^Thanks bro for the input, input is def welcome here in this journal! RacerXS runs the same Boost Controller and had 0 problems. I heard of stories with the acvr and it reseting itself and dumping the memory out. For my setup, I believe the Blitz piece will be nice overkill.

Where is that gb for the plasma coilpacks??? Linky?!?

It's about time.

How about a built motor? Your going to be pushing a lot on this setup.

Not the first thing I will buy, more likely the last thing. I need the APS Fuel Rail Kit, so I will prob get that first.

^Yup, I even researched them, everything seems to be correct about them. I will def have them for the turbo install, but I will get them later on. Or I may jump in the gb.

just cause you read one bad thing about the avc-r doesn't mean to get it.
but it's up to you, most big setups run an electronic controller, but that doesn't mean you have to.
the prodrive unit is praised by many esp whomever will tune your car.

Yah, I like electronics, so its just another thing in my car that will display live readings plus more. I figure why not, plus I don't like BLUE, jk.

After seeing how nice Steve's shift boot, e-brake, and console lid came out, I want to order up my Zero Sports Black Shift boot with the red stiching, then have Alex custom make me a console lid and e-brake boot, and do some "other" custom work I have planned for the trunk. Does anyone know a vendor that has the Zero Sports Black Shift Boot with the red stiching in stock at a GOOD price? I am ready to order this NOW!
