I know...The car is quite impressive as it sits but I want a "complete package" without going too overboard and I think this will do it. Besides Some of my investments are going REAL sour so some of that $$$ that I am sure to lose to this lovely economy will go into my "happy Place"...the car.

Hey Josh do you carry T-bolt clamps?

t-bolt clamps yes i can get those

atleast you can drive around your losses and chalk it up to the fun board/mod list.

its like when i gamble on fights and lose...just leaves you feeling empty and punched in the gut...like someone stole your money.

Yah, after spending close to 1.5k on a FMIC, I was like hah, no t-bolt clamps! I knew it before I got the kit, but thanks to WolfPlayer, problem solved! Just trying to aid in the mod bug! T-Bolt clamps are monsters, soooo tight you don't even feel it when you tighten it down.

That list I gave you has the exact amount of clamps needed for the APS DR-525 or DR-725 FMIC, QTY is listed on the sheet as well.

So I am having some issues with making a damn decision on this turbo upgrade.

I do know I will be using a Blouch Dom 2.5R 8cm turbo.
I will be running my 50/50 meth all the time.

I am not sure if I should go with 750cc or 850cc injectors for a 47lb/min wheel...?

I am not sure if I should go EWG or not.

I am second guessing if I really do need to go FMIC and if I do does it have to be APS or will a Turbo XS do me fine.

I hopefully will be ordering this "stuff" this up coming wed. so we shall see...any input is appreciated...

Damn too many choices.

Joe

You should be fine with 750cc injectors. Guys with the Dominator 3 (52lbs/min) are running 740 or 750s. I'm a big fan of the top mount. In my opinion its part of what makes a Subaru, a Subaru ya know. I plan on getting as much as possible out of a top mount. I got an AMR TMIC with heat dispersant coating a few weeks ago--very nice piece.

You are losing the SPT intake for an APS cold air, correct? I'm thinking the Turbo XS front mount will only work with a short ram.

I would say EWG is not necessary for power but if you want your black b*tch to scream then get one and let it dump to atmosphere. Looking forward to seeing what you decide

Damn that new black/clear look is awesome!
Are there any turn signals on those new Lightwerkz tail lamps? Orange light?
