Yea, most ppl dont understand turbos and think that they work like a fan (pinwheel), air on one side will spin the other, not understanding that heat is heavily involved in velocity and gas expansion

Bingo, it would destroy an engine if you have split manifold, it has some specifics that have to be utilized

Yea, but most customers dont understand what is required and are going to blame the tuner for 99% of the problems with the car. I am an ideal customer because I understand the risks of what I ask for, and if it blows apart, its my fault for asking for it. Too bad I handle my tuning with help from SCcobaltSS, that has learned a lot from what I ask for and what weve tried to get mine to spool.
