Supercharger Help...tuning

Ok i talked to the people at my local shop that are dealers of the procharger system. They told me they could put on there pro charger kit if i could find somehting to tune my car....he said thats the only problem he would run into. Any help on a "interface" tuner would be appreciated. i really want to charge up my car here.

peace

It sounds like they are talking about something to adjust the air fuel. I used an SAFC, there are other piggy backs that can be used as well, but if they dont know that this is the thing to use you may want to dig a bit deeper into there level of knowledge

If you want some real knowlege on Prochargers, contact Erik at ea@houseofboost.com . He works for procharger. I contacted him a while back about doing a SC kit for my car but plans of that fell through as I bought a house instead. Anyway, he knows his stuff.

Yeah, the house was a little higher up on the priority list. I think that you could get a system for under 10k, but the problem is, you will quickly get to 10k and above with all of the rasmatazz that goes with the whole thing. The SC itself is inexpensive, but the brackets are the hard part. They need to be machined etc... The FMIC and charge pipes are easy and pretty reasonable. The only part that I havent really researched is management. I was under the impression that the computer could compensate for low boost levels. But that is where I back-burnered the idea and never looked into it any further.

Overall, if you have acess to a welder and a machinist, it's not going to be a super expensive project other than management. I recently completed my made from scratch turbo kit for my beater. I did that kit for under $500. I made all of the flanges on a cnc laser table, welded all of the manifold and charepipes etc. It was a fun project. I still don't have the cohones to rip into the GS4 quite yet. We'll see, maybe in the future I will get a wild hair and do it.
