seeing u have no tune, i would say 12.9-13.1 with great driving. whats goin to hurt u the most is the fact u have an intake and that will mess with your MAF readings to the ecu. i would recommend a reflash first before goin to the track. when i sent mine to dynoflash, it was like night and day. good luck!

Well, then, I see much pain and frustration in your future. You've consistently ignored our advice through this whole build-up and not once did anyone recommend a full standalone. Hopefully, you have someone near you who can dedicate their time to tuning your car for both daily driving/startup, and for full throttle WOT performance.

Your car will currently not do well at the track, because you aren't tuned. I've told you this time and time again. We also HATE it when people ask for estimations based off their mods, when the single most important factor is driving ability, which I'm going to assume is not your strong point.

Yes, I must have misunderstood. YOu said you were getting an AEM EMS, which is a $2000 full standalone ECU. Why would you pay for a flash, then add cams right away and get a new ECU? Business must be good out in Bahrain.

First thing I would do is get a tune and save your motor.
