Looks good! Go easy on her, do some research on breaking in a new turbo car. Probably don't want to boost very long, does it have an OEM PSI gauge?

My opinion is irrelevant, but I would have boosted the lude. Your payments were high for a 7 year old car, however.

I was surprised to find the powerband to be so short on those. But I guess if you're fine with that, good purchase.

I read the manual and the only thing to be careful of is don't sit on the turbo for long, give it a 30 second cool down, and vary your speed.

Nothing too much that I haven't done that much.

No OEM PSI gauge though. I would love to see the PSI go :sad:

I just found out though that in the arm rest is another cigarette lighter for power, and an AUX input for the stereo. bye bye iTrip and showing cable to power it.

I didn't want to boost aftermarket because factory boost is warranted and tuned specifically to that car
