Upgrading to FP Red tips.

Hey guys, I've got an 2.3L Evo 7 Stroker and was wondering what I should also add alongside the upgrade to an FP red, I'll attach a photo with what's currently on the car. The car's making a steady 300kw on E85 and I'm gonna add in a Link G4+.



Thanks! <3

Given that you are running a stoker, I'd be tempted to go to an FP black honestly.

That said, I have a similar setup to you but on a 2.0 with a red and its great. I don't see anything missing in your mod list that I would upgrade outside of maybe the clutch when it gives up. That Exedy is going to be feeling the pressure at the power levels you can get to on the red. I ended up going from an ACT HDSS to an Exedy twin.

Do you have any head work done? Porting? Bigger valves? I'm unfamiliar with those cams, but they might need springs.
Stock intake? Is your intake ported?
Stock throttle body? Is it ported? I would recommend also doing the valve seals as well.
Stock exhaust manifold? Is it ported?

ooo the springs are a good question. I missed those.
Also replacing the throttle body seals would be a good idea if they haven't been.

I didn't port anything on my setup. This is a highly use case specific thing. Porting will make more power at the top at the expense of spool in my understanding.
