for a mild/lumpy id say 1636 also. i have the 1004 (old version of the 1636) and its shocking at idle. but the 1636 is good at idle for the same if not better power..

ive got a t5 manual with slight shaved head, i only want it just noticeable and with miner mods to do to the ecu, the mechanical side of it is easy, but when you ask a shop attendant they either feed you crap, or they try to rip you off with the wrong product, thats why im asking in here, feel like i can trust you guys.

speak to Jim Mock motor sport, they are the 4.0L specialists and I have run a 14.8 with a miss match exhaust and DEV 4 cam.
