I was thinking of going with a set of Mach 6's and a Pro Street 66 for my DD. My questions are, would my FASS 95 be enough for those injectors and my Edge Comp? Also, would I be able to get by with a set of ARP headstuds and a stock gasket? I've heard that the stock gasket with the ARP studs is good upto 65 psi, and I was planning on putting more than 60 psi max to it. Thanks for any help, guy's.

 

No the stock gasket will not hold ! You may last a few days but it not very long! Its more to do with the heat! The Fass 95 will supply it , i would recomend a 150 , they do a little better job keeping good flow and good pres!
But i would ring and stud first! JMO

 

me too!

 

I was just going off what one of the websites (I think either Piers or ATS) was saying about the headgasket. I don't plan on going over 60 psi at all and they were saying that a stock gasket and aftermarket studs would be good for upto 65 psi, so I didn't think the O-rings would be immediately nessesary. I was thinking a set of studs and a marine gaskest till i can work up the money for a full Stage 2 head job from Piers.

 

where are you out of? If your in Korea thats a heck of a shipping charge!
I belive that 65 lbs with studs is guess work , most likely the highest one with just studs has ever held, in reality its only a mater of time, it will go just when! Why not just ring it and not have to spend your time on a cleanup job! Its not going to be much more expensive besides taking the head off and finding a shop to ring it!

 

if you want a stage 2 head from peirs, you might as well just turn your boost down a wait. Save your $$$ so you dont have to do it twice

 

I agree! Its not worth pulling the head twice!

 

FASS 95? Model 95 or Model 150 w/ 95 gph? Either way, IMO, a 95 GPH pump can handle any HP a CTD can throw at it.
Your head gasket can not and won't be happy with the set up you mention!

60+ psi from any single turbo is probably more expansion pressure from excessive heat... than cool compressed air. I've been told the PS66 is not a desirable street turbo... you might ask around.

i run the sps 66 . I forgot to mention i run the 150 /95 and the 150 and both do well! The sps 66 is a daily driver once you get used to it, i can drive without smoke! but its headgasket required!

 

They come wastegated correct? What's the factory setting.... around 40 psi?

but do you?

 

You betcha... at least out of my parking lot The rest of the time smarty lvl 8 5x4 on the comp im GETTTINR DONE

When are we gonna get the cool little redneck git~r~done smileys?!?!?!?!?

 

IIRC...HTT gates them at 45 or so from the factory.

 

The Pro Street is suppose to run 1:1 at 45 psi, so I was thinking about keeping it right there till I can get the head work done. 45 psi should last a while on a stock motor, just make sure I retorque the head studs.

 

I'm just in Korea till, July. Then hopefully I'll go back to Texas, which is where I was for the first 3 1/2 yrs. I'm originally from Alabama though. Been moved around quite abit thanks to the Army.
