I can't tune them.. but I'm going to learn. Everyone learns one way or another. Wonder why no one respects imports?

you have to take one off and tune them one at a time. Once you tune the left bank go ahead and take it off and go to the right. Pretty simple.

So let me get this straight. You don't have the money to properly get the car tuned, because you're a responsible adult who can't allocate the money for said tune, due to other financial obligations...but you do have the money to try to turbo a Scion and you would rather spend money on rebuilding a blown motor, than getting the car tuned in the first place.

Sounds incredibly logical to me.

I've written tunes for my 636 Ninja and never blew its motor.
