Default Re: GIAC threw AWE makes a stg 3- that is the way I am thinking about untill

That sounds like a plan... but is the GIAC program just that... a program? Or does it require a reflashing of the ECU? If it is just an additional program like pump or kill, then that would be awesome. If it requires an additional reflashing, it wouldn't be quite as ideal, but still better than buying another ECU to me.

I will be getting the AWE fueling kit so I can talk with them I guess when I order that.

BTW, if you're fairly local to NJ, John @ L10 helped me out a lot with figuring this stuff out, so I would recommend talking to him about any parts questions.

Default GIAC stg 3- requires reflash of your ECU, but they can retain the OEM

program for an additional ~ $50.00

If you purchase the turbo kit through AWE they will include the 5 bar FPR (fuel pressure regulator) that you'll need to go stg 3-

I also spoke with John @ L10 - he was very helpful, answered all of my questions before, during and after their work.

PS: if you go with aftermarket SMIC (AWE's are excellent btw) be sure to discuss with the shop doing your work that your transmission cooler will need a bracket fabricated - I kept mine in the original location. Let me know if you're interested and I'll post a pic?
