What else do I need to install this FP red?

If I buy this turbo http://store.forcedperformance.net/m...de=BlackFriday , what else is needed to install it? It looks like it's set up to use an external wastegate and the O2 housing I have wont work with it either. Do I need an Evo 9 into evo 8 install kit and also a different intake pipe or would my stock one work? I have all the supporting mods... Thanks.

STM makes a downpipe for it. You'll need and intake to fit the 3.5" compressor inlet, and the evo 9 turbo install kit for evo 8.

You will need the external wastegate, a downpipe that works with their new housing or FP's new 02 housing option, Evo IX oil and coolant lines, Evo IX J-pipe, and you will need a 3.25" intake.

Awesome, thanks guys! Also, I plan on staying on 93 octane for now, does this turbo require speed density due to stock MAF being unable to keep up or would I not be outflowing that yet on pump gas?

You do not need SD to run a FP Red, a MAF will work just fine.

It will drive better on SD (nothing to do with the turbo, Evo's just drive more smoothly with an SD conversion), but MAF will be fine.

I would get this...
