I told you to boost it in the first place. But noooo, juice was the way to go. I told you would eventually come around and you said no way. Look at ya now. I should look up those posts. Hahaha

I would still go juice if someone could tune my car for a 300 shot but no one can. I've asked several people and some won't go over 150 shot. So I don't have too many options.

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

That doesn't make any sense. If it can be tuned on a 150 shot then why not a 300? That's like saying it can be tuned on 10lbs of boost but not 20lbs.

Unnecessary risk. He's not a shop owner. He doesnt have to tune if he doesnt want to. He as the luxury of picking and choosing what cars he wants to work on. With the way people get online and blast shops when they dont know what they are talking about ( cuz if they did, they would just tune it themselves) there is no reason to take a chance.

Shops get blast when they fuck up and when they don't own up to their mistakes. And don't think he doesn't tune people's cars that hasn't blast shops cause he does. So next excuse.

Have you talked to Manny yet about TT'n your car? I'm sure he can make it run well. That kit on Kevin's car made 1249rw on the previous car. Ran and drove like stock until it was in boost. I think you will be much happier with that, just don't put it on any super sticky tires and you should be happy with it.

Yes I have and he's very anxious to do it. He said at 15psi I'll be at 1100rwhp.

Sounds like a winner. And fun. Your car doesn't have too much compression does it? Have no clue what you ended up going with.

I'm at 12.5:1 compression and no it's not to much cause I'm at 23 degrees timing.

This car makes like 600+ HP more than the JPC Turbo Coyote and only runs marginally faster...albeit it is also heavier.
