Yes thats an awesome price! Just make sure hes tuned dsm's before. I think $200 per tune is the cheapest iv seen. Oh and I wouldnt even bother with the dual map unless e85 is very far way.

It's not far, but I take often trips from California to Arizona, and there is not too many e85 pumps trough the desert , so that's what why i want the dual map.

Looks like a good price and good setup. I too am building my nearly stock evo 8 towards a dual-map E85 tune. I have the new fuel pump installed already and the TBE. Now I just need to get my hands on some injectors and such.

Did you do the FP install yourself? Mind me asking how hard it was? I've got the "How-to" saved but want to hear from members that have physically done them themself.

Fuel pump is about an hour install...1.5 if you've never done it before but are somewhat handy with tools.

Injector install is about an hour install...if you've never done it just be careful not to lose the spacers or crimp an o-ring. Prices aren't bad but if you're handy you could do it yourself.

Why is the install so much on the three port? It's one bolt and two vac lines...unless it isn't a plug and play type and they have to solder lines and such.

I think you will need to upgrade your diverter valve

I didn't actually do it myself. A friend of mine changed it while I was working on changing my brakes, so I didn't see the process. He had it done in under 30 minutes or so.
