Question Tuning question?

If I were to install a vf39 turbo, tmic, injectors, and fuel pump, would I be able to drive it somehow to get it to scott to tune the car(when he comes down)? can he send me a base map of some sort? How would I go about doing this?

You can mail-in your ECU and get a base map. Then you can have it fine tuned when Scott comes back

You can overnight the ECU to him and then he can overnight it back. That would be like 2 or 3 days of downtime. Scott makes a map, you mail in your ecu, he flashes it, and mails it back. BAM 3 days at the most. You could send it out as we're installing everything.

You could be ok if you stay out of boost and just creep around under 3k.

Not with bigger injectors.
