Anyone went the FI route?
I was looking through some posts and I think I only saw @BoostFed86 was boosted.
Anybody else? Also, what did you chose, SC or TC? For what reasons and brand? I am looking to go turbo but I wanted to see if anyone here has any advice. Mahalo in advance guys |

Personally. I already have a a full exhaust, so i will be going with a Kraftwerks supercharger next year. But if you are starting from scratch it seems majority high powered cars are turbo. Except i think Evasive's?
Im sure someone will chime in with a more technical answer. Rotrex sounds pretty dope as well. |

Cool, thanks for reply, I will be starting from scratch (well kinda I have the Trd catback and the cai) so I'm thinking turbo.
Would you know of a place in Hawaii that can tune FI Fa20s? Last edited by Musickmixxer90; 09-16-2014 at 01:59 AM. |

This is all preferential, but I believe turbo is the way to go as you have the option of going with a bigger turbo later if you max out . Overall, most kits costs about the same it really depends on what you're looking for. Instant low end power you want super, high end power you want turbo. And I believe most guys here have been data logging and sending it to the mainland for tune through ECUTek.

yeah, I kinda got my mind set on turbo. Would you happen to know what brands of turbos other people are running? I was looking into the Ptuning and AVO stage 1 turbos, but does anyone have experience with either one of these, good or bad?

Look in the forced induction section. Plenty of info on it and plenty of owners of both Turbos.

No Problem. Not trying to be rude or anything, just would rather have you look on that and feedback of people that actually have the turbo rather than us speculating.
