Question Question on next Mod step

Hello guy I have a 2014 Evo x gsr .The performance mods I have so far are : Ets hfc, Ets Quiet exhaust, Ets intake, and Grimspeed Ebc. Im going to get my car retuned through Sean Ivey because of problems with my previous tune not holding boost up in the high rpms. It was originally tuned 6 months ago. I have some money to spend ($600 to be exact). This is not including the money its going to cost for a retune.I want to do one more thing to my car ,get it retuned, and just enjoy it . Anyone have any suggestions on what i can do?Any input will be greatly appreciated.

UICP, AFR gauge, fuel pump, and some injectors and get it tuned on E85... It might run you bit over 600$, but if you can find used injectors, and uicp would help.

even if he gets used injectors and UICP most tunes alone cost 500 dollars or so. with all that you mentioned, even with used parts, I think that's closer to 1000 bucks.

he said he has 600$ to spend not including the tune money... Most of tuners charge 100$ extra for a second map... I know its not going to come out to 600$ exactly but for few $ more he can have it all done at once.

Fuel pump and Injectors. Or a boost gauge and wideband.

Fuel pump and injectors will do nothing for you with your current mods. Skip those.

For $600, I'd get an ETS FMIC...it's more cost effective and useful than a downpipe with install costs, and does more for you than intercooler piping.

Gauges are also a good idea...but not really necessary.

ETS Upper and Wideband gauge, less than $600. Or ETS FMIC and ETS Upper a little over $600.
