You are gonna turn the base fuel pressure from 43.5psi to 60psi? This means if you plan on running 15psi of boost, you would need 75psi of fuel pressure... seems high to me.

I'd ditch the 50# and get 60# or 65#'s. Depending on the rest of your setup, you may need bigger than 65#'s if you want to make big power.

Very nice. You will love this blower. You'll see an increase in torque and horsepower across the band even at the same boost level. Many CFM's.

I went from a d1sc and the F1A has good low end boost..little noisy, people that dont know anything about cars know its blown. Not a sleeper blower!

You'll need to grind this here. You may also have to grind down your ABS bracket too, some do some don't. I didn't but I did it anyways just to be sure. Have fun w/ it. You are going to notice a BIG difference. I'd step up those inj's to to at least 60's.
