280s are overkill for a stock turbo or else I would recommend those

I have to keep in mind I will only have five thousand to play with. So an FP Red, cams, valve train, and injectors will do me some justice. I have to shop smart, cause everyone knows how fast money can be spent. I just want to make sure I spend it right. Depending how much kid wants, and what the condition of the kit is in, I might buy his from him. Either way, I am trying to break 500 awhp.

Just pm him and ask how much he wants, kit doesn't have much mileage and I can vouch it's in great shape.

Holy snap crackle and pop PAT, nice graph man, "i can def see clearly now the tune is gone" Mellon did you in good man, With a FMIC and O2 housing upgrade I would say that 400whp has been achieved on that 16g. Well not to ruin your parade so soon but 400WHP+ will soon seem boring lol, I know you will want more after awhile.

Just want to say Congratulations on a good choice and I know your happy man. Now I will be having to catch you.

Kids turbo kit is a straight winner and def low miles on it. As for my X, fp red kelford b's with valvetrain upgrade and DW1000cc injectors and double pumper on e85 is where im going, Im shooting for 400whp mark.

Okay cool. I just wanna make sure I get good deals on all the parts I will be buying. Cause I dont know how much it will cost to have everything installed. Then my next worry is the clutch holding up which i know it wont.

Sounds like a good set up. I wont need the double pumper as of yet. I just wanna break the 500 awhp mark, which I know I will do with my set up and near by future mods. I would love to run E85, but I think I am going to hold off on that. I seen alot of issues with E85. So 93 pump for me will hold up fine. Current wheel hp is in my sig, and I think with a good set of cams/valve train, good injectors, bigger turbo and a new tune, I should break 500. We will see though.

If the clutch upgrade isnt the 1st thing on the list, I would even waste my money. If you are on a stock clutch your wasting your money on the cams and turbo upgrade to break 500.

Hmmm e85 isn't bad at all, it's more convenient to run 93 because of all the gas stations but I'll take the 106 octane instead.

Ya monkey is right , my stock clutch will die if I launch the car with almost 400 ft lbs I guarantee it. Before I get anymore power I will have a twin disk.

My friend said thanks for all the positive comments on the video. He is trying his best to get it done ASAP.

We are trying to do the next cruise/video on July 31 but we want to start at 0800 so we have all day to film. We can get breakfast and roll out, the next video will be even better.
