Oh sorry dude. Let me get the throttle body on it and find the injectors and I'll let you know how much. I want to make sure I still have everything for it. From what Ive seen recently, they usually go for $250 shipped when they are complete.

OK, don't sweat the injectors, if I go that route I will probably go up to 60's anyhow so all I'm really looking for is the TB and Intake. Thanks,

I'll be running my 90mm throttle body. I think the 102 upgrade isn't very cost effective for my set up and goals. I'm waiting on the meth stuff to show up before I make a summit order. So looks like I could be down for a good week or two.

Ive been doing a lot of research and I like the AEM methanol controller the best. You can use the internal map sensor in the controller or wire an aftermarket map sensor in. It also uses a single LED in the cab to show when the pump comes on, pump intensity, any errors, ect. It has a methanol solenoid control built in and a boost safe feature that is pretty cool. If there are any errors like running out of methanol, bad pump, ect, you can wire it to shut off your boost controller to run only the spring pressure in the gate, or to cut timing, or really anything that can be controlled with a ground. Has a lot of good features for only $125.

Yeah good point with it being a 4.8L and the throttle body costing $4-550.

Now it might make a difference on that 408 of yours later down the road?

Did you decide if you were going back to 3.42s or not?

I think I will put the 3.42's back in after the track closes. I'm on the freeway most of the time to and from work so it just makes sense for me to be cruising at 2000rpm vs 2500rpm.

What traction mods did you end up doing? You can just refer me to the post or page number if you like. I am sure I missed it somewhere.
