if I must ill get one i can recirculate. will the factory one need to be crushed at all?

It can be. Ive heard of someone holding a little more boost with a crushed one but in the end you are better off upgrading to something like a forged so there's no boost leak with high boost. The forge is a recirculated bov.

definitely attainable on a dynojet but u would need an alchy or meth injection plus all the usual bolt-ons. S1 should be good enough for you target hp. of course all the mods would be useless with out a good tune. either way good luck upgrading.

Stock injectors are fine, just upgrade the fuel pump since it's cheap. Im running 30psi with 100%meth on the stock fuel pump but I don't have cams yet either so...like I said it's cheap so upgrade to the walboro.

Depending on the brand, yes it is supposed to be pretty much a 50/50 mix. Or you can purchase 100% meth and distilled water to make your own mix. Personally i'd feel more comfortable mixing it myself to insure there are no contaminants.
