Default awaiting turbonetics install....

i'm getting my tn kit installed on tuesday. i'm going to be using the ecu reflash for now so i decided to put my stock exhaust back on just to be on the safe side. i wanted to ask some of you guys how the car would be different as far as at idle and starting the car up. are there any other things i should know? i can't wait. thanks.

3.5 days? Thats about how long a APS TT kit takes. But the 1300.00 sounds good.

What gauges are you using, and if you are using them, is that included? What is the zientronix?

the zeitronix replaces the use of gauges, it reads your a/f, boost, and egt. check it out here, www.zeitronix.com

Price seems reasonable, yeah first thoughts on hearing the almost four days raises a eyebrow... But then again shop could be busy so getting sometimes getting to your ride takes a little longer to get done.

Well the 3.5 days is not full out on the car as mentioned, the shop has been busy with FI installs but also realize that the ECU has to be shipped out for reflash so minimum 3 days for that, luckily we checked and they are open next week.
