You'll need arp moly lube or you can use oil. You'll have to get on their site to get the torque specs. The torque requirement is higher with oil than it is with their lube
Yea let me know thanks .. are you planning on wrapping them or did you get them coated ?
I didn't get them coated from Rick. I'm not sure if I want to wrap them either with the harsh winters and salt up here. I think I'm just going to hit them with some high temp ceramic paint myself
That sounds like a good plan.. Just picked my heads up today
Sweet. I talked to Rick and he said the sale should last till the end of the month.
Sounds good thanks man
I feel like that depends what your goals are. You still on stock turbo? I'm just doing up pipes since I will have them off for my turbo swap. I don't plan on getting too crazy so I'm not doing headers. Empire diesel did a test and the biggest gain was up pipes.
I would put your money towards a turbo before doing up pipes but that's me.
Ya a new turbo would be the most beneficial.

Stock cp3 is plenty. Injectors will hold you back before cp3.
Turbo choice has a lot of variables. How much hp you looking to make? Do you want a variable vane or fixed?
I'm building a modded Lly charger right now. Should flow enough for 650 pretty easily which is enough to blow my motor lol

Im debating wether I should go with bigger nozzles to help save my motor since im most likely upgrading to the 68 stg 2r .
I want to do bigger nozzles. I will most likely send mine off to be cleaned and honed out. In my mind it's insurance lol, it gets the pulse width down getting cylinder pressure down, keeps the fuel in the bowl and allows you to turn down the timing. While your already tore down you might as well send them off
You have good Pistons though, your problem will be bending rods. Bigger Injectors aren't really going to help in that case. It will help me and my shitty Pistons lol

Yea true lol nothing is going to save the rods at that point unless its a conservative tune haha
Lol exactly, have your tuner detorque it and make all the power up top. That will help.
Yea exactly what I had in mind .. so do u think I should just have them clean my injectors and just stay stock nozzels?
Idk that's tough.. You can bend a rod at 600, the 68stg2r alone is enough to bend them. Having bigger injectors allows you to push even more power. As much as we all say well I won't use it we always have to try it once lol. I say your this far into it just throw some carillos in there and delip the Pistons
