you know adam, i was hoping you would do the boost tubes before the catback since you were already installing the rest of the "induction system" anyways. only reason why im saying this is because thanks to Jacemini, i have your entire "induction system" which is the boost tube, inlet tube, intake, and fmic. yes i do know this is for the 09 jcw but its just for my benefit :D but keep up the great work. i think i can speak for everyone and say that everyone appreciates it.

We have ran more than 20psi on the stock turbo, and things seem to be holding up just fine. But its not 20psi across the entire RPM band.

It came down to time and that we already have some good results with them on the other car. But in do time you will see them! The install isn't quite that easy just because we were installing the rest of the induction system. Its a pain actually! But it will be done!

yeah thats what i figured when you guys didnt do the boost tubes. it took me a good amount of time to install as well. thats why i dont mind at all really. i figure if you did it, i would know what i got out of the tubes after all the cuts and scraps (lol) and it would allow present and future customers to know the huge benefits of aquiring that mod.

again thanks for the reply

Adam,

Is it possible to program the DME to not light up the instrument panel with the CEL I have every start as a result of the Alta downpipe?
