Two-step is awesome.
boosting sounds like a jet engine.
didnt get to go to dyno because my cars no registered so i borrowed my grandfathers dealer plates and we road tuned it for a couple hours.
its incredible at only 14 psi. it hits full boost around between 4.5k and 5k, the power is great. Both my efi certified tuner friend and i were shocked at how responsive the turbo is. its no ct26 but we expected worse. traction is going to be a problem, i'm forced to go buy new wider wheels and tires. but we mad a nice map for driving around in very safe full boost conditions. its not optimal for power, but great for knowing nothing is on the edge of breaking. were gunna try to get it to a dyno to really tune it asap once the registry is open.
