Performance mods - what order?

Racetronix.com also has them.

Fuel Pump Remove and Install

You can use the fuel pump lead under the hood to energize the pump and some hose run from the fuel rail to a gas can to drain the tank.

Thanks for the help Dan! My car is similar to yours - Basically stock - never been apart - 77000 miles. I just bought a scanmaster and installed a digital boost gauge and egt gauge to match my digital dash. I really just want the car to run the best it can - but I don't want to blow anything up. I would like to take a precautions and keep from making costly mistakes. I am just an infant when it comes to the turbo/computer end of these cars - they are really amazing!

I'll try to keep up with you Doug!!

I notice williams posted the pump install, but not the hotwire install. I know there's one out there with pictures, I just can't lay my hands on it right now. If you're going to do the hotwire, do the pump also.

There's really not much to the hotwire install. You install a relay at the rear of the car, and a fuse under the hood. If you want, I can take some pics of mine and PM you. I think even I could have done the hotwire by myself. I'm sure if you need any tech advice, it's here.

Just remember, there's a wealth of knowledge on this site. Somtimes so much it's hard to find what you need. If you can't find it, don't be afraid to ask. 99.9% on here are good people and most even remember how it felt to not know anything.

I guess I'll get to shopping for FP gauge and boost gauge now.

Sorry Racetronix!

BTW - Racetronix hotwire kit is only $45 - my bad

Alky does NOT give you octane, but does cool the intake charge to allow more boost, BUT only up to a certain point without more mods?

If that statement where true,

explain this

If your only cooling the intake, then your on the premise a huge IC would have the same effect as alky. Not a true statement.

Dan - I do want to do the hotwire and the fuel pump upgrade. Any info you have that you can provide would be great.
