What is on your 3.5L Ecoboost wish list???

Even though the 3.5L Ecoboost platform has been released for almost five years, there are still quite a few bits and pieces I know that people are waiting to be released. Here is my short list:
-Upgraded fuel pump
-Upgraded injectors
I just really don't want to go down the road of upgrading turbos or running meth, so I am just waiting for that day when I check on the forum and there is the news I have been waiting for.
So what is everybody else waiting for???

Correct me if I am wrong, but it is my understanding that the there is more room on the stock turbos for increased horsepower/performance if there was more fuel available beyond what the stock system can deliver.

boost is where  it's at ... 20 psi with stock turbos ,  nope .....

Well if you want to run E85 on stock turbos (about 60 more HP than 93+ meth) then you want fuel.
For the trucks I predict 500WHP on stock turbos with E85 and a tune, we'll see this year I hope.
 
My list =]

Non catted down pipes
Cat back exhuast
Window tint
Tune
Springs
Wheels and tires (i swear the flower power wheels get uglier each time i look at them)

That should about do it for the sho
 
Short term? Maintenance.
Long term? Who knows.

Trying to stave off the mod bug. We will see how long I can stretch it.

I was thinking about a chin spoiler. Not something crazy low and stretched like the fast and furious stuff. But something with a little more style and aggressive look.. Maybe a smaller stretched lip and an open mesh grill insert??

If (or when) alternate fueling solutions become available, I would question the necessity of "needing" an alternate fuel altogether.

Whether one chooses the E85 route, or Methanol.

It's worth mentioning however, that previously, 4DR has reported fuel issues, running with his own mix of E85.

As in he was running out of fuel.

Currently, as of my last dyno 3 weeks ago, I still have ZERO fuel issues when supplementing with Methanol.

I have been told 500WHP is attainable on my current setup, w/o needing any fuel upgrades, but I have chosen to err on the side of a "somewhat reserved tune".

So the ability is there currently, albeit supplementing with Methanol, in lieu of a user concocted mix of E85, on the current, STOCK fuel system.

It will certainly be interesting to see what's in store down the road, for sure. Regardless of this ongoing debate/argument.

I will however caution members from running consistent 20lbs of boost on the tiny stock turbos.

Unless of course, those choosing to do so, are desiring to speed up the failure process.
