Hey Lark, I am not an official Iron Butt Motorcycle member, but I did ride 8800 mile in 25 days once. I drove straight from K.City, to home, about 1100 or 1200 miles in 25 hrs. And twice straight from Kennebunkport to here in western nc. When I am on road by self and time to go home, I like to keep on going. Me and a buddy rode from North side of Lake Ontario straight home once too. I'm no expert, but your plan looks good, and you could add a cool blue hose. Funny thing---now the cool blue hose comes in red and black too. I got red.

The 95 fass will be plenty for anything you can or want to do. It is amazing how the fass systems will hold the pressure, even when the cp3 has gone way beyond its limits. (I know from experience) If you go with that turbo, dont even hesitate, get head studs!! You will need them, no question. A couple of other suggestions, look towards the Dr Performance predator instead of the ez, and be prepared for a cp3 upgrade in the near future with all those mods.
Oh and one more thing, when getting the tranny, make sure you get a new flexplate, like a suncoast or ats unit. I fully recommend the suncoast unit

As far as studs, he doesn't necessarily need them. It's a wastegated turbo. He can run it at 30psi if he wants.

I thought that too,,, lol,, yeah right,, crank that baby, it is a disease. It lasted about 3 days. And at 50 that is the threshold of troubles.
Im not saying that you absolutely need them, but I personally would never go without them at that level.

I agree 110%. My point was simply that the $$ for studs is not an absolute necessity with the list of mods he had, if dealing with a budget.
