Fmic, possibly a 290 fuel pump...

Think at 450hp your pump will be pretty maxed out mate... I have similar thoughts to you for my jdm twinscroll but I want to stick with the sti tmic so saving for a lm420 instead...

theoretically a 255 is good for over 500bhp with an adjustable fuel pressure regulator increasing the pressure

how good is your clutch?

apparently the sti tmic's work well at 450bhp so you 'could' stick with that and not bother with a fmic
