I have a pretty much stock 8. What would be the benefits of an EMS on a stock 8? I'm looking to get some noticeable gains, but don't really have real direction in which to go. I've looked at all the standard bolt-ons, but the consensus is that they don't really do all that much. Other than forced induction, what are some viable options for noticeable power? Thanx in advance.

Contact Charles R. Hill, he is our NOS specialist. this seems to be the only other route to go.

An EMS on the 8 can yield some improvement, but not a lot. I think some of the N/A people are seeing 20 or 30 HP over stock.
Certainly more than an exhaust (+3 HP at best) or an intake (where you actually loose power).
NOS is an option (if you can live with the legal and physical limitations).
FI is still the best HP to $ investment.

An ems is a good investment in the long term if you intend to keep modding . Eventually you will just have to go FI and having the ems already installed and working well overcomes one of the hurdles before you start .
