Is that just because it is easier / better for hooking up the Return Line kit?

If needed I will spend the extra $150 to get the boomba ruel rail.

Well, it has the shrader valve at the end, which is nice for hooking up pressure gauges or fuel returns. Personally, my return is hooked up before the rail, which many think is the dumb way to do it, but it works at least to my power level very well and is clean and simple.

Ok, that is the way I would have to hook it up too. I'm waiting to hear back from MAP on an official quote for all the parts. Then I'll decide if I want to spend the extra money on the fuel rail. (I know they are cheap, and I will get one eventually)

Like the boost box. Hands down best boost controller. Do you have a diablo product? My turbo is .63 ar housing. Mines a bit bigger than the 5431 so I have some lag down low but up top it pulls like a freight train. My car has way more street manners now. Seems to me the drive ability is a lot better. Mileage on a big turbo sucks if you don't stay out if boost. I get like 165-180 miles depending if I boost a lot or not. You will also need a tune. From duster360 or turbo666 mindmelt or link low. Who ever you choose. I personally use duster and he knows his stuff.

nah they don't sell it with the turbonetics gate anymore. They send you their gate which looks ebayish (tial knockoffish) but I haven't seen anyone have problems with it really

sounds good. although i have a shop less than 20 min from me that builds turbos, thats all they do. im tempted to drop my manifold and turbo off for a custom bws and purchase injectors/tune from duster. im not cheap im just cost effective.

Check this place out, I think you can save some money buying this and still getting your power needs in
Hahn Racecraft - Automotive Turbosystems

Also, you don't need that six puck if you're going to be limited by the engine itself. Our engines can only handle around 425 whp max. Some people go over, but without a rebuild, it's a gamble.
I would recommend these clutches, they are not any stiffer than stock, but they have incredible hold and have intermediate torque levels.
For example, the spec clutch stage 2+ holds 450 lb ft of torque and is sub $500s. It is a crazy deal. Also it comes with a flywheel since it is a modular clutch. Also no chatter like with the ACTs.

03-05 SRT-4 SPEC Staged Clutch & Flywheel Kits: JSC Speed

But what are your goals? Just fast drag car or autocross or just an awesome car?

Skip the SPEC Clutch. They are known to fail on our platform. You should probably do some research yourself before giving anyone advise

My goals for the car is to have a reliable, and all around fun car that I can use as a daily driver and take to the track a couple times a year.
