Dang I guess I have been away from a few days, I login to check up on Justin and see the last 3 pages being a ____ing competition...FTL!

I feel where Justin is coming from; he want to have the ability to take the car back if he runs into any issues or sees something is off, not to mention the temperature, humidity and elevation is quite a bit different in VA than FL.

That's a risk i'm willing to take after a $600 dyno-tune that ran like complete poop, I got a car back that was completely poop I wouldn't go back the place I went for anything so I will make the trip to Ptuning in August for my tune.

I wish there was somewhere in Atlanta or Alabama that I can actually put some faith in to get stuff done right.

Apparently E-Tuning is the new thing. Give it a shot with crush if you don't have any shops nearby.

I've been e-tuning since the turbo went on and got the car back. It is great but it is still not a substitute for a tuner right there with the car. There is but so much you can see from the scan gauge, it doesn't have real data logging capabilities so you can see your STFT and LTFT in regards to the load and RPM. You have to tr to remember that stuff then make adjustments. If you're willing to learn and have an OBDII scanner capable of datalogging then it is by far better a dynotune but I don't have the time anymore with school starting back in a month and I just want my car to be a reliable DD so off to Ptuning I go in a couple weeks.

If you don't want to throw a CEL you do. It checks the cat for its efficiency.

I'm not sure about how the size of your exhaust would effect the pressure going to the WG.

you may see a small boost spike during spool up due to the turbo not overcoming as much back pressure but it shouldn't be much to write home about if you are coming from a 2.5 already.
