I would say the chances of blowing it are lower then that, I would say maybe .1% is accurate. but not going to colder plugs and running crap gas will increase the chances of detanation. That being said, If i owned a company that put out turbo kits for the tc platform, I would also say that fuel managment is required at any amount of boost, just like all the companys do now, because you are going to get the people that are careless with the kit like the reasons I already stated.... or lets say a company like dezod or TT said that they made a kit that was safe at 6 psi without managment, whats to stop somebody from bumping it up to 8-9 psi, and blowing their motor, then blame the company that made said kit and demanding a new engine, saying that it was running at 6 psi when the engine blew....if that makes any sense

Hey Paul, is it possible to make the Alpha kit compatible with VRD fogs? I have come to know that much kits are not compatible with VRD fogs, simply because of the piping. I understand that your strongest competitor right now is Ptuning and they offer a kit compatible with fogs. So yea, just a heads up.

I also have VRD fogs w/ S1 and no problem although I just had new IC piping made out of aluminum and a blow-thru MAF setup.
