You're running a big bore TB without a tune? That sounds like a recipe for disaster.

Your best bet is to go to your local forums and find a tuner in your general area, and find out what applications they do their best work with.

just a tune. Buy a vafc, safc, or neo or actually any piggyback and get it tuned. it'll help squeeze out some extra HP from your mods.

There are actually better things besides piggybacks though.

not much, just about 5 wires you have to connect from the VAFC to the ecu. Installing is a breeze but tuning it, is a different story. You want to get it tuned by a professional tuner or you'll just mess up your car.

Not every 00 and 01 s2ks run rich. Mine did not. With a short ram and test pipe my afrs where 13.5. I went with the Greddy emanage tune.
