UTEC is pretty much the best you will get , unless u rip off an arm and leg and get a HKS F-Con Pro

the UTEC will give you a lot more tuning options over a lil split second box.

The SS box will do the job but Utec has more feature than the SS box. Utec is pretty much the best EMS you'll find below $1000. It would've been nice if you opted for the tuner kit but the full kit should do the job.

Do you have a wideband? If I had to do it over again then I would rather get the Tuner. With the tuner, your logs will contain the A/F and the cost is not much different. The tuner is so small you can stick it anywhere and it already display the A/F or you can buy a gauge that you can hook up with the tuner.
