Well, finally got a decent air filter on the car. Went by pepboys and saw they had modular intake tubes and couplings for about 11-12 bucks a section. On top of that they had an AFM adapter for 15 bucks. So I picked that up lickity split and saved myself 100 bucks plus shipping. Granted, it's not the best quality in the world, but it's better than what I was running before... ( pillowcase)

Talked to RTek recently about why I can't get above a specific RPM while in boost (since it's impossible for me to get above 4 grand without being in boost), and they have told me that it is extremely detrimental to run the MAP sensor for the NA in boost, and that I would need to pick up a TURBO ecu and MAP sensor and figure out the wiring to run everything proper. I'm looking more and more in to picking up a Motec, but at the same time I might be able to just pick up a Haltech/AEM and run a can bus (granted it won't be as awesome as a motec, but it does free up funds for other necessities that I would require for this project: Cannon plugs, electric AC, etc)

If however I manage to find a deal or can magically afford a motec, i'm definitely going with one. The only trouble is I don't know what M series to go for. M400... M800... Just don't know... lol
