Default Boosted - Thanks PTuning

Whats up everyone just got boosted yesterday I'd like to give PTuning MAJOR props for all the help they have given me. I definitely will be going back to their shop to get all of my stuff installed there.

Im currently running a used Turbonetics Kit minus the turbo which has been replaced with a Precision GT3076R, and have a unichip tuned to 8psi.

Here are some pics, sorry for the cell phone pics but i was kinda enjoying the car all day so didn't have much time to use my camera.

its an 05 with ~78k


Also got a questions if anyone could answer.

The previous owner had an 06 tC and had the chip tuned to what it is at now (8psi). I was wondering if i should still get ir retuned or if it should be fine at where it is at now.

So the original owner replaced the T'netics 50 trim with the Precision GT30? Where did he get the Unichip tuned? If you don't have the same set up as far as supporting performance mods then you'd probably benefit from a retune. Looks like the dumptube was re welded. The first Gens with the flex tubes tended to crack like mine did...

Yes, we also highly recommend a tuning session.
Unfortunately, we do not offer Unichip tuning.
If you wish to have the car tuned by us, you would have to remove the unichip and run either an AEM FIC or eManage.

Also, you may want to run 1-step colder spark plugs as recommended.

Thanks again for the opportunity to work on your tC.

Regards,
Mike @ PTUNING

when you switch to the FIC, hit up this guy for a good price on a plug and play harness:

Glad to hear it bro.

I'd get those plugs in asap. Dunno about tCs, but when I turboed my yaris I had a ton of misfires starting at like 3200 RPMs.
