FINALLY GOT RESULTS- My Build project (Sort of build) Fp Red etc. Input Appreciated.
Ups delivered my red and feed line with inline filter today. Took Approximately 6 weeks. Also on order are some Kelford 272's and Comp Springs, PPI intake, and 950cc injectors which will be here soon. Car currently has:
IX Turbo w/Ported FP Hotside
AMS FMIC
BC 272's
Nisei LICP
Megan Racing TBE
IX DV
PPi Ported Manifold
eBay o2 Housing
KN Drop In Filter
Hallman Boost Controller (The New Version)
Prosport Boost Guage/oil pressure/egt
Walbro 255
Exedy Twin Hd
QTP cutout
Tuned By Tym Switzer in 2006 on a conservative 20psi and made 333whp/318wtq.
- I plan on only running 25-26 psi on 93 pump. I know im going to receive some hate but this is currently my daily driver and im not trying to break any records here. The car will be going back to Switzer for the next tune. I have also chosen to run the stock head bolts and if i run into problems the head will be pulled and arp's will be put in. When i get a beater more will be added but im just going to run this setup for the next year or so.
-If anybody has any recommendations for more/different parts and helpful information please chime in. As soon as i get the rest of my parts in it will be a few weeks till they are installed and tuned and i will definitely post my results.
Other parts i was thinking of scooping up were 65mm t/body and a ported Intake manifold. Im really only looking to make about 450whp possibly a little more, and yes i know i could have done this on my stock 9 turbo but i do plan on building the car in the future. Thanks alot, Daryl.
UPDATED WITH RESULTS
Got my car back and its a blast. E-85 is definitely next.
27psi, 93 pump
The car is totally different now, It feels like it takes a lot more to get it moving from a dead stop. Im not sure if its because i switched from the BC 272's to the Kelfords or what, but from 1,000-1,800ish rpm's it feels like its got nothing. Also if im decelerating in low rpms in 1st or 2nd gear the car sometimes bucks back and forth, im not sure if its because im running 850cc injectors on a stock ecu. Might be the plugs, i have no idea.

Yea i have been lurking around in your thread for some time, sorry to hear about that. I will be building the motor later down the road and im just going to have to pray that i dont blow a hole through my block. I have also decided that i am going to be installing head studs, i was quoted an extremely cheap price by a very reputable guy to pull my head and install them. I have not yet looked into ignition, i was unaware that i would need it in this setup, Thanks alot, Daryl.

880s will be fine if you don't plan to run E85. If you think you might want to, I would go with something bigger. The new BlueMax injectors seem to be pretty nice. You can get away with up to 1450s on pump gas with those, but 1250s would probably be enough to make you happy with the Red on E85.
