I did some research on the Kit Carlson EMS. So far it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif). But I have one question: approx how much performance boost on a "totaly" (except a custom cold air intake) stock 2.0 D-jet I am look'n at? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

I know is it kind of meaningless to install the kit on a stock engine, but as the budget concern (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif), the kit is is the only affortable engine upgrade for me right now.

I'm planing to save some$$$ for one of Jake's massive IVs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif)

Any suggestion will be appriciated:)

So fiid,

I suppose that Dave just wasted the last 8 years  of his life building a MAP based unit...

May as well stop testing right now, pull the system off my car and burn the bitch.

Not at all. MAP is a suitable approximation for most systems, and I have found it to work pretty damned well. It's not so hot on engines that

Similarly - carbs work for most systems.

Something doesn't have to be perfect to be better. Better is good. Next week there will be something better than todays better. Technology is just about continuously trying to better what is there today.

I have a lot of respect for the work both you and Dave have done - it's top notch stuff. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Please don't take what I am sayin' as dispectin'.
