The stock 19 lb. injectors are fine as long as you run the FMU provided in the kit. Most S-trim kits come with an inline t-Rex fuel pump, but if you buy a used kit and the pump is not included you can replace your intank pump with a walbro 255 lph pump (I believe it's a 255, can't remember) and you will be fine. I would recommend upgrading your stock pump regardless.

I don't recommend spending money on an entry level A-trim kit, for a few bucks more you can get the S-trim and have much more room to grow in the future

if i can find a good deal on one i would definitely get an S-trim, but i'm really only doing this as a cheap way to temporarily quench my thirst for speed while i work on the new motor, so i dont want to dump a bunch of money in it

I know exactly what you mean, been there haha. If you do go with an A-trim, look into a UPR power pipe. They are made from plastic and will not heat soak. Also pick up a 73mm c&l mass air meter. You'll gain a few psi with those mods alone. Not sure if you have headers, but headers are a must when running a blower.

i just got off the phone with vortech i think im going to get one of their entry level SCi kits. i already have a walbro 255lph fuel pump so they were saying with a couple sizes smaller pulley and a bypass valve (totalling only like $150) it'll bump it up another 1.5-2psi

Find a nice set of edelbrock Vic juniors and a hi tech cam and a Holley system max II intake 65mm to 70 mm tb and a nice 76mm pro m maf or sct maf oh and don't forget to get some 24lb injectors and upgrade that fuel pump to a 255 lb intake pump should be well under budget and don't forget to measure for some comp cam push rods for the new cam and 1.6 rockers and heads [ 2015-02-03, 10:51 AM: Message edited by: 50Reasons ]
