This....Even though the cam doesn't require them but the HP level u want to be at would require them plus its for peace of mind.

You really {sort of} need 130# springs with the high exhaust pressures from the turbo. I can almost guarantee you will end up putting 130's in later on especially with the manual. You will want all of 6700+ rpm with your crappy gear ratios. ------------------

It really is geared all wrong. They are way too long.

On paper, I gained 300whp going to 150s from 130s on my car.... It feels like alot more power, and it runs ALOT better.
1.85s would be a downgrade, they are heavier and will float more, as well as not make much more if any extra lift.[This message has been edited by darkhorizon (edited 08-19-2013).]

Been chatting with Scott (DH) today. Got some interesting ideas to get to work on. Thanks man!
Edit: Looking at the above pic... that Bonneville oil cooler is gonna be a tight fit me thinks.[This message has been edited by BV MotorSports (edited 08-21-2013).]

Yeah that oil adapter isn't going to work, almost guaranteed to hit the cradle. ------------------

This is not a spec 3+ and it is NOT the correct fitment for the F23. Notice the PP has been ground down and its still hitting the inside of the bellhousing.

That is indeed a Spec Stage 3+. The Spec Stage 3 is a 4 or 6 puck style, the Stage 3+ is the solid face material. The Stage 4 is a Stage 3 with no springs, the Stage 4+ is a Stage 3+ w/o springs.
But, yeah that pressure plate should not have been used.
