most people who decide to go F.I. love the thrill of that raw torque and hp that they knowingly boost the **** out of their stock block.. and thats when **** blows up and breaks down... if you research the threads you will see that guys who F.I. with a S.C. running low boost tend to have less problems then the twin turbos or large single turbos running 12 or more pounds daily driver on stock blocks.. built motors.. boost da **** out of it.. stock block.. be modest and not try to push the motor pass its abilities.. i'm going F.I. real soon and all i want is 7 to 10 psi for daily driver while having another block build for future ventures with my z33...

no sh*t the car had more power than mine, it was a modified supercharged vehicle against an all natural, all motor car, gee I think he might of had an advantage....on a side note he only won by a fender so my N/A held it's own, I was going to get a TT eventually, but this little episode made me wanna go F/I a little earlier.

the only advantages of modifying a GTP...they can get their groceries faster

out of the box go APS, if you are going tuner then i honestly think its a toss up, just personal preference. if you are not gonna build at first you better be ready to build just in case. have fun.

APS is far too expensive for my taste, I want a tt thats simple and safe on the motor as far keeping the internals stock, and the greddy tt seems just right, I'll probably just leave it at it's 5.5 psi as it comes from greddy, mayber later down the road I may do interanals and run a higher level of boost, but for starters the 5.5 would do just fine.

Good luck. What engine management do you plan on using?

I'm going to get the AAM reflash and isn't the e-manage a good unit to use as far as keeping the 440 injectors and the 5psi of boost?
