They moved from FL back to NY and opened a new office in AZ.

The AEM piggyback is only $400, so not much more then the Blue. once you add the blue pressure sensor, it get's more expensive then the AEM. The aem has a port on it for boost, so no additional items needes, except Dezod's harness.

IMO, it's all personal preference (sound, etc.).. i've heard good things about the HKS, but i doubt it'll make much difference.. heck i'm only getting a tial BOV. doesn't really bother me. if it's satisfactory enough for todd to have it standard on ALL of his kits, i'm not gonna question its basic functionality.

This might be weird but, I'm not gonna let my "made in Japan" percentage drop of a bit more... (I'm currently 94% Japan) I lost it to a Megan short shifter (Chineses), Competition Stage-4 clutch (Canadian), and TWM linkage bushings dunno where from (USA or China I guess) oh and some other parts came from somewhere else stock...

I'd stick with whatever stuff is Japanese brands, so that means Greddy, HKS, and uhh TRD???

Oh, and I'm a secret tC in Vegas so, I want to stay unknown till I well,,, meet up with you accidentally at the streets... :b

Yeah, a week or so ago. He said he has had back problems for awhile, but it got really bad a week or so ago. that's why I haven't been bugging him and looking into that other tuner coming down.

lol, x2....no offense forpinks, but it seems like you don't do any research on anything, and start threads like "which is better" which ultimately gets you nowhere. i feel bad that you're going FI since you dont know anything, and without research, you won't be able to run your car safely....and that comment above only affirmed your ignorance in the whole matter, lol

you know I read one of your posts in another thread and I cant remember exactly which one it was but it was about how forpinks keeps asking about which kit is the best to buy and that he is gonna buy the one that everyone suggests for him to buy. Not for nothing, but I remember when you were looking for your turbo kit a couple months back you did the exact same thing. You were asking everyone which one you should buy, and then even after you placed your order with Dezod you thought it was gonna be alright to back out of it and then order a TT kit. Im not really trying to start anything with you, but just dont be a hypocrite. Everyone knows forpinks can get annoying, but just remember, you were in his same position a couple of months ago when you didnt know the first thing about boosting your car.

I agree with that, to a sense, but 20tc actually did some searching, and he posted, what, maybe 2 threads?
forpinks posted like 10 the first week he was on the boards.
Plus, I dont' think 20tc has said anything in this thread about forpinks asking questions. He just said that brett cracks him up. Nothing hypocritical about that.

Everybody in a way does that by asking for personal opinions. That is how we learn, but we also learn by searching. And trust me, I searched a lot.

Fine I'll get AEM, I've researched a bit on FIC and found it to be more compatible with VVT-i than Ultimate which is good for VTEC...

Also if I use 550cc RC injectors will I see an increase in power even with the OE pump?

hahahahahahahahahaa pinks is up to his usual antics again. wow, just... wow! about your "made in japan" comment, you're way down past 94% considering 99 percent of what you have is strictly US market (YOUR ENTIRE STOCK CAR, which just happens to be "sport-tuned.".... hahahaha). as for your "research" regarding ultimate vs. aem and vvt-i vs. vtec, what the heck?!

just cause the ultimate says that it can control vtec points, doesn't mean its "better" for it....most tuners anyways who have hondas, use a hondata, which is far superior for their cars.....the aem gives you the most freedom......and regarding all of "forpinks" posts.....he asks questions that have been posted at least 10 times a month.....it is ok to know nothing about FI, but search first, then ask when you don't understand something....not questions like , which is better...etc....seems like he needs someone to hold his hand in deciding what he wants to do.....the whole point of going tubo is so you can customize to what you want out of the car...not what is the biggest name brand you can buy....
