Most of that info is on their site. I think running 93 u can go down to a 2.8" pulley. As far as injectors, 60s will b more than sufficient for the stage kit. But if ur gonna go big build farther down the line then just get the 80s. R u gettin the s3 he, dual pass and option b? Highly recommend it

I was thinking about keeping mine pretty mild whenever I make the jump. The closest E85 station near me is 15 miles away so I'll just be running 93. I wanted to just go with a 2.9" pulley, 60# fuel injectors and the new ZZP heat exchanger.

dont buy a 3'' exhaust if you run only a 2.8 cause you lost power 100% sure you can stay with your stock one or 2.5'' afthermarket with a 2.8 pulley. buy a cold air intake with your stage 3 zzp if you think only run a 2.8 you can take a 60 injector, heat exchanger zzp, dual endplate etc.. and add a option B seriously. and afther go on dyno bellow 2.8 pulley is a + if you buy a meth kit

Just run a 2.8 just to be on the safe side like others have said. But if you wanna make some more power grab a meth kit since OTTP is having some great deals on their stuff and pulley down to a 2.6 pulley this usually help gain some great torque numbers too

Yeah just go ahead and get a header. I have the Badmab and I am amazed at the quality honestly and it makes the power and is dyno tested plenty of times. ZZPs stage kit just seems better pieced together and it all FITS. If you have any ?s about it dont be afraid to pm me

**** 15 miles is cake!!

If I had an E85 station that close, I would run it no questions asked.

Hell, I drive 50 miles a few times a year for race gas.

Get a Header and 2.5 catback if you plan on dropping down to a 2.8 pulley or lower. If the E85 station is on the way do the E85 option. What are your power goals? The m62 is good to about 260 ish on 93 gas and a bit higher on E85. If you want higher than that start looking at a TVS or Turbo. If you decide you want to go those routes buy mods that will build into that or you will end up wasting a lot of money in the end. Ask me why I know..
