airborne, wouldn't an airram be a big differece?
as for the swap idea, let me tell you from our newtiburon experiences what the 2 best scenarios for both you and the customer would be
1) have the customer pay for shipping back to you and for a whole new reflashed ecu. when you receive the customer's ecu with an id number, then refund the money back. generally shouldn't take longer than a week to receive the ecu.
2) have the customer pay for shipping back to you and for 50% of a new reflashed ecu. with that money incentive, they would most likely send it back to you.
TC of newtiburon.com had this problem with people not sending back a core for intake manifolds and him having problems. don't want you running into the same
i sent you 2 pm's. get back to me soon smile.gif

so after reading over this thread one more time since all we need to order is:
Turbo specs
Injector size
Compression Ratio
Intercooler size
Intercooler piping size
does that mean that even if we up the boost the ecu will be ok? (isn't 12 psi the limit on stock internals)
btw, on the ecu thing just do it like autozone. charge the price+your cost of an ecu which they get back when they mail theirs in. on reflashes charge for the reflash + cost of ecu... you get the idea.
I don't plan on being past 8 psi any time soon (year) but when i do this is definently the best option so far.

airborne, i'm not sure if pm's from arkperfomance will be forwarded to the changed screenname, but please pm me here from now on. kikassboy
btw, wat are the gains of this ecu? the hp and torque graphs don't look much different form run 1 and run 2

Hey guys, thanks for all the support, but I'll be out for a few days possibly. My baby is due to be born any day/hour. I won't be home so internet usage will be sparse. I will get back to everyone as soon as I can. Thanks for your understanding

congrats on the baby!
when you're back, the 2003 i4 tibs have map, 2004-2005 i4 tibs have maf. the 2003 v6 engines are maf, but in 2004-2005, hyundai claims a higher amount of power. i'll be calling up hyundai to find out if the ecu's are any different.
