ok i know that you should replace the FPR with a better one which one i don't know. maybe if some of the turbo guys reply we can put this in the seen this before section and that way anyone lookin to get a kit knows what to replace before installin the kit my two cents. later "Z" allmost complete with the eight injector set-up guys. should see boost by mid october.

no need to replace the fmu, it works quite well... unless you wish to be able to tune your fuel settings quickly then you may get the sfmu. by far the most important thing to do before you boost is a compression test (make sure everything is working properly in there). a/f, egt and boost gauges are a must. You may also wish to get a fuel pressure gauge. and to run 8-9 psi you will need a boost controler, to run that psi safely with absolutely no worries get your bottom end re-built.
