only large scale companies can afford to have several supply factories, Microtech is still a small company and only has distributors in the US and will probably never have a central location here.

yuck.. i still hate the PFC but i guess it takes time to get used to. i am still stuck on how easy it is to work with the microtech in tuning though. i just hate being stuck with the PFC's block memory tuning, sure with any fine tuning you have to use it but what's nice about the microtech is even with a rough LOAD map tune it is still 95% as close to a fine tune already.

Damn!!!!!!!!!! You gotta get rid of that little *** turbo and go to something bigger man, lol. What are those dual tial 38's? Very nice man can't wait to here your numbers with that turbo. Time to get that hotside ceramic coated 
I've never really messed around with a pfc so I can't say much for them I just know that most people don't like or at least don't tune them on a regular basis. Most of the tuners I know of would rather tune on haltech or pfc. I still haven't made my decision yet. The power fc can get pretty expensive with the harness adapter, good stock harness witch on a second gen is hard to come by, power fc, commander and datalogit I would probably have to put out a ton of money even after selling the microtech.

Yeah I think I might need a bigger turbo, I hope I don't caught with it in the Turbo Street class
Those are dual Tial 38mm...I do plan something for the hotside, for the time being i'll use a blanket.

If you're going to run anywhere near the limit on the boost sensor, why have it fly blind if it ever spikes?
Doesnt matter if you're going to run that much boost on purpose, but its nice to have your ECU know whats going on.

You better get vids of when you drag this thingin turbo street class or I'm going to have to have to stick brian on you....speaking of witch he's always got a camera recording something. Tell him to go so he can record it and post it up on here. Good luck!

I’m running 23-24psi on my 20psi map. I guess it’s not ideal but it can be done, just allow a timing and fuel map for max psi setting on your 20psi load map.
lets be realistic your ether cursing under vacuum or a gentle squeeze of boost to over take or your punching wot at max psi, so there’s really no need to have load settings that are super accurate in between.
Just my opinion though, I guess its all relative to how much money you want to throw at the car vs. measured gains.

Cant wait to see numbers and times , that turbo looks so very promising.
Unfortunalty Everyone who has installed it in the past hasnt runned it hard. then parts out or upgrades or takes a break.
Hope someone runs the 25 psi and mucho videos.
And slammedblk7 , Cant wait to see your tune with the new manifold . Maybe you posted, but when are you going to get retuned ? and videos also.
