We checked the tune at multiple boost levels up to 25psi and the tune was consistent.
Chris- Try to keep it at 23 psi or less. At 25 psi, you are maxing the MAF and the tune becomes a little less reliable. At least keep an eye on the wideband AFR if you have the boost that high.

1 question... wouldnt it only pump as much air as the supercharger could pump since its belt driven?
what i mean is, all the turbo is doing is making it boost faster, not necessarily more?
sorry if its a noob question, im just wondering

We had a 3" aluminum tube setup on it, but picked up over 8whp at only 18 psi by switching to the 4" tube. At 25 psi, I'd expect it to make a huge difference. I guess it's a matter of choosing cosmetics or performance at that point.

3.5" would likely be the largest solid tube we could utilize. Maybe we will dyno test a 3.5" next time around. It might be enough to get the job done and look better in the process.

NO - the SC is only "online" until about 12psi, then the bypass opens so turbo boost can get a direct shot to the intake. Also, with a big turbo, the blower is actually "suck spooling" the turbo.

I think some nice 3.5" aluminum would look soo much better, and last longer especially with all the heat that will be built up back there!
Header, turbo.... there's some serious heat back there! Just a suggestion

That is awesome, but I don't understand why you didn't just order that clutch from the start considering you knew how powerful this kit is. Still congrats and hurry up and get some vids as soon as you get that new clutch in

thats awesome, me and my friend were joking today if its even possible to have turbo and super in the engine at the same time, then i check on here and u just did it, dont hear to much of the whine tho, is that because u need a better clutch so u can come on to it more? how much did this all cost u
