I like the EF2 more than the green and I feel like that might be a tad small for my motor. I think that is a great 2.0L turbo though.

I am leaning heavily towards the FPred and shoot for 500whp or so.

Good luck.
Yea, I like the red.

I am price checking the AMS 750xp kit with the 5858 and keep a .63 A/R on there, but I will be tempted to move way up again if I get that. The FPred will outspool that by a good 500 rpms I think.

I like the idea of not needing to rev my motor out to 9000 rpms I guess, 8200 or so seems like a good target rev.
