colder plugs would be nice. meth would be better. Prodrive boost solenoid would help. Depends on what kind of $ you wanna drop.

Fuel pump is cheap and cant hurt. Make sure its in great running condition. If you are running an AP make sure it has the latest firmware as it will save time.

yes it going to be with the ap.. firmware is always updated.. ok i thought of the fuel pump walbro.. colder plugs i guess is a must.. i was also thinking about the prodrive boost solenoid..

the person im going to is john at precision tuning.. he said a fuel pump and injectors but injectors are too steep..

i don't think you'll be maxing out your injectors at all with a TBE and drop in... new injectors are more ideal when you start playing with bigger turbos and whatnot

Is it out of the question to splurge on a meth kit?
