Very interesting! Very rare! I dont understand about the tuning though. Youre def. gunna run lean with stock tuning, maybe not detonate with only7psi, but the mixture isnt gunna be right. Maybe the GIAC 2.8 chip would pair well with this setup since all that chip really does is make you run more rich... But then there is nothing to pull timing when boost kicks in... i dunno but it sounds exciting. Someone buy it!

OR you do what cool people do, find a dyno, and tune your car like you did in the old days...except with a computer

What is the stock flow meter good till? How many CFM of air anyone know? It should just up the amount of fuel for the amount of gas dumped, but its all relevant to how smart the computer is...

"They" don't, hence it being a custom setup. In other words you arent gunna find any place that manufactures it as a kit. There will be some custom work that needs to be done so make sure you know what you are getting into if you bid on it. The fact that it was never dyno'd is not encouraging... Who knows what kind of power it actuallymakes. Would be fun to find out though, wouldnt it?

wow, i would not trust it.... if tuning was not necessary and the kit was indeed a smooth running kit, than why would he sell it??

theres no intercooler, like onepoint8 said, if your gonna get this make sure you know exactly what your getting into..

The only reason it's not running rich or lean is due to the turbo pressurizing the air before the maf sensor and the low boost pressure. Who knows what rpm he checked the a/f ratio at.

Where's TomRitt at? We need him to do the testing. If he can't blow it up, no one can.
