I think you have a typo here. THE KIT IS $3995 LESS ANY DISCOUNT I CAN GET US.

Least expensive place for the tire monitor is Vulcan Tire in Utah Vulcan

On other technical issues TAZ, I was speaking with Darren @ Dawes and he had some interesting info. On basic systems with like 5 lbs boost many times you don't even have to tune or change injectors. Just turn up fuel pressure. Of course it depends on what you want to accomplish. As you say there's a wide range of options from basic "wake it up" boost to screamers. The nice part about this system is you CAN just buy the kit, install it yourself in 5-6 hours & you're turbocharged for $3995. The most you might want to do is have someone put a scope on it & turn up the fuel pressure a little if needed. My Dawes gauges have already told me that at WOT in open loop H2s are really on the rich side. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>


1-Isn't "open loop" a warm up program? The PCM should go "closed loop" upon the temperature sensor reading 180ish degrees. Does that effect air/fuel ratio?

2-Increasing injector pressure drops fuel pump flow dramaticly. Has the turbo company wide band fuel monitored such a mod? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>Current 02 sensors have heaters & go into closed loop usually in less than a minute. They remain in closed loop with the PCM except at WOT where preset PCM program takes over. It's then in open loop (02 sensors not affecting PCM) while at WOT.

We're talking about turning up the fuel pump pressure regulator and yes there is a limit to this.
