Hi 330awhp,

What are your goals for modding?
Essentially you are getting the front mount and injectors with both set ups and th main difference is larger turbo (FP Red) or Camshafts.

You will need to fuel pump with the FP Red.

Because you said FP Red I will assume you are looking for high HP. In this case I would go BT(bigger turbo) and if you have the money install the cams in at the same time.
While the cams are a decent mod, I feel they would benefit more from a BT. Thus I would not worry about putting the camshafts on now. i would do it when upgrading turbo.

If you could provide more information we can give you a more specific answer

Also If you put the cams in first you will have to tune, and then when you but the FP Red in you will have to tune again. Vs going FP red and cams at same time then do one tune. Saves some $.

my $.02

I am pro stock cams and stock appearing turbo like your second choice. I vote for the Red, you'll get much more power returns for your money.

If you get the turbo be sure to also buy a fuel pump to go with those injectors.

Looks like you're relatively close to a great tuner in PA...maybe give the BBX a shot?
