Why is it every body skips the oil pressure gauge. It is probably the most imoportant gauge you need.

If you have E85 where you're at then it's the best power mod, period. Pump+Injectors+tune.

I'd suggest AFR and fuel pressure gauges. You can see your boost on the fuel pressure gauge, so I consider boost gauges redundant. If you need to know your exact boost then get a Tactrix and learn to log your car. In everyday driving you just need to know if boost and fueling is 'good' or not and you can see that out of the corner of your eye using fuel pressure.

I find it odd that Michael@ETS would be suggesting an fmic for stock turbo. I can see that if you live in FL but up here in the Midwest? haha. We're lucky if temps are above 70.

^^^ FMIC's still add considerable gains on the stock turbo. They just really shine on upgrade turbos. It is one of the last bolt-ons that he has to do. And ETS has a 5% off discount on their website(see "vendor announcements forum").

Didn't for me. If you go E85 then there isn't anything more to be had in the stock turbo.

Alright so after reading all those, i should probably clarify...i have an ets intake already. I dont have an ets intercooler. I live near woodward avenue so basically im lookin for torque/ quarter mile tuning, but still a tight suspension for when i go to the track. The only problem with e85 is that i have no pumps around here...and what kind of tune? just a dyno tune?
