Its overkill for anything that doesn't pop it.. Your stock head gasket should do up to about 350ft/lbs of torque... Its just not smart to replace good components..

Enthalpy tune and GT28 of any flavor and you have reliability..

Just tell Scott what you've got and he'll take care of it. You won't really need a SAFC.

I use an SAFC on top of my Enthalpy tune, but mainly for the Dec air fuction. I think the ECU tune alone would make close to the same power I make now..

You shouldn't get an SAFC without getting a wideband, so you are back to $400+ which is almost the same cost as the Enthalpy tune.

Power and reliability go hand-in-hand..

You should read on tuning a little. It will make decisions like this much easier.. I can't possibly post every answer in one post nor can I post everything you need to know.

Besides that, its not always the best idea to just listen to someone else the whole time...
