Default Props to Kamu and his shop Oahu Automotive Specialist

Big ups and props to Kamu and Oahu Automotive Specialist. Kamu installed the ATI procharger from his car to mine, with little or no effort; fast as hell with no problems or mechanical issues. Car runs great. He also installed a list other sh$%#T that I threw at him to install at the last moment when everything started coming in the mail but had no problem doing it. I didn't know he knew his sh#$t like that. Hell of a price on labor and install. Thanks again bro. Seth tuned the car best he could as of right now....have to bring it back to tweek a couple of things (havin ECU issues) but its okay. 335hp to wheels and at only 5-6 PSI. Once we tweek the issues hopefully more. Thanks again Kamu!! you got my business. Oil cooler coming in....need you hook it up...aight.

oh... I was just being sarcastic, sorry... I wouldn't even think about going over a 100shot, and i would still be hesitant to use it.

On the mainland just for a week...its my J.O.B thing. I just sent my ECU to technosquare for reflash. Once it gets back, we (sonics) can retune. Did some research, called alot of tuners all agreed I needed the reflash to fix the open throttle stall out issue.

cool cool. haha i cant wait to get back and get on the dyno. im gonna get my ecu flashed at GTM later. its not really that big of an issue right now. just want to fix that throttle closing and speed limiter. but have fun with the power and throw on that 9psi pulley. should be fun when i get back! although you will quickly learn turbo is better bwahahhaha. if it wasnt for me kamu would have been happy with a s/c.

Well...in that case, if it wasn't for you, I woudn't have the SC; guess I owe you one. For my needs as of right now, the SC is good enough....I think
