Default My project - What power guys?

Hi guys, galls,This is my project i will be fitting in the next couple of weeks. What i want to know is what ppl recommend - pressure and anythin that may need changing from the list below. I have most parts now needed and can start the conversion anytime soon. Have been told it will run better on greys but have already got greens.

My car is a small turbo ecos. Currently fitted is a full blue flame exhaust and twin piston dump valve with a modified saph pace rs500 style intercooler.

I will be fitting - t34 turbo with .63 housing, walbro fuel pump (hotwired) 'greens' complete brand new engine loom, group a headgasket and all new inlet exhaust gaskets etc, cambelt, alternator belt, (I think) - level 8 ecu with bajoo chip group a air filter and group a coil, bailey breather system and swirl pot.

What do you guys rekon?

Didnt think he would need to uprate the radiator, standard rads work fine on a stage 3 car IMO.

as mantioned above by shorty, a good condition std rad should be fine and a change to an alloy item may drop at least 3 degrees more in water temp so more efficient. you got a breather sorted too as I would rcommend one for anything over a Stg1 chip
