I hope it doesn't prove to be too much of a pain in the backside. I'd still love a ride in your car if we can work it out, but I'll soon be joining you in the boost club. Congrats on the car. I heard there was so much smoke in the shop when they first started it up....LOL. Glad to hear it's running. Do you have plans to get it on a dyno to check A/F and power? Jeff indicated that it might be running rich. If it is, it'll be interesting to see what the corrective action to that is.....ECU adjustment by Turbonetics maybe?
Well the kit is designed to run very rich. its meant to be EXTREMELY safe out of the box... Thats why the flash that is installed is good for 9.5 PSI safely... I'm actually thinking of adjusting mine to 9 PSI dialy...I have a little MBC in my car right now but have a Blitz SBC-id on order.

Have you had previous experience with the Blitz SCB-ID? Wondering why you choose that one, if you don't mind sharing your thoughts

I looked at all the features of the avialable ones, the install guides, and talked to people that have used many of them. The word I got was that the HKS EVC 5 was the best followed closesly by the Blitz. I got the Blitz based on the install and setup information I had. It seems to be the easiest to operate.

If you don't mind me asking and if it isn't to much trouble is it possible for you to PM a link or what not with the info on the install of the Blitz? Or did you attain the info elsewhere?

I looked at a friends owners manual who was one in a WRX. I tried to find it on Blitz USAs webpage but couldn't...sorry...
