Basically just to free up some cash flow. I barely drive the car and don't even push it into boost at all when I do drive. Along w/ a possible shoddy tune (i.e. g35man04), I don't feel like shelling out a few hundred for another tune.

Engine management system to adjust fuel and timing...maximize your potential gains from modifications.

wow, I can't imagine a day without boost now ... sounds like you've never even realized the potential of what's under your hood in fear that it's gonna go boom!

Now go sell that pretty Rav4 soccer mom-mobile, get yourself a good tune with a valvebody kit and realize what you have and you'll never look back!

I have pushed my car harder than most people push their NA motors and because I have a solid tune I have never had to worry about things going boom (and that's with stock injectors and fuel pump to boot).

Everyone is free to donate to the "Waijai Boost Tune Fund" to convince me to keep it

I guess now it's basically a tuner kit, since I got rid of the SS box and fuel pump. I do still have the FMU though.

Prefer local guy to minimize issues.
