Seriously though, thats your key step there.
Dan, if he chooses i-speed/crawford I will personally hunt him down and tear out his heart.

Why choose a fixed map when running a monster setup?????

If you have a set up of this magnitude you need to be able to switch maps to take advantage of 100 octane, c16 and meth to make an extra 100whp!!!!!

I don't care how talented Shiggy is (very talented from what I've heard), Ecutek is the wrong option for this kind of build.

04caliwrx you still haven't answered any questions on EM, Pretty please, with a sugar on top, tell us what EM and which tuner you will be using and why?

Baller setup btw, I wish I could talk the wife into letting me do the same

If you can't figure out Impreza Al's picture of the EcuTeK disc and cable, then you can't say that EcuTeK is not a good EM for his set-up...
