I know what you meant. I just found those on vortex and wanted to share them. But your right, the chip does have some good features, but all you have to do is take out the mbc and your "stock."

the only good/bad thing about doing this is while I was looking around at things, when they replaced the timing belt by previous owner at pro shop they didnt secure the upper cover spring clips and it has rubbed the timing belt(they also left several wiring harnes uncliped in their hold downs... I also question if they changed the tensioner/roller I looked down there and from what I see they dont look very new. I called the shop where it had been done, (I did verify TB job with them prior to purchase as well at the consent of previous owner, so I questioned it no further)very prim & proper place and kindly asked them about thier service history on the car he did again verify that the timing belt had been replaced at a cost of $1050 I specifically asked if this included the tensioner, roller, and waterpump, he stated waterpump was not part of thier service of timing belt unless specifically asked for by client. and as far as roller and tensioner whe said depends on what kit they had in stock at time and what the client wanted, I said how about this one you did for the previous owner. He said he had given enough "personal information " out and suggested I bring the vehice in for inspection at the shop rate of $95 per hour min of 1 hour if i was concerned. I asked about the cover rubbing, he stated that all warranties are to origional client only and non-transferable. and ended the call.. What BS........... so I guess I'll be doing a timing belt soon to be safe, but i will do a complete kit unlike them... just goes to show even if you check on history it might be inaccurate, and just because a shop services high end cars(I believe they service Bently also) doesnt mean you are getting what you need or expected. reguardless of price. Damn shame

Oh yeah, easily, the K03S starts to overheat at 19, but you can run 21 for say a dyno run;-)

Since I'm going BT later, I'm ordering my 4 dollars worth of diods in a few minutes and I've already got the Modshack Boost controller, I'm selling my CDA intake and going with theVelocity stacksetup with a heatshield by me out of fiberglass, then hopefully my boost guage will be in and I'm good to go I'll run 17 daily and 19 for track days, 18 for the "Rings" of Germany

I'm probably going t3/t4 and different exhaust mani w/ Front mount and big downpipe in within the next year, I'll go Revo BT and SPS3 at that time, until then, I'll roll out with the Manual Crew
