Hey guys,
Ive been talking with this guy at a local shop and he is very very good, and i think he has covered everything but i was just wondering what your opinions are and problems i could run into with this set up.

A Large front mount intercooler, a vortech supercharger unit w/ pulley set at 6-7 psi, custom piping, a vortech fmu along with an apex SAFC II for fine tuning, new ignition system, 525 cc injectors, trial header, and tsrm exhaust system.

Is this a good set up? and do i need anything else?
thanks for your help

Change the SAFC to the Power FC.

would an HKS twin power ignition system work? shouldn't you have a custom exhaust since you're boosting?

With FI, 3" piping is recommended.

i think the hks twin power direct fire ignition system is what we are going to use, and that should be more than fine, as for the exhaust, i was unaware that i needed a custom exhaust, do i really need it compared to the tsrm or is it just recomended?

like they said, you need a bigger piping for forced inductions

ok, so custom exhaust, now how about the ecu, ive been hearing absolutely no safc II because it resets itself? is this always the case? or have some people had success with it. And also, would the greddy emanage work then?
