And Fox your tC is sexy looking forward to watching it in 10' at some events, if I can make it to them.
Also what battery do you have? I hate my big bulky stock one.

I never heard anything about the intake position effecting it because of temp I'll let PTUNING say the specifics if there are any. The kit comes with the intake positioned there and Im sure they arent putting it there to cause a problem for owners.

Ptuning can tune any kit. Its in the Management and they know the ultimate well, they ran it in their Time Attack TC last season.

Most people go either Odyssey or Braille. I'd lean towards the Braille battery. NST (site sponsor) has them in various sizes. I have the 17 lb battery, just need to install it.

Im sort of talking out of my butt and correct me if im wrong but logic would tell me that the iat going to the turbo is not necessarily going to effect it heavily because by the time the air passes through the turbo, it is already heated. What i think would effect the turbo is heat and humidity and air density!

The factory MAF sensor has a built in air temp sensor that will compensate for any temperature changes. So no, what you heard is absolutely not true. Our CAI will only help to increase overall VE with the cooler air charge. If you start with cooler going into the turbo compressor inlet you will inevitably get cooler air leaving the compressor outlet. This is most noticeable during stop and go driving.

Here is an example:

The turbocharged S2000 guys running under hood air filters have noticed significant heat soak during stop and go driving (basically, the car makes less power when getting on boost after being stuck in traffic, or sitting on the line at the drag strip). So when it came time for me to build my turbocharged S2000, I implemented a CAI Airbox that totally eliminated any of the heat soak issues that other owners were experiencing. I was pretty much able to run back to back to back 125mph trap speeds (full weight car with only a preliminary pump gas tune) runs down the drag strip in 95+ degree heat.

Anyhow, when it came time to build our PTUNING tC SS-Turbo System, we felt that a CAI design was the way to go.

To answer your question about tuning your EMU equipped turbo kit, yes I can tune it.

I'm digging the smaller battery, I'm just worried I wouldn't have enough juice to power my sound system. I do like the fact that it cleans up the engine bay some, and it look's amazing on Fox's car.

Odds are, it's a lightweight battery, like the Odyssey. They don't really need much of a battery, just something with enough juice to start the car before race sessions. They also relocated it to the rear of the vehicle for better weight displacement.
