Default Decision Made/Assist Please

Gents a few months ago I was on the fence about a 20 yrs of service/promotion gift to myself. I decided to keep my C6, considering that as the second owner I've had less than 3 months seat time due to being stationed overseas. I'll place my order within the next few days and it will be between the A&A or ECS kit. For all who have done this upgrade, please let me know of any lessons learned/do's and don'ts. Suggested additional parts...gauges, fuel system upgrade vs fuel voltage boost, etc, etc. There are no plans for a cam at the moment. Current mods are LG Super Pros, Borla Stingers, Halltech CAI, VMax ported intake manifold, DRM Bilsteins, Z51 Sways/Springs. The car is an A6 with 2.56 rear and I am not opposed to a moderate stall converter. Thanks in advance!

Either kit is great and has everything you need. Unless you plan on increasing the power later on, there’s no need for a fuel system. Meth would be a good addition, if you plan on making more than 600whp. As far as gauges go, I use Dashlogic for numerous functions. Tires with better grip or drag radials would be the other mod required for you to safely enjoy the added power.
