As for the meet this Sunday, I'm out of town (back to KY) for the weekend and won't be back until Monday so count me out.

We're starting to get a lot of people around here. Like Justin said, now if we can just get everyone to show up. I'm fine with meets later in the day on Sunday if that would help. I'd also be up for a track day at some point.

06MREvo - Welcome to the area man. We try to have meets on Sundays when it's nice. I try to have the OP updated as soon as a place/time is decided on so hope you can make it out

Cams, Fuel pump, Head Studs, Electronic boost controller, Dyno tune for about 2300.

Worth it? and any estimated HP results?
just like the other guys said i'm sure you can get all that done by the Fail crew for a lot less...sh*t i could do all that but tune...thats where my buddy Kreionic takes over...are you dead set on cams and an EBC?? I would keep the MBC for now and look into a FMIC and piping...I would def. do Fuel pump before your tune...have you thought about injectors at all?? I am right about 350whp right now and my stock injectors are sitting i think right on 100% duty cycle...haha...a nice FMIC & piping, fuel pump and a good tune would net you some nice power and you wouldn't have to put all the labor $$ into getting the cams installed and pulling the head to do headstuds...

Yea my next steps were Cams and then meth injection whenever I was tired of 350 at the wheels..I heard a bigger FMIC and piping would be good if I upgraded my turbo but it wouldn't do much for me if I was holding onto the stock turbo.

LICP will help spool up...even on a stock turbo...UICP does nothing besides clean up the engine bay a little bit if you get a short route pipe & mini batter kit that is...FMIC even on stock turbo can add up to 25whp...i've seen it myself on an AWD mustang dyno...FMIC will lower or get rid of any knock...
