Re: New to turbo
Things you must state. A lazy question, gets you a lazy answer ;-)
-RC injector size
-Rods ( a rod "Kit" doesn't help anybody)
-I "Think" 57 trim doesn't do a thing. measure the wheels to be sure what it is before asking that. No one is oing to guess power or even close to it unless you start being more specific.
-PSI means nothing if no hp goal is listed.

He means the FJT long rods. Frankly, I like a 7.5:1 CR D16 as they are something a 9:1 turbo D16 isn't: they are NOT VOLATILE. There's a reason why a crummy cast china piston has resulted in more 400+ whp D16 builds within the last few years than there've been 400+ whp builds using any other piston.
Also, OP, add a cam gear to your list as you typically need to retard a stock cam and you should never trust a billet grind to be timed correctly (even if the manufacturer says to start tuning from the stock setting). Don't get a cheap or 3-4 bolt gear, either. I've not dealt with as many SOHC gears as I have B-series so I am likely overlooking a lot of good brands, but the Skunk2 gear is what I'd recommend. I have one on my DD.
