Changed the fuel pump from a walbro 255 to an aeromotive stealth 340. Also added new oem fuel sending unit.

If you ever go with coilovers up front you will gain some tire space up front.
I made 17x9+24 wheels fit with 235/40/17 NT05s with stock style shocks (Tokico blues and RB springs) and got no rubbing. NT01s run wider though. My 255 NT01s were within 1/4 in of my friend's 275 NT05s. How do you like that Stu Kelly motor sports fuel hat? I'm still running the stock unit with my Walbro 255. |
Love the stu Kelly pump hanger. Seals really good.
On thing I could say that is wrong with it is the screws that come with it. They're painted black. This causes a problem with the fuel level sender. The sender uses the ground from these screws into the gas tank. I had no fuel gauge operation until I added a ground wire to the top of the hanger, and attached it to a clean spot near the spare tire well. That restored full fuel gauge operation. |
I guess I would still highly suggest at least running water injection. It doesn't cost all that much for a kit and it provides peace of mind, steam cleaning of carbon deposits, and cooling the air charge for more power. I certainly get a bit weary of average fuel quality here in the midwest. All it takes is 1 bad detonation moment to ruin your fun... It's pretty much universally suggested in the single turbo forum even if you aren't running crazy high boost levels.
LOF, are you running the Cobra R reps as well? Seems odd that we would have the exact same wheel specs otherwise haha |

We lose another one to the dark side... ha. What engine management are you switching to? EFI Source has some nice MS3 kits already wired for LS setups
|
Most likely gonna use the GM ecu.

It may be too late, but the Ronin kit is the better mount kit.
Nice pickup on the engine. Gonna run the auto trans or switch to manual? Just going to NOS it and go, or are you going to mod the engine at all? |
I wanna meet the guy that has to put this stuff into a shipping Envelope!..lol!
Personally I am done with the argument of what is better for the car. Doing whatever to the car to make power is the goal..and the car still is the OWNER's to do whatever he wants to it..so You Go man! Heh..I'm behind you 100%....Really..I'm behind you,look in your rear view..hahah! |

Planning on getting the ecu flashed, so if i can get any recommendations on a cam before hand they can tune me up for that.
