Lol it also means that you can't get any traction because there is snow on the ground.

My winter tires with stud's don't grip shit on pavement either even before the snow comes.

When you can get traction it makes a huge difference though.

Probably "studs" and "snow" in the same sentence, but you just reminded me of a line a woman I knew years ago used to say.
"First time sex is like snow. You never know how many inches you're going to get or how long it'll last."

Added ThaTruths dyno and Bu-Tangs dyno to first page

Thatruth is running 92octane Ecutek tune by Drift office and Butang is running Toma's BRZedit tune on 91(basemap).

Now that dyno season is coming to a end we are hoping to be able to get back on the dyno with @Toma and see what the experimental compressor yields with a proper tune

Other members DYNO Results:

Ecutek Tuned by Bob @ Drift Office:




BRZ EDIT tuned by Toma using 91octane and safe base map:

Any luck with the MAP resistor plug to avoid needing to tune?

Got it installed. Very easy and very fast. I haven't finalized the location of the on/off switch yet. I think I'll have it cover the dopey passenger indicator.

The ESC puts real nice power down. It's not an abrupt transition at all, it's very "natural" the way it comes on. My last daily driver was an A4, and I've owned a number of turbo cars over the years, and this really isn't very different. I didn't have a lot of time to drive today but plan to drive it a lot tomorrow. I also need to get it tuned.

Great kit Rob. I'll be sending you an email with some install suggestions. The thing that surprised me the most about the install is that the throttle switch didn't need to be adjusted at all. It was perfect right out if the box.

Good work Gary. I find mine best on the right side if the gauge ckustert. For dealer visits I just unstick it and stick it under where the obd2 adapter is.

Needless to say traction in 1st is nonexistent today. It's weird to punch on it at 2500 and have it spin to redline.

It was raining too!

GaryNJ, awesome!
Fresh SLA's need a ' formatting' or 'break in' period.
Who knows how long they have sitting. I can provide this info in detail (link) if anyone is interested.

Cheers! Rob

@Robftss is the designer/engineer of the kit.

The kit is currently under testing by multiple forum users.
