WOW! Im speachless. Not only does grammar own you but so does READING COMPREHENSION. Those below are specific questions that I asked YOU.
If you'll notice.......I replied this to YOU. (see your s/n next to number 1)
Ok....Ill jump in.
1)Fireboy...lets see some numbers and graphs. I believe they were posted in the FI section (even here temporarily) but there were may questions left unanswered about your set-up and tune.
2) Lets see what happens in the upcoming months and how happy you are there.
3) How many miles and dyno runs do u have on your set-up?
4) How many aftermarket FI set-ups have you done?
5) Are you past your "boost break-in" period? lol
I don't even get PM's from them anymore. I've been around for years and seen and heard the horror stories from multiple different platforms.
FYI, the guys who built your set-up are MUCH more reputable than the one who tuned it. But you would know that from all the research you did.
How was the boat ride?
The post about the break in was for PunisherZ.

LOL.. Talk about out of the wastelands on this thread.
Way to go on the revive. I am amazed at the drama around the Mid-A. Totally surprised this thread didn't get locked or shut down completely.
Since there is noway i am spending all day catching up can someone provide an accurate analysis of the events that transpired to lead to this point?

As for fuel, the reason I'm going with the APS TT Extreme kit is because it includes everything I need for the fuel system upgrades. The Greddy 20G does not so it'd cost me at least $1000 more in the end.
APS TT Extreme comes with:
-880cc injectors
-Full twin fuel rail system with dual fuel regulators
-In-tank dual-fuel pump
Those three upgrades above (not in the Greddy kit) would cost me around $2000. And from what I've heard the APS TT kit will make nice, smooth, full-band power (especially with those BC S3 camshafts) when coupled with the Haltech platinum EMS, and Dave's tuning, of course!
Do you guys think the APS TT Extreme will max out compared to the Greddy?
My goals are:
-"Daily driveability" with boost turned down to generate 400-450whp
-When feeling saucy, unleash more boost to get 600+whp
I'm building the motor for 800-1000whp, so I'd like the ability for my kit to go above and beyond 600whp if possible some day. But for now, I'm kind of in "overbuilding" mode so I can run with boost and limit the risk to my investment.

Well I would assume 2 TD06-20G's could net you 1000WHP if tuned properly I am not sure if the Greddy kit comes with TD05's though.
EDIT: The greddy kit comes with 2 TD06SH-20G, with enough fuel and boost I don't see why not.

So I guess now I'm thoroughly confused.
Looks like I'm going to do plenty of research on this over the coming months. It probably wouldn't happen until later this year so no rush.

Anyone know what the APS TT kit will do with all the right supporting mods? I know the 20G kit is a beast, but I figured I could save at least $1000 bucks by going with the more fully equipped APS Extreme kit. With its 3.5" downpipes and rather large turbos, I thought it sounded like it'd push out some serious power, right up there with the Greddy.
I've read that it's capable of 800whp and up applications...
