Next?

Well, Im finally on the wagon with most of this community.. haha.

Im a bit confused on what to do next.

I have:
AMS TBE
APS BOV

On order today:
Forge UNOS
Walbro Fuel Pump

^^ should be here end of this week, or begining of next.

Now, should I go with a WORKS Drop In... like is it worth it, or should I just not bother?

Flash is coming real soon, after I get everything installed, and can find 2-3 days I can take off work so I can send in the ECU.

True. However I have been searching about the two for quite sometime today, and have notice some better responses towards the WORKS...

Isnt the works a dry type one? Occasionally the K&N ones are over oiled, which can lead to oil on the MAF in a small number of cases. So either make sure your KN is not over oiled or pay the extra and get the works. Snot going to make mcuh diff IMO.

There isn't really a question here. You're only asking whether you should get the Works filter or not. That's really not worth posting a new thread. Get it or don't - you won't notice the difference, and it won't affect the tune. The stocker filters better and only restricts a few ponies. There are far more important mods to worry about, and please don't save money for those intakes you listed - save money for useful things like cams, LICP, ported/coated manifolds/hotside/o2, and alky.

You can get flashed before or after the filter with no adverse affects either way, so don't let that slow you down. Just get the flash as soon as you have the MBC and pump installed. After that, you'll be at Warrtalon Stg2 with a nice combo of brands. Good job.

Yea, ur right, no need for the thread becuase I pretty much answered my own concern after I posted.

Im gonna pass on the filter, and I didn't mean I was gonna save for an intake. I ment Ill save the money, do other things.. and when I have the money, and want an intake later on (WHENEVER) ill consider. Believe me, Im aware there is far more important/better things than an intake.. especially after reading your posts!

..and Thanks.
