smarty-tst stack

what are the minimum mods required to run a smarty-tst twins stack on an 2002 5 speed, I think that would be a standard output, for towing and occasional drag racing?

many thanks

Wouldn't the turbo be optional cuz he can always turn the tst down/off?

The turbo probably isn't mandatory, but why do the stack if you can't use it? Fuel is great but without a good turbo you can watch it all exit the tailpipe.

None... other than gauges! But you would have to turn the TST down till you could do the others mentioned. Something to look forward to

With TST on full, your clutch will complain and your Pyrometer will peg!

I would add a big line kit now.... won't need the upgrade on the fuel pump till over 475 hp (if you have to big line kit).
Later will need turbo & clutch.

Because Turbo WITHOUT the fuel is no fun! .... and most have to build hp a few dollars at a time.

I started with TST, and than a EZ/TST stack (before Smarty was on the market)..... and that was with an HY-35 turbo. Many don't realize the TST was originally designed for stock injectors and stock turbo. Thank God we are way past those days when we lived with lots of smoke and 400 hp was the cutting edge.... and a very big deal!
