Glad your liking it sir! We have sold about 18 systems now all over the place. Have a vette we are working on a secondary injector setup and looking to have a set of bigger di injectors soon to test out.

Just ordered my Forgelines and brakes and suspension will be next, so along the same lines as you as well. The only thing I've done at this point is upgrade the sway bars but I'm considering coil overs now.

Awesome, I will be interested in how it turns out for you. What brakes are you doing?

I'm still in the window shopping phase and honestly have no idea yet. I got these wheels ordered and am pumped to get them in first. Trying to decide on tires now. Not too many options for a 20 in the back to get good traction. I considered 19/19 so I'd have more options but the order was submitted as 19/20 for now.

That will be sweet! I'd love to go flex or e85.

I went 19 front and 19 rear also myself for the same reason. I only went 11 inch wide on the rear going to look at getting the car lower all a round. Robert

After to speaking to Chris at ECS, looks like we will be going roughly 18 pounds of boost on their 2200 head unit later this year. Gotta make a few extra bux to keep up our HP addiction.. LOL.
