They quoted me 1935 for everything

parts, dyno, labor
sorry i didn't get this till today dude.....

that's wierd b/c i'm running rich if anything so eventhough it could rob me some power i don't run the risk of blowing up when revving on it.

if your going to go with alot of boost your better off with ems but if your going to keep the stock pulley on there and do some other stuff with injectors, maybe some head work, you should be fine

My stock Vortech setup was really lean too. Inline told me to make sure I dont push it especially in longer gears like 3rd-4th. Probably saved my engine. I got a $50 recalibration kit to fix it. Is it going to be as great as your e-manage? Nope. Not even close, but it's not as lean now. I'd consider it a good temporary fix. Not sure if that helps you at all.
I planned on going to an engine management system. not this soon though, but I might as well get it done now right? How is yours running now?

nothing much, been swamped getting a prototype ready for a few big meetings, last one is today. w00t.

After this week I expect about 2-3 weeks of easy going while the Business Engineers and UI Designers do their thang, then ramp back up with my development...
