Well I am currently building a full bottom end for the coming summer but I am looking for a quick tune to run for the time being.

My current mods are;
Custom FMIC 2.5" piping with 24*6*2.5 core
P&P ********** Intake Manifold
Vibrant 3" exhuast
Aem CAI converted to SRI
Turbosmart BOV venting to atmosphere
Maf moved to hot pipe about 6-8" from the tb
Awr front motor mount and side mount inserts

Right now my car runs very well but I know there is more power to be had for sure. The afc on my autometer lightshow guage shows rich when I stomp the pedal and stays rich all the way till redline. The only time it really bounces is when im cruising around in traffic.

I currently have a new clutch on order cuz mine slips so I might just have that installed as well for now and swap it to the other engine later. We'll see though.

Im hoping for some input with some people with similar mods on where to go next? I was thinking maybe a knock sensor, wideband o2, and somkind of afc. Any other ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated...

THANKS EVERYONE!

Forgot to add...

All of my vaccum lines will be changed next week when I get my oil changes at my local tuner shop (owned by friends). With my current setup my car boosts a solid 9psi till redline with no major surgess in the power band and I reach 9psi around 3000rpms +or- maybe 100/200rpms depending on the weather. The turbo runs like a champ now and was just replaced by the dealership at 30000 kms and im now at 47000kms...(woohoo for destroying the stock clutch in less then 50000kms crew...yes we are special!)

well our afc would probably be your best temporary bet....though I'm not going to lie and say our afc was designed to be used with a fully built motor, at that point I would go stand alone...and from what you say you just want something to help out on the stock block, which is exactly what our afc was designed to do...there is a special on them right now in the sale section of the msp forums...
