The vacuum line isn't particularly for boost.
I'm NA, I'm putting it in my car... So yes. The guy that is making these for us has one in his realtively stock Kia, and has gotten better milage, better throttle response, has it set to auto warmup his car when he starts, all sorts of things.

Heh, I know, thanks for the help.

O man. If this lets me run higher boost w out all the bs people have dealt w our ecu, i would be so happy.
I don't want to get ahead of myelf, but i am super hopeful right now. smile.gif. But i'll wait to hear more details and what not, I am not looking to get better milage or warm up my car. Only comodity I am looking for is more psi.
I hope this product can deliver, but I really don't know, maybe its not for that aplication. Hope so tho.
If it can do this for me, I think a 350ish pricetag is very reasonable, especially considering the struggles I have not only heard, but also gone through to do something about this issue.

I'll let a few kittens out of the bag, but the cat is staying in there.
LOL
1. It's a full standalone.
2. It'll work GREAT for boost or na.
3. As you can see, it plugs right into your stock ECU harness. Got emissions that require OBDII? Swap it back.
4. There are a LOT of options and customizations to this product.

o goddddddd. i will buy one right now!!!!!
can we expect them around the same timeframe the dampers have taken from going through R&D to sales time?
i understand u can't spill everything, but for the boosted aplication, as long as the detaILS all fit, this may be the best thing ever for us.
let me know if u need R&D on a boosted aplication. it wouldnt take much to get my car back together so i could run this, and test it.

Me and Bill knew that the biggest hurdle to tunign our cars was the ECU. We've been working on this for, well almost a year, to get to where we are now. We are still looking at other cheaper options, but so far, this should be a good key to unlock potential to say the least.
Look for them to be on sale in the next month.

heh, if you guys only knew what this actually was.. such a good price for something like this.. and such a clean installation of 'un named' product.. all you would need to do is keep the cable in your car, plug in the laptop and tune/data log/recover data.
i wish i woulda had this before i invested like 1000$ into my piggyback setup.

Just got off of the phone with Bill.
Still can't say what the product actually is yet, but he should post here today.
He did give a price.
This will be done in stages.
Stage 1 is what you see here, probably with the data cable and software too, and will be $500.
Stage 2 will be with a wideband, and should be about $675.
That's all I have for now folks.
