I'm curious why you went Stage 1's? I've been thinking about getting a F6, this might push it thru. How many miles did your trans have before it went down? I want to do a IC & TC too, trying to figure in what order I can make individual purchases. Thanks.

I'm torn between Stage 2's and Hybrids. The .pdf has me a little concerned about losing IP from 21K down to 15K lbs....but on the flip side I don't wanna taxi my HPOP or replace either. I only have 77K miles on her

Will I have to get new tunes with either injectors(running a Diablo)? Since Hybrids have less IP, are they quieter?

BTW...I could only see 238cc FFD Hybrids on RRDP...was thinking more about the 200cc Hybrids level or the 165cc Stage2. Is there a happy medium???
Give me a call and we can talk about your specific needs. We do any size you want but if you are spending the money go for the 238cc.

Remember that the HPOP is a constant volume pump so you can't "over tax" it. Let me know if you have any questions

Hum, why did I go with stage 1's? Well I guess there were a few reasons. First off I new I needed new injectors. Second I did not want stock. Third I was planning on using my stock turbo for a while. Then it took a crap like a week after I came to a decision. Forth I had done a compression test and had some not so good results and did not want to blow it up a week after I installed em. And lastly I wanted to save as much time and money for when my tranny decided to go south. Well that backfired and 2 months later I need a tranny. To do it again with a good motor "pmr's would just ease my mind",a good tranny, and a upgraded turbo. I'd go for 238 hybrids. Why? Why not! It's only a lil more money and a whole lot more power. If you read this whole thread and all there input it is what has now lead me to this thinking. If Anyone's comments peak intrest, pm them or post it up. They'll be glad to to help. Awesome people around here!
