complementary mods.....

i am thinking of doin the FPR shim to about 75 pounds (a tire gauge gave its life checking my fuel pressure and read 65 psi) next time i checked my tires one check i had 45 psi, next check 145 psi lol. but, any way i think i'm gonna do this and a variant of the 10k and clean FPR screen when she makes her triumphant return from the body shop. imagine, we are facing higher and higher fuel prices, and higher everything and i'm trying to think of ways to put more fuel through my engine. will there be much merrit to these upgrades?

Yes some. You might notice an increase but run it for a week then remove it. You will notice it then

all the "little" mods have that affect on me. don't notice it until it's gone.

I did my 10 K the day after I installed my stage 2's. I noticed a little more smoke with the 10k. I'm not sure what effect it has since I'm running bigger injectors but it sure does put out a lot more smoke on a cold start with the increased icp pressure.
