TVS & E85 suggestions and questions

I finially got a TVS and right now I'm trying to finish getting together the stuff I need to make this happen.

Parts I have:
Header back exhaust
Wideband, Interceptor
CAI
H/E, dual pass, opt. b
#80's (zrated89's 12.0 good luck injectors)
TVS

Parts I need:
BRFPS
Phenolic spacer
LS4
New pump since I'm a 2005, any brand that is good with E?
Pump re-wire kit
Unknown pulley size, depends how low I can go.
Tune
Anything I am missing?


Any helpful feedback would be great.

Have you used it? Just wondering because I heard you can tune the touchiness out. If it's really as bad as most say, then I don't want it. Thats another thing I was looking for input on.

Well since carstedt has talked to people about drivability with the LS4, he knows what it feels like to drive one..

Tlk to sum with it, theyll tell u its touchy in 1st gear but if u dont suck at driving a manual it is driveable and the responsivness is crazy..if u cant drive very well from a dead stop they say its not for u but all it does is take time to get used to just like anything else

I wasn't saying either..

But I do have one. I like it. JK. I really like it. The first week or two sucks with it. It's embarrassing when you have people with you. You'll get used too it and you'll drive it the same as you always have. And you'll have much faster throttle response. Win win.

You don't have experience with it, eh? Sounds like you're trying to say you do in above post....

As i jus stated it takes time lik any other mod in these cars is this really that hard for u to understand? Hav i driven 1? No, but im sure as i stated before it takes time unless ur just that shitty of a driver cuz all it is is throttle control to deal with how much more responsive it is
