74fsp should I???

Alright guys doing some big changes to car getting ready for Wannagofast in Sept.
Mods:
Kleemans, Fabberge exhaust, 85mm throttle body, ASP pulleys, beast tubes, looped rail, 550cc injectors, FAbtech heat exchanger, trans cooler, 3k stall, tcu tune, K&N's and split coolant.

This week have a 5 gallon trunk tank and Meziere pump going in.

Next week doing Devils Own meth kit.

Should I swap out my 77fsp for a 74fsp or not????
Any opinions welcome.
Thanks

Go for it you'll have the cooling to support it. Curious how the fsp is performing for you without the belt wrap kit?

I would have chosen the Aquamist over the Devils Own, but of course I am biased.

Dont mind me asking but why biased? I really like the Aquamist but the shop tuning it uses Devils Own. Rather have them use what they know how too.

85mm throttle body??? What kind is it?

You should be good to go on the 74mm. your cooling system will be close to mine (minus the modified intercooler) and I am running the 77mm FSP with a 175mm crank pulley.

MB throttle body bored to 85mm. Got it off guy on the forums for a rediculous price. Only problem with it is outer ring has come loose. When taking intake off it stays in y-pipe. Gonna have it Tac welded when I install methanol.

Because I chose the AQ over the DO based on its controller and failsafes.

We can do a custom dyno tune or we can ship our SMS port which can hold up to 10 tunes and flashed directly via the OBD Port
