it goes back to regular price... the price i don't know. when i talked to ken at sparks, he told me i lucked out because it wasn't going to be sold at cost anymore... so i was just giving you an FYI... and BTW, why does it have to be done before HIN? HIN is like whatever now...

dude you have an 08 correct, your not gonna get the 2100 or whatever the price is cause that is only for the 05-06 while the 07-0 is like 3200, yeah like he said do phase 4 first but since you mentioned warranty it seems like you got a long way to go til that finishes. and since you also mentioned HIN why not do phase 5 so when you show you have exterior and interior work done and the carbon fiber waterfall will have to be custom made cause firmware was the only company that made those awhile back.

trust me bro, i have more mods than you and i can barely hang with the dudes in my club. HIN is nice and all, but do you think people are gonna remember 1 scion, especially a "whatever scion" with all those cars that are there? trust me, HIN is not a place to make yourself known. it's all the local shows that give you the exposure.

a/f ratio gauge = air to fuel ratio gauge
this gauge lets you know if youre running too lean or rich... with a s/c running nearly almost constant boost pressures it's just nice to look at

egt gauge = exhaust gas temperature gauge
if youre going to be pushing your car alot exhaust temperatures will undoubtedly rise over time... this gauge will let you know when things get too hot so you wont melt a piston or some other internal

to be honest though electronics do catch people's eyes and make everything look fancy and all but they are just monitoring devices... with s/c's the boost levels are always constant... 7 psi stock s/c... 9.5 with the lightweight pulley.. etc...

with a proper initial tune your a/f ratio's will always be in the money spot whether youre just cruising or WOT... you wont have to worry about running too lean or too rich... as far as the egt gauge goes... you have to be really punishing your car for the temperature to get hot enough to start melting your internals...

IF you have the money to spend on gauges then go for it... IMO they arent neccessary at all once you get tuned and retuned after every substantial engine modification...

a&a autobody in the valley? just curious...
