oh, and if you are experiencing head lift ARP headstuds are a must

I was wondering about the ARP head studs...I was looking to get some along with a metal hg...and ARP told me that they don't make the head studs for the 280...and i found a metal hg but holy sh*&$ I would like it if i could get a good quality one for a little cheaper because i'm on a pretty tight budget due to my pos job going out of business...where did you get your hg?

other parts i need....front and rear camber kit....bigger injectors and a new harness for the injectors...intercooler piping...turbo rebuild kit...and a new radiator

lmk if you got any good places that have some of these parts for a decent price

thanks in advance

arp sells the head stud kit, go tmine form summit

the hg, I got from msa

"camber kit" I got TechnoToyTuning weld in camber plates, they now offer adjustable LCAs if you don't want to have to cut out your shock towers

currently runnign a modine 3 row replacement radiator, you can get them form most radiator supply houses

injectors, i run DSM's with a pallnet fuel rail, but you have to have a different engine managment for the larger injectors, I run megasquirt

intercoolerpiping I got most of it from apt turbo

I do nto recomend rebuilding stock turbo's they tend to not last very long and can cause catostrophis issues, I bought my T3O4E from speedshopthaggard, his online store is gone not sure if he's sitll around
