Poll: 20g-9 or fmic&alky

I already have 272's, full exhaust, boost controller. I will be controlling fuel with a flash from AMS and I still have my safc hooked up also. I also already have the 10.5 hotside. What do you guys think?

I did the alky because I love the stock spoolup and the HUGE TQ you get, I make more TQ then 90% of the turbo upgrade kits

If your go with Meth injection you don't need to upgrade the FMIC.

Alky and FMIC for sure! I think you will net better gains with the alky and fmic with your current mods+ some good tunning of course.

20g9 has lots of development in it working out the side effects had with the earlier. If I had the cash I would get that plus TME, but you need more stuff than you got listed to support it e.g. injectors.

I also feel alcohol systems for our car still need a little room for improvement.

I didnt say anything bad about them, If I had the $ I would have one. I was saying that there may be a little room for improvement as a fail safe system.
