It is all relative to the person. I liked the lopey idle of the 272's when I first installed them. Then Shiv tuned most of it all out when he updated the firmware on my XEDE. With the bigger turbo installed, some of the lope came back . 264's will idle like stock w/ tuning.

In a nutshell, you should use parts that your tuner recommends and sells. This makes tuning your car easier and makes customer service much better. WORKS and Vishnu have some nice reflash programs. Any parts you buy from them gets you a free reflash for those parts. I know I have gotten my fair share of free reflashes and XEDE maps from Vishnu. Plus, both companies are located in the bay area so shipping is cheaper and custom tuning is only 9 hours away.

 

i disagree about drop ins not doing anything. Had my car on dyno 243 hp, and another 05 on the same dyno same day, with just a works drop in +8 whp over mine.

get what you feel like. it all adds up in the end. I myself did the tbe, injen inkake and flash at the same time. with that and the ebc i ran 12.7's at 108 (pump gas). with the addition to the 272/272 cams and another flash i sure i added at least 25-30 whp. It all in the tune man. i now piggy back my flashes with a saf2. good luck and have fun

 

you run 12.7@107 thats really good without cams, way higher that everyone else !!!

 

Alot of the 05s are running those times with the same mods.

Warrtalon is running low 12s.

 

hope you guys have the money to fix your car after drag racing, it really hurts yur car

 

I know alot of people who race their cars on the weekend and drive them daily. It is tough on the car, but its not that big of a deal unless your running 400+ hp, under 400 you should be fine with an aftermarket clutch.

 

Unless you don't know how to launch or your dropping the clutch at an insane RPM you should be fine. I have tons of launches on mine at the strip. Still on stock clutch at 34k.

 

when you right you are right JEFF! i remenber when i star drag racing few people told me just drope it and you will have a great take off bull shiiitttttt!!!! all it diid was burn my clutch,
and now i don't burn it at all an have better results, almost 16,000 miles and still on my stock clutch.

 

thats because you dont know how to drive j/k. give em hell evogod!

 

na, thats not all that great. considering that i now trap 115 with cams.

 

junkie your my hero!! i salut you!!!A#@$%^&*%$#@S
