Here is the kit in question in case everyone is wondering. Thats like me buying a 2013 FRS and you saying "So you essentially purchased the cheapest sports car on the market for reliability and cost?" Well yes, I did, well before we knew how reliable and great it was. SBD has had a good rep so far and I feel as if its a good quality kit. If i wanted you guys to pick me apart and argue among each other about FI kits i would have titled the post "Uhhh what turbo kit should i get". There is no changing my decision as i stated in the original post, for now I am wondering about how to tune the damn thing and maybe some pointers about tuning.
The best pointer I can give you is to get a different kit.

I am just clueless on the whole custom tuning thing. The thought was to buy a capable setup and then run lower boost and a safer tune.
You're constantly contradicting yourself. You've done research, but haven't done research based on your questions. You want the best reliability, but purchased based on best price. You claim to know how a turbocharger works, but have no understanding of tuning (which goes hand in hand).

Are you ready to become another statistic? Are you aware you purchased a kit that's a blatent knock-off? Have you ever used a cheap chinese turbo before?
