I'm tracking my S4 in 3 weeks, what engine stuff do I need?
I've got an MTM ecu and that is it for the engine (got brakes, susp, sway) and I'm considering BPVs and a TBB. I know someone locally selling 2 Forge BPVs for $125. Is this a must have if I plan to track? What else should I consider?

If you can pick up those Forges at that price, that's a steal...
...just make sure they have the aluminum pistons (instead of the old Delrin ones) and that they're lubed up with fresh high-temp grease before you put them in. Having a spare or uprated TBB is a must to, and if you have a 2000 model, I'd replace that F-hose before it tears. If this is your first or second time at the track, I'd recommend not running the MTM chip and running stock instead. 250+hp is plenty for a track newbie (seriously).

I have 2001, will probably just purchase a TBB and keep it in trunk
And I have seriously considered going stock for at least the first day and then maybe installing mtm just to get proof of the improvement.
