    a few newbie questions

    Just bought a few parts for the car...Bought a Trick flow streat heat intake, a set of bosch 42's,an 80 pro m and a Acufab 75mm thorttle body and a power pipe...My mods are as follows stock heads ported and polished,E303, novi1k bought a 3" pullie(from Ian) but haven't droped it in yet,full exhuast 410's AOD, 255 pump and other little things...A friend of mine is droping all this parts in but he's knowlodge about stangs isn't that great..Im bringing the car to LaRocca to get it tuned and having him burn me a chip on August 20th...My question is should i remove the FMU before i bring it to him? will the car even run with out the fmu...I didn't have a chance to speak to LaRocca when i called, he's secretary answered the phone and didn't want to ask her...Also do i need to run the EGR spacer with my new throttle body?
    what kind of numbers should i be expecting...Sorry im new to all this just bought the car a few months ago


    Thank you
    Nick

    You're gonna need the EGR as it has the mounting point for the throttle cable, also if you didn't buy the matching EGR (75mm) then you're gonna need to pick up one that matches your new T-body.

    You won't need the FMU with the 42's, now you may have some idle/driveability issues with the 42's but nothing that a tuner can't fix.
