Corey I know you are biased towards the AP because you put one on your car and it got slower…but, I think the best power mod for him right now would be an AP stage one map and a catback. Easily 40+ chp and 30+ ctq. This could be had for under $600 dollars if you know where to look. Also, you could install one without the other so your but dyno wouldn’t have to wait. ---
