Changing out the starter shouldn't be too difficult. Jack it up pull it out put in the new one. But changing out the turbos ill need torque specs and any other help that may be offered. Not sure if I need to do anything special for that part of it. And lastly when I get another paycheck or two ill need info on what all else I need to support and fp green. All I know is walbro 255 and some injectors.

they should fit a stock rail. you will probably need a o-ring/seal kit for them if you get them. I know when i sold mine they needed it. FIC makes good injectors, thats what i run of course much bigger.

Great news coming home on sunday or monday, will be able to make the sage meet if i can drive the car.

Does not sound like me. I do have a rexpeed lip. On the outside it is pretty stock appearing except for the intercooler and lip.

Should be about 8k miles on them. They worked fine when I pulled them off, I switched to 1050s soon after I upgraded to the 6262. As Driven said yes they fit the stock rail, and I would recommend getting new ring/seal kit as well.

shrtstuff, if you don't mind me asking, are you building the car for a specific purpose. Are you specifically trying to build a track/autocross car, or is this just your DD/street car that might see a track or drag strip from time to time? I am just asking cause if you already have a built motor, are you sure down the road you are not going to want more power then the Green can give you? I know for me I continued to want more power, went from a 8 turbo > 9 turbo > 50-trim > 6262. I guess make sure Green is what you want, especially since FP offers other options like the Red and Black.

I think that guy lives up off of Centerville pkwy somewhere, cause when I use to live over there I would see that car all the time, did it have the chrome lookin UK badging too? and I don't think he is one here, cause I have spotted him a few times and posted it on here, but he hasn't spoken up or anything.

For my car its going to be a DD with a lil extra summin summin. I myself didn't plan on a 2.3 the shop suggested it for more reliability more power etc. So I figured why not. It will eventually see a track o see what it can do but def not autoX or pure race car.

But yah I figured I'd get the turbo first so I can go ahead and get it paid for. No going to install it til I get the pump and injectors. Then install all that when I can make time to drive somewhere for the tune.
