I upgraded from a
1g maf to a 2g maf,
450s to 880s,
14b to evo316g,
2g exhaust manifold to evo3 exhaust manifold,
TMO stg3 chip to burned chip from shane to comp maf n injectors...

Still running stock sidemount, and stock fuel pump, its running good enough to DD, but really lacking in gittup? Should it be normal til i get fuel pump and tune? Or should i be running a lot better? I dont want to set up a date with shane for nothin? Will i need a fmic? Bigger exhaust? Etc... Before tuning? Im really shootin for the "stock" look!

So im guessing its not worth going to shane for a tune without a fmic, bigger exhaust, walbro etc...

I recommend you size every part of your setup to work together.

Your side mount pending boost is hurting the setup, I would say 2.5" exhaust min, and a walbro 255hp is a min for a small project like this. The 880's are big but the chip takes care of that.

I would do a good sized FMIC, exhaust, clutch, fuel pump, link or similar, and get it tuned so you know were your at.
