Forged internals for FI

[35th-ANV-SS]

Any idea on when you'll be out to tune cars for Nick?

Nate?

It's looking like Late Feb/early March and again some time in June right now.

[35th-ANV-SS]

Yes, Nate.

OK so I'm just doing some fine tuning now on all the odd and end pieces here.

Have most of you with an aftermarket fuel pump dropped the tank to install or went the window access route?

Personally I dislike that race bypass valve to be honest... It's WAY loud during easy driving when it's open. Sounds like a giant air leak. The Aster tensioner is nice, but like the FMIC, if you aren't planning on using this stuff later on a forged motor, it's probably not a necessity. As boost goes up on a built motor, both of those items have their places. If you like the twin gauge pods better than the triple, the wideband and the boost gauge have you covered.

They have both an "open" race valve and a "closed" race valve. I was trying to find the difference and some information about them, and I did, but it wasn't much.

I've read over on Tech exactly what you have stated about the "open" one being loud. I assumed the closed one was a bit quieter.

Have never seen the closed one (not ATI's version) but trust me, that's what you want! It will be a lot more quiet too, not a bit.

OK thanks for the feedback. I do have the enclosed one picked out with the aluminum flange.

I know we can't link to non-sponsors, but here is the link without the "http" in front...

How many recommend a valve spring and push rod upgrade with this as well?
