i was told that 780s would be able to flow enough for a gt35.. i dont see why 880s are necessary for a smaller turbo? but i need to find someone whos running a red on pump without meth or e85.. i went green and i need some motivation (ie. get beat) so i can swap in a red and port the intake mani with a larger TB, really the last things i can possibly do before i build the car

Really the forge RS isn't holding well at 29psi?? Test pipe is def the way to go. I got the AMS resonated test pipe and I love it!

The Rs would flutter badly the entire 3k on the tach. We tried adjusting it and it did not change anything. This caused my power to dip until 4k and then it would steadily climb.

i have 1000's ready for the red install. i'm only tuning for pump gas and am not going meth or anything else down the road, for now. might be overkill, but should work fine. i think 880's would be good enough for you.
