John's tuning is priced by John as well, although a 'turnkey' solution would be ideal for many so hopefully they'll package them together. The other option of course is buying the parts and finding a local tuner to tune the car instead but I'd venture a guess that many would be happy enough with a safe tune that can be refined via datalogging and emailing back and forth with John until it's dialed in.

Luckily for me whatever mods I decide to go with Mr. Visconti be local for moi

I just meant for the tune and cable. I'm not worried about the price of the Turbo kit. I just want to know where the tune will come in at.

Was it posted what turbo is being used? What the A/R is?


I'm curious what kinda energy this motor is putting off to produce that kinda power curve.

Technically Andrewtech doesn't tune anything; they get Jermain from Turbo-XS down the street to do their tunes. Allegedly, he's VERY good.

IAG used to fly down a guy from Chicago who was pretty well known as well.

Buy this kit, take it to local tuner (Jtran Studio for me I guess?), have them install and work up the ECU tune? I see most tuning shops also offer their own forced induction options as well. Would this be an insult to them to take this AP kit developed by another tuning shop to them for installation? Just looking for guidance on proper protocal. Thanks!

JTran will install and tune this kit for less than $1500, and they are VERY good at their job. I've seen them tune 1200hp GTR's, boosted 350Z's, 370Z's, the list goes on. Johnny KNOWS what he's doing with boost and he's got the most accurate dyno in town.

I only bought the car a month ago and yet the only things I can think about are...what will the STI offering look like...do I really NEEEEED a warranty!?....how much will this kit cost...

[Don@Accelerated]

I'm working on the pricing right now. Obviously i'll be testing more first.

Someone start a list of persons interested. Id like to see who is a real buyer that would be interested in an introductory offer.

Working on a driving video in the morning. Was raining here today and I had much to do on another few cars.

I wanna be on said list. I am definitely interested. Very, very interested.


Did I mention I really wanted this?

I work for a Toyota dealer and would LOVE to be able to market the aftermarket capabilities to certain buyers!

You should get them to retain the warranty with it installed

I'll offer quantity and wholesale pricing as usual.

Put me on the list you speak of. Like I said, I just had to replace an AC Unit in my house, so rebuilding my savings, if I have the money, I'm definitely going for this.
