Sounds good. Yeah, definitely get the car on the dyno to tune timing. You'll often find that street tuning alone can often result in exceeding MBT during parts of the first 4-5K of the powerband.

Justin, our lead tech, has been using the same WMI pump and system for the past 7 years. It's seen use on his xA with the Blitz SC, non-intercooled Greddy Turbocharger, and now the PTUNING Turbo and Built Motor (stock cylinder head) combo.

His car currently makes 350+WHP on our DD Dyno with 93 octane pump and WMI. For the first 3-4 years, he was running just -20F blue windshield washer fluid, but has recently switched over to a 50/50 custom blend.

His xA currently has 147,000+ miles on the odometer. He estimates that his WMI pump has seen over 120K of use so far. So yeah, WMI can be very reliable.
Same here. I have multiple systems that have been running without failure for nearly 10 years and another running on 4 years without failure @ 70k miles. As long as you are maintaining your system it has the potential to outlast your engine. When I refer to maintenance I just mean cleaning your nozzles from time to time. I did have a SNOW boost referenced module that had a failure right out of the box years ago but I caught it before install since I bench test all the systems before installation. It was not progressively PWMing the pump but rather just full injection regardless of the ramp up settings. SNOW replaced it no questions asked. AEM modules DO NOT GET WET or they can do some funny things. I learned this the hard way before I realized they are not weather packed for spraying the engine bay out haha (My fault). After it dried out out though no issues at all. I believe somewhere in their instructions it even warns you about getting their module wet. Long story short, the systems don't really seem to have a shelf life even under daily abuse.
