definetly dont go with Tial if your talking cheap, BOV and WG will be about 400.00 then, Fro BOV go Bosch. Wastegate, do a search on ebay you will find some cheap ones but dont go with ssautochrome, they sell shit from what I hear. For the mass air meter, you have C&L or Pro-M. Pro-M went out of business but the employees from the original ProM bought the company and are planning to reopen, actully they already have, selected dealers are taking orders now. I would only go with 2.5-3.0" piping.

so a 3.0 piping would be adequate?


is aluminum a neccesity?

I was thinkin of using somethin a bit cheaper...


what size injectors would you recommend for a single set up with power goals of only 400rwhp?


what size intank fuel pump?


what size MAF?

remember I'm a noob

Screw that!, Go w/ the Aermotive A1000 fuel sys, that is what I did and it worked great..... fuel lines look like garden hoses

Yeah but remember he said he is going with cheaper parts....the 255 intank and 42lb injectors will be more than adequate for your hp level.
