"We generally do not recommend installation on Turbo-charged models. There is no problem with supercharged models. If you have factory turbo charger, we do not recommend this product for you."

what?!

I'd stay away from this black magic.

Friend like a year ago purchased the same exact one for his 2008 tC. I told him he just wasted his money and it doesnt give him power. When he got it and plugged it in, His car felt faster but on a dyno it made no power. After some trial by error to figure out why his car actually felt faster we came to the conclusion that all it does is enhance throttle control to make it feel like your car gained power. Just get a visconti tune! its worth the money.
