^ A fuel pump is (IMHO) necesary seeing as a walbro is only 90 - 100 dollars and cams are 500-560 for HKS's...why the hell not? More air needs more fuel, whether its dangerous or not doesn't matter but i like running 21 PSI with HKS 280 cams.

You shouldnt need injectors, and fuel pump unless you get over 400 HP or a bigger turbo

Thumbs up

i would HIGHLY recommend ARP head bolts. the head will stretch the stock bolts if you rev over 7850. for safety reasons AND reliability, i say get the cam gears, lifters, & retainers. a 1.2mm head gasket wouldn't hurt either.

That's 360whp or so... on 93 octane.
No Way.. you are going to need more than that to get 360WHP

IMHO, the fuel pump is needed (along with a reflash, etc) as soon as you turn the boost up on an Evo...even without cams

injectors become necessary depending on the exact setup of the car, and the cam choice. Most of our customers who do cams and run 21-22 end up with at least a 660 injector
