Default Godspeed Intercooler Kit, Autotech FSI Pump, Forge DV. Im on the fence about the FSI

b/c of the cam seal problem but does that actually happen often. Do you think the combo of APR 93/AWE Catback/TP/Carbonio/Intercooler/Forge/FSI Pump should give me max performance out of the K03? Trying to stay under 1k so will do all the work myself. The intercooler i will do on my friends lift, the DV should be easy and the FSI pump my dad will do for me. Anybody running an Autotech FSI pump? it seems pretty legit.

Default Is the Autotech FSI pump compatible with APR software?

Are you getting the software update to compliment the fuel pump upgrade? I think that, more than anything, will determine whether you're optimized for your hardware setup.

Default I would call APR first to check on the fuel pump

They're software is calibrated for a stock fuel pump currently, and I'm not sure if an upgraded fuel pump will work with the software. Do you have upgraded fuel injectors? If not, I would do that before a fuel pump. Otherwise, your plan sounds good. FYI, you don't need a lift to install the FMIC, just ramps will do. And above all, just remember that often times trying to get the max performance out of a K03 may lead to a blown turbo. So don't go overboard with the tuning. GL

injectors arent the bottleneck. The fuel pump is.
