Question New mods always make me happier

Right now I'm running around 350awhp/340awtq on a dynojet, 91oct, peaking 25psi holding 22psi. Well, it's time for some more toys now. I want to be safe on my next upgrade and make sure I replace any stock parts that need to be replaced because of the new power I will be making.

I'm planning on getting:
FP Red Turbo
Kelford stage 2 cams
FIC 1100cc
Fuel Pump (what are some good brands?)
Clutch/Flywheel (need advice here)
CMC
BOV (brands?)

Here are my current performance mods:
Apexi RS Catback
Perrin DP w/HFC
AMS Intake
Forge Wastegate Actuator
AEM Tru Boost
ETS 3.5" FMIC, UICP & LICP

I'm pretty sure I need to replace my stock connecting rods and center diff pins. Are there any other parts like that, that need to be replaced since I'll be making around 450awhp/awtq? Thanks for any advice/tips!

Fuel rail you won't need to worry about so much. It wouldn't hurt to do the fuel pump, and bov. If I were you I'd do the CMC and clutch/flywheel for preventitive measures. With your new power levels the clutch will more than likely go sooner rather than later. And with getting a new clutch I've seen most recommend a new CMC. Also, consider diff pins and then without question you'll be all set! Good luck with the build and keep us updated!

I hear ya on the clutch/flywheel and cmc. Those are practically a must. As far as the pins are concerned, do most clutch kits come with them or are they sold separately? Who sells them? And to be precise, are they considered the center differential pins? Thanks.

The Dominator doesn't seem to be a popular turbo upgrade. I seem to remember reading something about surging issues.

If you want spool, get a Green.. If you want peak power, get a Black (spools ~300 later than red with more power potential)

Thanks for the advice. Honestly, I had the 2.0 in mind cause that's what was out months ago and I just started thinking about finally doing something now. I did some research and I think I like what I see with the FP Green!

They are almost essentially a must lol. They are considered center diff pins, and I do believe they are sold seperately from most clutch kits. If I'm not mistaken Bushchur makes diff pins. Please someone correct me if I'm wrong. Hope this helps some.
