New Evo Owner need help

I just got an 05 evo VIII and was looking at upgrades. I wanted to go for power straight off the bat and wanted to know what would get me my bang for my buck. I was told gsc s2 cams, walbro 255 fuel pump, boost controller, lower intercooler piping. I was wondering is there anything else that i should get...im trying to keep the stock turbo for now. And secondly if I decided to upgrade my turbo to a bigger/better one which should i go for? I heard the fp red or green would be a good upgrade. Im looking at pushing for 400+ maybe even 500. My base in WA is soon to get e85 so im going to be getting a kit for that. Thanks for the info and looking foward to serious suggestions

Mike

There is no "kit" for e85. All you need is a walbro and larger than stock injectors. But since you plan on upgrading cams in the first place and shooting for 400+ is going to be necessary anyway. You need to decide on the actual power goal you want because 400 and 500 is a huge difference. The stock turbo on e85 is a total blast and I couldn't imagine wanting to swap to a larger turbo.

Nice, what injectors did you buy? You don't want to get anything too small.
