I'd say these "big turbo kits" have more potential for "damaging a car" than a TTDA or ****...c'mon.

Default Yes.. ruining your turbo, running your engine too lean, etc...

Causing engine knock, etc.

Yes... damage.

Taking software and turning up the boost another 50% beyond which it was designed for with a device not made of componenets sufficiently designed to withstand use under such conditions.

Default Totally untrue. These kits were designed to operate under those parameters

while you're trying to hack and trick sensors and programmed controls, and counting on everything else to just "deal".

Default Which kits? I see repeated postings

from folks with these big kits from the uber tuners where the car never seems to run right. Kinda makes you wonder where all the money is going.

Default Depends how wild you go.. but for considering MS stage 3 costs $680.. it's the same difference in

price.
