2nd, DPs are probably a more cost effective power mod if you go w/ piggies

Default Nah, man, I cannot go and spend $13, but I can't let it lie, either...

Chip is a given. I'd like to milk out something above and beyond that, though.

Default If you don't have short-shifter, should get one of those. Get bi-pipe instead of new TBB. Also get

BPV's. Next cat-back, then suspension, brakes, then DP's (or piggies), and IC's.

Default OK, then, would you say chip with piggies? cuz that's what I have planned...

Chip = $600
Piggies + $350 (or so, through Vast)

= $950 for a pretty fast ride...

then what?

Default you have the ICs b/4 the K04s? If so, what are your impressions of 'em

I'm thinking about the silva ICs, but I'll probably be at least 3- the time I install 'em anyway

Default I have the AWE IC's. I like them. It was more of a staged thing, because I

already had every thing on my car when it was 2+, so I went with IC's at that time. It was worth about 10WHP average over FATS range with K03's.

I don't know anything about Silva IC's, although I have seen a few posts on these, Picked up the AWE IC's cause Josh(formerly from Achtuning) had an extra set and made me a deal on them. These along with my DP's led to turbos spooling up faster which caused TC overboost problems with my old GIAC-X which led to me getting new GIAC-X L308x code to fix it.
