Need to beat my friend...what should I get

We both have 05s and we're both getting tuned by Turbotrix in 2 weeks.

His setup:

Turbo XS TBE
Helix Intake
Hallman MBC
Walbro Fuel Pump
GSC 272/264
LPI lower Intercooler pipes
APS BOV

My setup:

Helix TBE
Helix Intake
Hallman MBC
Walbro Fuel Pump
GSC 272/272

What other relatively affordable mods can I get to beat him on the dyno, and then on the street?

All I've got so far is that the extra couple whp of the 272s evens out the difference of the BOV holding boost better and the intercooler pipes, and a prayer

the best thing u can do is a bomb *** reflash from works or vishnu, they are both fairly affordable . with that you will beat him hands down because of your better tune

alky injection $500 and that would be a guarenteed win.

Edit:

I am assuming you want to beat him after the TurboTrix tune as well.

Well, first of all, it's certainly not smart to have all those mods while using the stock BOV. I can't understand trying to make an extra 100whp while pushing increased boost through a weak, leaky, plastic BOV. Start with at least an MR DV to ensure steady boost with no leaks. Then, if you want to knock his socks off, go with an alky kit.

I don't understand why people are saying to get reflashes when you already said you're both going to TurboTrix to get tuned...
