      Ive only had tuning experience with both opposites; Safc-2 and MegaSquirt. I'll let Ryan handle that one lol.

      As far as Intercooler goes, we might have two different charge piping systems... One for those with an aftermarket front bumper, and one for those retaining the factory bumper. In either case, Trimming may be necessary.

      We will retain the factory crash bar (the actual "bumper". what i was referring to as the bumper earlier is actually the airdam.) or we may see the possibilities of introducing a custom tubular crash bar to allow use of a huge FMIC by clearing up dead space.

      Remember, what we are going to build is what you can take and run at the track and own the big boys, not just something to put around in and go "vrooooooooom pssshhht" like a moron so dont expect it to be developed around weak/cheap parts. Expect a basic turbo kit (mani, downpipe, turbo, 38mm wastegate and oil lines) to be around $1400-$1600

      Not a bad price, really, considering what Alpine charges for a Stage 1 for the Elantra (my wife's DD).
      You need to work with Unichip to develop a piggyback!!!

      This is fantastic news. Do you really hope to get this together for under 2 grand??? I have my fingers crossed.

      yes, but remember, it doesnt have an intercooler or charge piping. This is the basic kit.

      Any chance of a nipple on the manifold for an antilag system? I want my turbo to last a day

      In all seriousness, though... what's the list of stuff we need to get together ourselves?

      BOV, boost gauge, fuel management, charge piping... this is what I can think of off the top of my head.

      I just don't want anyone to pick it up and then be totally dumbfounded as to why _____ wasn't included.
      Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far the wall moves after you hit it.

      i think you just nailed the list actually. Our kit will come with manifold, downpipe, oil lines, turbo, wastegate and wastegate exhaust system. As soon as we get our new bumper figured out, we will then offer a charge piping/intercooler kit that comes with the bumper for a superior fit.
