Also check out the fuel rail mods I've done upgrading the link between the 2 rails, part comes out of the US, fits a GTO from memory. You'll also need a decent fuel pressure reg, oh and a decent boost controller. There's another 5-600. Take that price list you've got above & double it!
yeah seen your fuel rail mods was thinking of doing that as well and forgot about the boost controller lol and yeah I factored in the fuel pressure reg in to the fuel pump price. You reckon I can run 12psi on stock internals? :o

Yeah that's the one. You should also order a 3rd rail adaptor as well, because when you remove the stock pressure reg off the front rail, it just leaves a gaping hole, you use the extra adaptor to plug in there & run the fuel return line off it.

And yeah, bloke that tunes my cars has done a few turbo FTO's (non club guys), got most of them running 10 pound reliably, one guy went to 12 with no issues.

Sweet I'll order that and the other rail adapter aswell
What fuel pump do you recommend? Bosch or walbro? And where about's did you mount yours? In the tank or external?
Ah okay I'll see what I can run on this setup safely hopefully around that :)

You can mount the reg wherever you like really. Mines mounted to the passenger side strut tower.

Plenty of people sell Mitsi adaptors, it's the same adaptor used on the 4G63, so pretty common.

Was just mentioning the other one as it saves having to run an additional fuel line, the regulator mounts directly to the fuel rail.

Yeah biggest mistake I've ever made lol, instantly lost 5k but ah well it was good to learn how to build a car ground up pretty much. And something always to do which is good
Part of the reason I bought the turbo kit as well
