Tuning?? lol jk. right now ive got the s-afc set to 0% correction, and since im running the same fuel set-up as the star kit, tuning isnt a NECESSITY right now. im gonna get a wide band and bigger injectors and tune it with the s-afc until i get my MSnS. but since im only running 3-4 psi right now, im fine. once i get the intercooler hooked up im gonna crank her up to 7-8 and tune her there.
keep it coming guys

I like it. There is much joy in piecing something together and seeing it actually work. Congratu-fucking-lations, you are now doomed like the rest of us to chase that boost dragon for just a little more.

Haha yep i hear ya. i made my own boost controller the other night so i can raise the boost when the IC gets hooked up.

Nice man. Very creative. I pieced mine together as well but I also upgraded everything along they way and it cost me a little more! LOL. Good job man. I built my manifold almost EXACTLY the same way but I used a little bigger pipe and my turbo flange is in the middle.
