Needless to say, the stock 8.5 psi setting should be plenty for most people. BTW Ken, sorry you weren't able to stick around long enough to test drive your car today. Your car will be ready for you to test drive next week though.
and u forgot to bring the camera aaaaaaahhhh would have been sweet to watch lol...i guess ill wait for travis to get this kit to see some of those vids lol...PTUNING takes the lead


This time around though, they will 99.9% be all track videos. I think the world needs to see more 2step launch control vids coming from a tC, and during a launch at the drag strip has yet to be seen.
aaahhhhh track is closed over here but i was plannin on that haha..i still never launched mine off the 2 step ..but its pointless to do on the street


Need to be full out, rims with slicks mounted.

The vid is wrong just for starters. That tC ran a 10sec 1/4 mile. I have the Dsport magazine that came with a DVD and it has that run on it. I believe it does 9's now, last I checked. That's the same tC in this video

At 2:11 into the video

But lets not go off topic to much though...

UNBELIEVABLE!!!

That's the best word to describe driving the car today. From a 30-40mph roll in 3rd gear, the car goes no where with the 12psi set! It spun tires every time. It wasn't a wheel hop, just wheel spin. That's on 245/19 series summer tires!

Once in 4th gear, the car put me in the back of my seat. It sounds amazing with the turbo spool and PTUNING 3" exhaust.

I'm very happy i got the opportunity to drive the car before they take all the parts off to send out for manufacturing and before i head back to the sandbox. If you are interested in buying this kit, you WILL NOT be disappointed. Compared to driving the Greddy turbo kit at 8.5psi and the PTUNING turbo kit at 12psi, i must say that the price for what you get is unbeatable.

PTUNING FTW!

UPDATE:
We have received many inquiries on when the kit will be available.
Turn around time will be based on the number of pre-orders received.
This will also dictate the number of kits that will be produced on the first batch.
We will keep everyone updated on the production progress.

In the meantime, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to PM, email mike@ptuning.com, or call us at 1-877-PTUNING.

Regards,
Mike @ PTUNING

We have received numerous inquiries about the different components of our turbo kit, mainly the manifold. At the moment, we haven't decided if this is something we wish to sell separately. We will probably release the complete turbo kit first, then make a decision at a later time.

Thanks again for your interest.

Regards,
Mike @ PTUNING

UPDATE:
We have received a number of requests from potential buyers about the $400 credit. It seems that some have already purchased our 3" exhaust system. Therefore, to simplify thing, we will deduct the $400 from the regular price for preorders.

$4395 (Pre-order price)
$4795 (Price, when the kit is released)

Mike @ PTUNING
