FP4rs? those things scare me.
Your engine size won't really determine how much boost you can run, but it will tap out the turbo quicker than a 2.0L because of the increase in gas.

Indeed. As long as they can keep them in stock, these are the next HKS 272 (DSM) or HKS 280 (evo8) imho.

Not sure about the Evo version, but for DSMs there are apparently super tight clearances required, the valve stem seat height needs to be exactly matched to stock spec, and you need a basic spring upgrade to rev to 8k or so. So with the aftermarket parts, you need to make sure everything is put back in at factory spec.

Would be nice, but at least I know 3 or 4 of the pulls did make over 400.

After reading FP's site it does sound like the DSM 4/5R's are super picky about clearances, etc. The Evo ones were designed around the factory specs with enough clearance added into them to account for sub-par builds.
