jw - congrats man. Any idea what your putting down?

charlie - I hope so man lol. Did you ever have a problem with your tune? I spoke to a local guy tonight who said he had tons of problems with vmp and it has me a little worried.

Little change of plans here. I am still doing the vmp500 kit pullies but instead of getting a tune through VMP I am going with a tune from JDM. I spoke with Jim from JDM earlier and he told me they work first hand with the vmp pullies and have no problem tuning for it along with my exhaust mods. He also told me there was no need for a boost a pump unless I did any other mods, and he suggested to just get the gt500 pumps if it ever came to that. Anyways cant wait to get this thing bolted on and load the tune in.

You're going to be making 500 flywheel and running stock fuel pumps? Everything I've heard led me to believe that was a no-no.

Well JDM and VMP are both some of the top tuners on the east coast so I doubt theyre wrong about that. They said because of my headers it will actually lower the boost a little bit on the blower because of the larger air flow.
