Anything open source, you're pretty much on your own. The only support you get is the "support" you find online. That picture is hilarious.

If you get a tune from a tuner with OFT I'm pretty sure they'll give you support. If not, that's a tuner problem, not an open source problem.

That picture is hilarious because it implies something that doesn't even make sense based on that picture.

FYI there's nothing 'open source' about OFT, it's just another tuning platform. And they do support/stand behind their product 100%.

@DeliciousTuning sums it up perfectly.

With a device that the end user does the vast majority of the work, people are bound to get confused. 99.9% of problems are user error. It is extremely rare to see a "problem" that has anything to do with the device, or tunes themselves. Grow up, pull your head out of the hole that is in the sand and have a good look around. You should perhaps do a little reading before you make these hilarious claims that make you look a tad....silly. You didn't answer my question, care to try again?[/QUOTE]

Hah - I suspect Mike is pretty aware of what he's talking about - doesn't mean it's unbiased fact though. As much awe I have for his driving skills, I have even more awe for ability to crank out BS

Do I need to upgrade my stock radiator for my JR supercharger + oil cooler? Koyo? Skunk2? Mishimoto? I've heard bad reviews for Koyo?

Thanks

In probably 90+% of the cases, it's not necessary. Stock radiator is good enough.

I never changed mine or needed one. Stock does a good job keeping it cool

Are you having heat problems?

I've never seen anyone NEED an upgraded radiator, without having significantly increased output beyond CARB levels.

Thank you all for your help. My JR kit comes in the mail tomorrow. I'm excited. I just like to maximize purchases up front if I need to.

Thank you all!

Here's the common upgrade paths.

- Oil cooler (if you canyon or track, you should have this)

- Flex fuel, injectors, fuel pump, and flex fuel tune (if you crave more power, and have e85 available readily)

- Headers, overpipe, front pipe, custom tune (if you want more power, without ethanol)

- Radiator + fans (if you track AND run E85 AND have headers/front pipe)

And BBK to slow it all down

Owners: how often do you guys clean the air filter? And particular way I should do this? There are a few videos on YouTube that I can follow for cleaning /oiling K&N air filters.
