I never said you couldn't boost without a competent tuner, just that it woukdn't be smart. There are tons of threads, accounts, and articles that prove my "flawed pov" but eh.

LOL, it doesn't matter whether or not you intended to drive around without a professsional tune. The end result is the same. Your car isn't going to consciously work better because your intentions were good.

Is your tC a DD? If so, why risk so much? It'd make sense to get a beater car and "practice" on that. But maybe you've got somthing to prove.

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!@
lol..

1. Nobody ever said, not me said im on a budget.. but you know what I am, and most of us are.. but I do budget generously and closer to the right way.. The right way to say the statement is, Boost on a budget.. WISELY and CORRECTLY.. most of us if not all do budget.. maybe even you

2. We never said we wont get a tune, we are running a basemap until we get a tune.. and we get a tune as soon as we have one ASAP. And basemap does make a car work, and you would know if the basemap works for you or not unless you are a moron.. and running a basemap doesnt mean we are ready to be boosting and racing and beating our car, we run it to make the car work and use if we need to.

we pretty much know your point that tuning is a must.. and we agree. but saying driving around untuned is stupid is only good if the driver is stupid, the car is 100% driveable (temporarily) if you know how to and not stupid.. though there is a risk, its part of being a car enthusiast.. you are not a true car enthusiast if you depend always on professionals to work on your car so it would be completely safe.. cause if you are that, then you are better off buying some real sports car and not to mod it at all..

Im not attacking you, just reacting on your statement where part of it we disagree.. so we're good

is like a boost setting you want the truboost to run when you press the switch and it only last for the given time that you had it set.. let say it like putting a switch so you can run some extra boost than the one you set.
