I would recommend a better clutch if you are still rolling on your stock one....look into ACT or ClutchMaster's for your ride.

No, as long as your gears are currently smooth, then a new tranny is definitely not needed.

Only if you want, relocating it isnt hard at all if you do choose to.

Don't forget to upgrade your injectors, based on your turbo setup will determine what size injectors you will need...You will probably use anything from 310-450...You will also need to upgrade your fuel pump....the Warlboro 255lph is most common in this case.

Make sure you have it tuned properly and it will be safe.....this is assuming your compression in your motor is alright...if your not sure, have it compression tested to make sure all cylinders are up to par for this sort of power.

 

is a fuel pump upgrade recommended or neccesary???

 

I am gonna go ahead and say definitely do it....it will only run you about $100 for the Warlboro I meantioned.

Its a reccomendation everyone around here seems to grasp heavily onto. I am running my stock fuel pump with 0 issues.

 

i upgraded to a 99 Si fuel pump which is a little larger

If you think so... Its already been proven the Type R flows as much as a stock CX pump... so......
