why did your first engine blow? that should be the real discussion. if you get it tuned properly and drive correctly 8 psi should be ok

so you didn't have a proper tune and blew the engine, and now you want to build the engine because the engine was the weak point?

you have a lot to learn it seems... I'd sell the Tn kit if I were you. I don't see why you need boost anyway... do you have any suspension mods?

uhh, you probably didnt deserve the first motor, you surely don't deserve the second.


good luck with that. Why don't you do some research on the stuff that other people are buying for you.

i dont get it... you install the tn kit on a high mileage motor and to "test" it you gun it hard? also you have your grandmother buy you another motor because the first one you blew up. I don't care if you have millions of dollars, there seems to a lack of responsibility with both your car and your priorities. To apply for credit cards isnt that smart either, to build the motor nonetheless...

You've sunk to a new low... We laugh at mom and dad buying kids sports cars, but you're fuking grandma footing the bill? Jesus Christ kid! Buy your own ****! I feel bad enough getting a birthday cake from my grandma. Take your broke a$$ to the unemployment line and get a fuking job instead of taking grandma's Social Security check so you can be a wanna be balla.

Hey guy - I have a question

How old are you? I'm asking because I'm thinking if your like 16 or something it would be ok, but if you are like 30...it's time to grow up -

Besides that, it's a shame what you did to your first engine and what happened, but selling parts to recover your car back into driving mode would be the more responsible thing to do...

He's 18, and it's not ok to mooch off of your grandmother. That's just weird.
