Evolvd -
I'm building my car for the Silver State Classic, which is a high speed highway race in Nevada. I will be maintaining speeds of 100-125 for around 90 constant miles. This is why I am looking for more top end, but not drag racing top end, if that makes sense. Also why I wanted to upgrade the valve train regardless, since i will be pushing it very hard around red line for an hour or more at a time.
This is also the reason for the thermostat, and eventually down the road like you said, a radiator and more efficient FMIC.
I know the UICP dont give a whole lot of gain, but a few years ago I bought the BR mini-battery kit for the purpose of running the UCIP. Like you say, even without much gain, going with metal vs plastic just seems like a good idea.
Thanks for the heads up on the tuning of the JUN's! I guess I'll look more towards a 280 like GSC or HKS. I'm really not looking to mod a whole lot to my current level, but to my desired level. Dont really want to buy a set of parts now, only to have to upgrade within a year to the more aggressive stuff.
As for the meth, I'm looking into either meth or E85.....this will just take some google time! Like Warr said earlier, even on the stock turbo with E85, I will need larger injectors. Again, planning for down the road, not the immediate. The car doesnt get driven a whole lot (16,500 on a 2004) so I'm not too worried about things not running quite right for the mean time until everything is completed.
A few other people have also suggested a good 50 trim turbo. Anyone have any suggestions for me to check out?
