How much of a difference is it just a pill vs a pill+aem intake+TBE?
From the feedback I've seen, there's a big difference between just the boost pill and the fully-loaded version. However, I've personally been told that the AEM intake isn't worth it, not much of a difference over the stock intake with a K&N filter.

Just do the boost pill and turbo back, flash the V2.7 TBE basemap and have fun.

@BravoZero: kinda like getting the UR long down pipe to the short...200$ is not worth the extra 5-10hp?

I think he's saying the AEM intake is kind of like the long downpipe that UR makes. It's not worth the $200 for 5-10 more hp.

I would love to see third party testing thats not in cahoot with the mfg to prove those 5-10 hp claims. Also 5-10hp gain is not necessarily 5-10whp.
Jumbaco, jumbaco.

Eh, I dunno if he was taking a stab at my comments compared my thread over on EvoM.

True. If something like that netted 10 whp/wtq or more for $200, then it's worth it. I have yet to see proven documentation that adding a short downpipe to the existing o2 housing on the TD04 turbo nets any reasonable gains.
