Am I headed in the right direction?(Mods)
Hey guys I just needed some opinions if I'am headed in the right direction mod. wise.
I have 2 gauges(A/F Ratio, Boost), Boost Controller Profec-B, SS DP, Greddy Sp Cat Back.
Runs perfect from 10-8-10 to 11-9-12 on very cold days but not very many in Texas.
My next mods will be a Pettit Limited ECU for plug and play ease. Also a Performance fuel pump w/ clean filter at the same time.
After these mods should I get a large FMIC from M2 or a Mid Pipe w/ported wastegate and intake(pettit)?
Also with all these mods in place what will be the highest(safest if that makes since) psi I could run and whats a good cruising psi?
Also I got the engine code for my EGR valve and sensor(94 Non-Cali). The light keeps coming on then it will go off for a couple days then re-appear. Seems like its dirty. If I clean it will the problem be fixed. And how do I go about cleaning it?
Thank You in advance for bearing with me(Search would not turn up answers I was looking for)
My car is a 94' R2 w/ 107,000 miles w/20,000 miles on new engine, 10,000 on new turbos
Interior is mint except for regular wear on seats
Exterior is about to be repainted and dent free after keying incident.

Since you live in Texas, if I were you, I would look to upgrade the radiator next. Have you eliminated or replaced the stock AST?
If not, you should look to do one of those..
After that, then the Pettit ECU would be a nice upgrade. As for the FMIC, if you are going to keep the stock twin turbos, I would recommend just getting a SMIC (unless you just want the IC sticking out the front).

Have heard both good and bad things about pulley sets, so I'll just leave them out till I hear otherwise. AST is stock and so I think Ill get the aluminum one with a Koyo Rad.
You say not to get the FMIC if I dont want it sticking out, what does that mean? I want the look of the intercooler in the front grill. Kinda looks sharp and mean. I need looks to go with performance, just my style.

As far as boost levels, once you get everything (DP, MP, cat-back, IC, fuel pump, ECU), you could run 12-13 PSI safely. After that, you'll need to look at larger injectors, etc.. If you look for larger injectors, you'll want to use a reprogrammable ECU like the PowerFC or something along those lines..
