cat back prep and a product q

I was looking at them a while back but few people on 7club could answer my questions without being pricks. There where a few who answered my first question but fell off after that. So would the rteck still need a fuel computer if i went the 2.x route? My goal for now is to run about 10psi on the stock turbo, thbat should hold me over untill I have the cash to upgrade the whole turbo.

I ran a Rtek 2.0 for about 8 months on the stock turbo at 10-12psi with 550/750 injectors. Its was great and allowed me to nail my idle and richen up in higher rpms. Just sold it actually. its about $500 after you get a palm and cable (the downsides to the deal), you get alot of functionality for not much more than the cost of a FCD ($50) and a SAFC ($150-200).

^Agreed. I've been running an Rtek 2.x on my S5 T2 since this past February and am very happy with it, given my limited mods (BNR Stage 1 turbo upgrades, 720cc injectors in all 4 holes, Supra TT Denso fuel pump, RB/Borla exhaust system).

Don't let hunting down a compatible Palm device scare you away - the old low-tech monochrome display palm m100 models with a couple of extra hot-synch cables can be had from a number of online resellers (new or refurb) for under $40 delivered. These work fine for tuning/logging, and since I don't use the palm for anything else, it's good enough for me.
