I have decided to turbo my 03 Ap1 im going to list what i have coming to install into the car if anyone would like to shed some light what is still needed that would be awesome, also any other parts needed would be helpful as well Thanks. will be tuned on e85. i would like to keep the motor as stock as possible shooting for 450-500hp.


-Full Race Kit Gtx3076R
-Ap2 Retainers and keepers
-400Lph e85 walbro pump
-Aem Tru boost
-Aem Ugeo A/F
-Aem Ems V2
-ID1300
-Act HD PP Oem disk and Oem bearings

Thinking on installing a Oil cooler as well, I have about 4k left to spend on this build what should i use it for? Again thanks for your inputs

You may want a fuel pressure regulator to up psi when running e85 with 1300 injectors. If going to run only e85 I would get the ID 1700 injectors.

Some heat management like a vented hood, turbo blanket, coat the manifold and or wrap it. I personally like the atp inconel shielding.

 

I contacted evans tuning before I bought my 1300 he said that they are plenty for e85, might flex fuel but I have a e85 pump 2 miles from my house. I've seen some post on here people are getting over 500hp on stock Fpr and rail. Why would I need to get a adjustable Fpr for e85?

 

You can make more than 600hp with stock fpr and rail. My point is you have a kit and turbo that will make close to 600 whp at 20psi on E85. I had a Ptuning kit with same turbo.

Those 1300 injectors will be well over 90% duty cycle at that boost level, and that is not a good thing in my opinion. You say you want 500whp and you will get that easily at 14-15psi but why limit yourself. You will turn up the boost trust me.

The fpr will allow you to adjust pressure upwards say 55psi effectively making your 1300 bigger. I get why you want the 1300 because they are great injectors. I am at 80% duty cycle with 1300's at 16 psi on a supercharger with 55psi base pressure and 510 whp.

 

Having the capability of adjusting your static fuel pressure, even if its just 5-10 PSI higher than the standard static pressure, can make a world of difference in the duty cycle of your injectors and the fuel tables in your tune. Its a relatively inexpensive safety net in the case that you get on the dyno and realize your injectors are holding you back. And while every setup is different, my stock FPR was too restrictive for my fueling setup and caused my static pressure to be too high. I had to use the AEM FPR to lower my static pressure to get everything to jive correctly.

Edit - Also, I would take $2k of your remaining budget and put it aside for tuning. Spend more time on the street with your tuner than on the dyno. Getting a car to run straight 12 AFR during a pull isn't hard. Getting it to run like stock on the street is.

 

Your title says full race and thread says full blown, which are you getting?

 

That was my question when I was purchasing them. I was going to get 2000 but he assured me 1300 would be fine, guess we will see when tune time comes in the spring. Was your motor stock at 600hp?

This is a full Race kit not full blown

 

Looks like a Aem Fpr is needed just as incase "insurance policy " 2K will be saved for tuning. That's a different budget so total of 6k still. Just making sure I have all the basicsand mandatory parts. Thanks for all the reply s keep them coming!

 

Then I would revise your first post. You have full blown written down.
