You know it!

I'm about to order my gauges too, but I'm going to wait a bit for those. Only need to buy boost, oil pressure, wideband, F/IC harness, and pay for a tune and I'm finished :D. So 'hopefully' June 28th my turbo will be going on the car.

Driving around untuned is pretty stupid. I would seriously stop driving until I could get one....

phresh47

what's your advise with my situation and java? we dont have tuners in our area, decent/good tuners are like 6 hrs away.. java on the other hand haha dont have any on his island we are running basemaps though and staying out of boost as possible

any other good tuners you've heard off in houston? fastlane hasnt called me back might be so busy, turbochargers.com isnt available till the end of the month

java09

until you understand what we mean by un tuned.. shhhhhh

we meant not professionally tuned..

java09

technically im in the same situation.. i have someones tune and someone that knows how to tune the greddy e-manage.. so technically i am tuned just not professionally.. make 250whp at 8 psi with 15.5-11.5 afrs.. shiiiieetttttttt thats conservative making good power on a back yeard street tune..

lol. The most common phrases uttered by those who know about turbos are:

1) No boosting on a budget
2) Turbo kits don't blow motors, tuners do...

No two cars are the same when it comes to boost, so using someone else's base map isn't that effective. You don't have to take my word for it though. I'd seriously save the dough and get to a quality tuner ASAP. What's the point of being boosted when you can use it without fear of blowing your motor?

That's tEh rIcE!!1111!@

java09

ive been boosting for 8 months and no blown motor with a tune moron just not dyno tuned... listen up... the person who tuned my car knows how to tune it jsut wasnt done on a dyno... i have not one fear of blowing my motor when boosting..

and you call my car rice.. who the F*ck are you... mang...

java09

also read next time... its not a lack of funds or not wanting to get tuned... there are none in hawaii.. you work with what you got and what i got it a friend who knows how to street tune.. sorry ehhh cant just drive to a tuner and jsut get tuned...

Soulquarian

Honestly man, that's something you think about before buying a turbo kit. Whatever, if you can drive in boost as much as you like safely, what's the point?

That's like paying a hot girl to be your arm candy with the condition that you can't "touch" her lol.

I'm out. Good luck with the homey tune...
