Message I know this guy has an NA so this doesn't specifically apply to his case, but I figure I'd point this out anyway.

Simply putting in a ECU and boost jets will give you a huge increase in power (primarily from the boost).
Look at my car- it has never been custom tuned, and with an ECU upgrade and boost jets I'm making 339 rwhp/389 rwtq.

I first bought a JWT ECU and intake- put them in and tried it out, not much difference in performance. Then I installed the boost jets- HUGE increase in power. Then I added exhaust- slight increase in power.

While your post was meant as a joke, sadly people often overestimate the importance of the supporting mods without maximizing the gains from the primary mods. That's why we get messages such as "Why is my stage XX Z with Stillen/JUN/Border yada yada yada only putting out 280 rwhp? By the way I'm only running 10 psi boost as indicated by my dual 6 inch boost gauges"
