if u r goin to get a RFS, get it now. U have to get a entire new tune when thats added, ie another 500+$ to Sharif.

Realistically, u dont need it though with a walbro and big injectors.

Fo Shizzle!! I was perfectly happy with my TN single setup until I took a single short ride in jtgli's Greddy TT with open dumps.....then it was on like Donkey Kong and now my wallet is $30K light .

Be warned, when people say boost is like crack, they are not kidding!!!

Plan to install just a vortech myself, and run N/A belt setup untill i get to forged. So if i need to install RFS, it will be at same time with tunning.

How big injectors are you talking about? i'm thinking to run 550, isn't big enough tho?

for your setup u can get away with not having a rfs. U just need bigger injectors (+550cc) and a walbro intank. I would at least get an oil cooler especially in the TX humid climates.
