What do I need to run a fp red?

Right now I have:

3" TBE cat delete
255 Fuel pump
Bushur intake
Aem tru boost controler





I'm ready to buy the turbo but I was told I would be stupid for doing this without having more mods. I just want to RUN 25-28PSI ON PUMP GAS.

The one thing I know for sure is injectors...But is there anyting else I would really need?

intercooler, injectors.

Personally I would do meth, race gas, or e85 with this turbo, cuz pump gas it won't be enough.

Upgrade your intercooler cause you will heat soak your stocker quick with a bigger turbo.

.....And also keep in my mind setting money aside for tune/reflash is always a good idea as well.... as for cams some 272s should do the job damn well for you....stock bov will work but wouldnt hurt getting a new one while your at it(well it might hurt your wallet a little........lol

The search button works fine. Search fpred. People run a fuel pump an injectors and a tune, that's the baseline.

Add fmic, cams, meth/e85 for more power.

no offense taken, but i would assume someone who has been a member since 2006 would have been around the block once or twice and had seen what is "typical" modifications before people upgrade turbos. intake, intercooler, cams, fuel pump, injectors, blah blah blah.

we all have the same stuff. so besides the "bolt ons" as pete said, youre gonna need patience

one thing's for sure, don't even attempt to run 25-28psi on pump gas, either get meth or e85 if you truely want to feel the potential for fp red
