a mail ordered blower tune is plain dumb.

 

Heres a PIC of the SQ!!!

She only has 4-5K miles on her!

 

my mail order tune made 408 horsepower with 12.5 a/f at 5500 rpms due to a cavitating fuel pump

 

Where did you get it from and how much did it cost? I will need one.

 

here is the mongoose kit, im just giving you this site just so you can see what you actually need, so you dont buy too much stuff....you may want tim to do a mail order tune for you(over at modular powerhouse), he hasnt lost a motor yet

i would of suggested that to him but i dont think tim does mailorder tunes for kits people put together themselves. i could be wrong. you could try it will probably be like 500-600 dollars for the tuner and 1 tune.

 

I'll just sit here and wait till Jeredan actually gets this thing and installed. Then make a poll for how long its gonna take for the motor to blow. lol

 

This guy seems to be wanting to sell the kit outright now....:wallbash: But he still hasnt made up his mid he said the reason that he want to sell it is because he can get a ZEX Wet kit for like $800 bucks...LMAO. I said hey man ill match the price that theyre asking and put a little money on top. I told him all about that zex kit. Even if he doesnt do this I will still be putting a vortech on it. I found a place where I can get everything but the head unit for 700 bucks. Thats all the brackets,belts, pipes, hoses, oiling, intake, discharge valve, injectors, and a lightning MAF. All brand new stuff. Everything but a head unit. Ive seen those go for about 600 bucks used. A brand new one costs $1500. If I pieced together a whole brand new SQ kit I can get it for $2200. Thats before the mail order tune ill have. If I can find a used head unit itll come to like $1400 for the whole kit. I will sell my nitrous kit piece by piece and come up with the money for the base kit. Then Ill find the money for a head unit. Thats if this guy BS's me.

 

You're basically buying a tuner kit, I've seen them sold for 2,300-2,700 for the S/SQ-trim.

You also need:
Focus SVT Pump: 100
42# Injectors: 350
90mm LMAF: 100 (Could peg which means you should get the SCT Big Air Maf)
Spark Plugs: 30
Boost Gauge: 100
Fuel Pressure Gauge: 200
Pod: 50
Tune with Xcal: 550

That's if you installed it all yourself.
Total: 1,480
Grand Total:3,780

 

No you dont understand, its a complete KIT including the injectors, MAF, and all the rest of the parts except for the actual head unit. Also I am putting the blower on before I buy any guages and all that stuff. Im just going to get the darn thing on there and running. I know that I need to watch my fuel pressure and everything but guys come on now were just talking about some puny 8 pounds of boost here......

So everything before the head unit costs $700.
Theres a head unit on ebay for $600
Thats all I need guys for right now. Then when I get that stuff Ill buy a simple mail order tune. All that would never come to even $2000. Whare did $3700 come from? Even with a new head unit It would cost me $2200+ 350 for a chip......+ 2550 total and the blower would be on and running. Im installing everything. Putting a non-intercooled blower on will be childsplay for me.

 

well the guy backed out....looks like ill be sticking with my plan.
