Can you explain to me what you mean by tuning , do you mean as the tuningengines as computerwise, or gear ratios or what?

When i get that engine i will install it , with help from myone of my dads cousins who has a auto- shop . He could probaly tune it for mecus im thinking he knows how if he has the equipment.

Thanks

This is not something your average shop can do. I was talking about a/f ratio tuning. Any old retard can make a base tune, or even a decent tune. Take the AMS EVO for instance, tuning was the difference between 600awhp, and 1000awhp.

If you want over 650awhp you are going to need a single turbo. Simple as that.

What are your exact goals, and budget?

I have seen all the TT setups available, and in order to make any more power, you need to have every single, tiny little supporting mod, and a good tune to make more than that.

Oh yeah...tell me about these single turbo setups that you speak of. There is only one "kit" available, all the others are custom one-off setups.

You talk like they are common in the 3S world...show some too me. Show some proof to the thread starter that a single is the best way to go when making big power. I know of 1 big power single set up, several in the works, and lots of unfinished projects.

If you want your car to be as fast (and reliable) as the ones you listed, it's not going to be cheap...
