Is a simple enough device that when I got it tuned by him.. he tells me the tune then I put it in? Or do I send him it.. he puts the tune on.. and I get it back and hook it up?

Pre-Turbo Motor Work?

What kind of motor work are you looking at before putting in a turbo? I saw ThatKevin's Turbo "Kit" with a 50 trim, and was wondering what would need to be done before putting this type of kit on, considering it's a 50 trim. Could you just put on the turbo and run 7/8 lbs of boost without issues? I'...

So with a standalone I would get more out of my mods, or would I just start with a better base?

Instead 5-7 hp would I be getting 12-15 or so? (just an example).

I'm willing to keep saving until I find a nice one. I'm hoping to find a stock one, as I want to keep it stock. Insurance isnt a big issue because thats the only bill my parents make me pay so 200 a month wont kill me. I'm finding ones around here with 100k miles for around 7k - 8k.

2. Does it matter the car ATX/MTX?

3. Whats the purpose of the Rpm switch?

4. Will it be as simple as removing the stock manifold on now and putting on the magnum?

5. Where can I find one at?

If that! Don't forget running premium gas instead of 87. Call me cheap, but better gas mileage, cheaper insurance, and cheaper gas are pluses. I don't crave power or speed though.
