^^Good idea with the intake mani....
that as well as some head work needs to be done.
and yeah definitely direct port nos....dunno why but i love using nitrous.


I'm considering the AEM.....but I heard it's hard to tune...and we dont really have any good tuners down here....and we dont have a 4WD dyno!! i know..lame!
so i was thinking about something a little more user friendly..like the power fc...not too sure as yet tho.
thats why I'm askin opinions.

Well if you get the AEM then I'm sure you got enough money to have someone like Sean Ivey fly out there to tune the AEM and give you a quick lesson on it. Anything is possible with money

The power fc is not going to be any easier to tune then an AEM. Since you don't have any tuners or dyno's I think the ECU+ would be a good addition for you. The datalogging is amazing and is easy to use. Plus, its only $495 and you won't have to mess w/ the driveability portion of a standalone. I don't have a ECU+. I actually have an XEDE, but if I was in your situation I would be looking pretty hard at the ECU+.

Just my opinion.

If you are running 11.3's right now, Alcohol + 1000cc inj + 35psi + AEM EMS = Sub 10's

Cant hurt putting a Magnus Sheetmetal Intake Manifold on there either, it can come predrilled for direct port for your NOS
I 2nd the idea for the alcohol. I dont think you would have to upgrade the injectors yet if you have the alky setup. Then AEM would probably have to be the next step.

well I got the koyo radiator on the way....so my next step is definitely management. Dont mind goin the AEM at all..
the alcohol injection is no problem either...seems like an easy mod .my aim is low 10's ..like 10.2-10.3......
with or without nos...doesnt matter. once the car remains a street car with a/c etc

^was considering the ignition upgrade even without the alcohol inj..
seems as though my only option for that is the aem..
cause I heard that the hks causes coil problems.....
I really would like an ignition setup where i could totally get rid of the stock coils..i hate those things!

AEM with the CDI and motorcycle coils, people have been doing this for a while now, I think they actually use the coils out of a Seadoo jetski because they fit the best. Go over to the aempower.com forums and search for COP or coil on plug upgrades and you should find it.

IMO though people have gone 9 seconds on the stock coils. But every man for himself I guess
