I'm getting TSM 340 LPH pump and TSM 1150cc injectors, since I'm getting everything done at Topspeed Motorsports. I was going to go with AEM 320-E85 or Aeromotive 340, but I'll let you guys know how their products turn out.

Aren't you getting a Cavalli stg 3? What's the flow rate on that turbo? If it's equal to an FP Black, you might want to go w/ 1300s, especially w/ E85. I think DW1300s are much cheaper than ID1300s tho. As far as I know, you don't want to max out your FI and pump duty. Can anyone else input further?

Yes I am going with the Cavalli Stage 3, they told me 1000 injectors if I do pump gas and meth or 1300 if I do E85. Would it hurt to just get the 1300's either way? I would rather be safe then sorry and this is not my expertise. And who is "DW" (brand)? Thank you for your help

A few items. You seem to be jumping from turbo to turbo. Pick a HP goal THEN pick the turbo. If 500 is the number, great het a GTX 3576. BUT remember 500 is a big number on a stocker. If you are this fickle now, you should consider an EFR turbo. You will be bored with 450ish at the wheels in 3 weeks. You have the motivation and cash, do it right now. A retune is far easier than swapping parts.

If you were more settled, I would suggest a stock frame like CBRD. Remember Gates was killing on a stock motor...or at least under 600HP. He is faster than 99% of this board on 400HP.... with a passenger, albeit a horse head...lol You have to remember balance. HP is great, but it can also make you a statistic.(crashes) Aero...weight...tuning...and MOST of all driver aptitude is huge with speed and driving.

400HP and a weekend with a good instructor, will make you far faster, and safer than 90% of this board. Plus you can save money on the engine rebuild.

Best of luck!

Yea that was my problem at first. I wanted a turbo to match my DD needs but still get a nice boost in HP. But then I decided that I wanted the happy medium of getting a good deal of power out of stock block with good spool for DD, but still leave some headroom for future upgrades. I also decided to stay with 93 instead of a 93/E85 tune, so I needed a larger stock frame turbo to make up for not having E85. But you are right, the driver mod is the best bet. Thanks!

I'm running a EFR 7670 turbo kit putting down 490 awhp/ 378 lb torque on a stock block. Pretty much feels like a stock turbo, no lag and boost kicks in becomes a beast.
