Going with SynapseTurbo Kit...

So, I have decided to go with the synapse turbo kit for my TC......

I am sure I will need a new clutch to handle the tourqe, but I have a few questions....

Anyone Have this kit yet?

Anyone know the numbers that they made at a 1/4?

They tune it themselves? or would it be smarter to have trifecta tune it for me?

If anyone can hook me up with some info I would greatly appreciate it.


I will be ordering this in 3 weeks

they will tune you go with the tune that they give you, if your not local i think you send them your ecu and they will flash it for you and send it back, your numbers should be pretty close to what they put down, if the same. they put down 375whp and 371tqr, now that was with a stock clutch, and 21lbs with pump gas. im sure you could run maybe a few more lbs of boost, and if you get a clutch it will grab better and put a better number to the wheels.

ok.....good info, thanks

I want to take it to maybe 25 psi, I am sure with that kit, once someone figures out the fuel mapping, the hp and tq can be raised another 20 - 30 hp.....

Is it and internal or external waste gate?

yeah because you'll never be able to buy those sensors seperate.

sorry but 270 crank horsepower for 600 bucks is a joke. sensors or not.

you definately are going to need a clutch i believe the stock one starts to slip at 320hp. look into the zzp prototype or i believe theres also a gt3076r out aswell from another company.

Yeah, I opted to go that route.

Its cool though, I have moneys to get me buy for a while (i.e. family)

This is the only thing I am spending on for myself. for the rest of it..... 5k credit card pay off, car refinance..... and the rest to the savings to gain some interest
