Some Bolt-On Installations!! - Page 2

Agree with BoostCreep and some of the others. Some of the items price wise are normal and reasonable compared to consumer purchase price from retailers but the aux fuel pump unnecessary. Don't know if it's in your budget but you could probably get a blower for 9k installed and get real torque and power, then just do the roto fab, flex fuel, and intake manifold yourself. If you do your mods list minus the aux fuel pump and have it tuned with dyno, you're probably more likely at 2600.00 to 2800.00

Still not seeing why they would add an auxiliary fuel pump?

Definetly no, they are selling you unnecesarry parts... which are proven to not need it... plus adding an extra 50$ here and there for parts... plus also their install rates... look to me that, that shop is only helping their pocket and not looking after their customer....

Honestly the intake manifold, tb and flex fuel i did it myself after never doing it in another car. this forum has plenty of How-to, very clear i might add, plus many awesome people willing to answer any questions... I personally did everything via Pray Performance which add additional wisdom, with proven results.

IMO, i'd stay away with ONLY profit minded businesses... This is why i ONLY work with Pray.. he is here to help and win some $$ not just the last one.
