Default how do i get to the tune shop?

i didn't think of this till today but how do i get to the tune shop after installing my turbo kit? i know phearable.net can make me a basemap but how safe is it?

also i was wondering if i could use this elbow and re-route the wg? here's my manifold so you get the idea. if i dont re-route it, the wg will probably not clear the rad and i'm tryin to keep a full rad.



how's my list look?

here's what i have so far:
shorty tub manifold
t3/t4 .48/.60 50trim
38mm tial 10psi
greddy type-s
dsm 450 blacktops
boost & oil pressure gauge
aem fpr
apexi turbo timer
chipped p72

what i need:
downpipe
intercooler
ic piping
spark plugs
fuel pump
oil lines
coolant lines

aimming for 300whp

You got the wrong manifold for a full rad. There is no real point to a full one anyway. A half sized will work just fine! Full size is only needed for road racing IMO.

But yes, that elbow will work. And yes a base map will work as well! Just dont boost AT ALL. Having a WB in the car helps!

just open the wastegate so you never build any boost...

I was in the same boat. I decided it was safer to get it there by towing it. It's possibly cheaper to just drive it with the waste gate open though. Possibly because she could go boom before you even show up for your appointment. Do you take the chance?

you are fine ot run on a basemap seriously, dont go around flooring it and you'll be fine, if you dont have the self-control to not floor on the way to get it tuned you dont deserve the car.
