Likely I wont ever be above 650rwhp. I am going to be running an air filter all the time rather than a turbo guard so my psi will be capped at 13.

Your boost is going to be capped because you're running flex fuel and won't be able to add timing on 91 octane like if you were running e85 full time. Hence another good reason for the wastegate and ebc.

And I'd not feel comfortable with having over 400 ft-lbs wtq on stock auto. Again, better safe than sorry. Also my two cents.
