It would be nice to tune for the mods I have, and then have the flexibility to move on to a turbo or supercharger and keep the same plug and play set up and learn the software in the meantime. I'd almost bet I could squeeze another 20-25 horses out of the stock motor with bolt ons and some agressive tuning, pulling that rev limiter to 8k would be interesting NA. I'm not sure if the cams would breath well there though. I bet I could probably do that with a couple Weber side draft carbs too... but carb+boost is sloppy IMO.
Which AEM are you talking about using? If you are talking about a piggyback then it would be much cheaper. If you are taking the EMS series I think that I have seen the vers 3 and 4 for $1800+. I am not sure what MI would be able to do for a price because personally I won't ever purchase an AEM product again since I have had bad luck with them. I am hesitant to pick up a Boomslang either. As for trying to squeeze more power out of the stock setup unless mistaken there have been some folks that have gone that route and netted only around 10/15hp. Jason has bumped his limiter to the 8K and has been running it just fine apparently. Adding those few bolt-ons could get you to the 20/25 most likely, but when you spend the money you will to get that then in some ways unless you are building toward a robust setup it would be a waste of money in comparison to going FI with even low boost. Taking a couple days (literally) and researching on here and even becoming a member and searching on microimageonline.com will show you all of the leg work already done over the last 6 years. If you are serious about this stuff then it is worth your time.
