Do you guys recommend one of these, or something totally different like a Fast Engine management, or something else? Thanks

Haha...I saw the 12.29 and thought he was throwing money out the window. You can go low 11's with the stock ECM and direct scan or scanmaster. Razor said Roy and Laz went into the 9's with just a scanmaster. Put your money elsewhere.

Thats why there are recipes... Ok to break the mold and try sumthen new.. Usually I suggest use what you have to its fullest.. then complicate yourself accordingly.

Do most guys go to those because their MAF takes a dump and they can't find a good one to replace it so they go to the Impy SS one? I know the MAF can be a source of dozens performance issues when it goes flakey.

I'd get an Alky kit, get your chip dialed in and leave it.

That would be wayyy tooo easy

If ya gots some extra loot laying around.. on a properly running and tuned engine.. put the MAFT pro and get it to go as Fast as your current setup.. then tweak on it some more for improvements.
