Pretty impressive that you can go that far with just an safc. I took a different route already for engine management. I think a standalone is pretty unnecessary unless you want a bigger turbo though. It does let you raise the rev-limit for those big cams, and add a little timing in there too. We need a awd dyno in the 757. I'm tired of driving up to maryland. I'm just going to invest in my own tuning equipment, wideband commander and a good knocklink

Evo8
Not too bad... I wasn't super impressed with it, but it's still a hott car. Has anyone seen the specs for the new Porsche Carrera GT, holy shit is that car hott as all hell... I would kill everyone on drag just to own that car, but $440,000 is a little bit out of my price range.

Desolate_Flux,
Where in Great Bridge do you live? I don't think that I have seen you around. I drive a silver BMW M Coupe, give me the finger or something if you see me around. And we can race or something

Evo/STI are very nice cars.
But I cant imagine paying 30-33k for a 4cyl. No matter what it was.
Does the Evo8 even have a radio? I read somewhere that it doesnt. Must be an option.
$32k + 4cyl + no radio = ....
Cobra...34k. mmmm.
