Also, ported TB? Aren't people all using the 80mm now? Does the 80 need a tune, but ported doesnt?

Personally I think the gains from the spacer are greater than the porting but that's just me...

So CAI, VMax TB, and a JacFab spacer would be a good start. No tune needed?

Do the downpipes really help, i thought the factory ones were just fine?

You do not need a tune, but it will help get max gains out of those mods. Our stock downpipes are the most restrictive part of the exhaust so high flows do help.

I'll tune the day my warranty is up, but im trying to get a little boost to hold me over.

If you go with high flow or catless you will need to tune the CEL out or get o2 extenders.

Thought it was hit or miss unless you went with SOLOs, but you might be right.

Surprised this hasn't been said, but if you do not already have it get a catch can.

Yea, im ordering one when i do the cai. Just figuring out what else to tack on.

Anyone running that "clean side" can that replaces the oil cap? I'm not sure how that one works, but was thinking about doing both.

Clean side is worth it, basically get's everything the dirty side can does not.
