new summer new turbo

finally after months of search i decided on my new turbo.

my current setup
fpblack
aquamist
drop in wesco, tt rods
kelford 272, springs, retainers
ported imtake and exhaust
SD
double pumper
3.5 fmic
950cc
ets lower and upper
tial bov to atmosphere
hks vpro
ti-c, catless
twin clutch
and other stuff
i made 542whp on a DJ

sending out the fpblack to owen for bb conversion, another summer not this one.

this will be officially the 4th turbo on my car, stock 8 turbo, fpred, fpblack, now im going with the HKS 7460R, including bigger injectors, e85 tune and maybe e85 with meth (dont know if the meth will happen)

hopefully i get her back later this week for results and initial impression, im guessing immediate tq

Spoke to shop, everything installed waiting for tune and dyno numbers. Picking her up mid next week. Got 6 jugs of e85 because I'm guessing gonna have ****ty gas mileage, but alot of fun.
Didn't drive her since September of last year so I can't wait.

E85 is the only way to go....you will never go back to 93, especially on that setup!

Slowly build it, you won't feel it in the pocket that way.

Do you mind if I ask why? You've mentioned rarely driving the car, almost never exceeding 3K when you do. You've also mentioned how less reliable it's been since the mods. So, all this is being done to what end?
