    TUNE TUNE TUNE TUNE. Its the most important aspect of turbocharging, so why cheap out there.... Of course your car isnt going to run right, why would it? Most people who run ebay kits sucessfuly have a good tune.

    Just disconnect a coupler on your charge pipe somewhere until your can get a tune. Your still have the flashy intercooler up front, you'll just have a big vaccum leak. The car is only gonna get worst longer you run it like this bro......

    Your diffinitly on the right track with this budget build, but without a tune sooner or later its not going be so budget.

    I can't wait to see some tuned dyno pulls bro!!!!!!

    Do you have the injectors installed right now?

    Your quality will only be as good as the weakest link in the system......

    If it rolls, runs and drives. It had function. May not be YOUR kind of function but its functional.
