    What were you expecting? That article is several years old, and it is the same place that promotes the boost-bypass mod.

    So you're saying that they did not know any better back then? And if they know better now like I think you're trying to say then why did they not alter the misinformation they have up?


    Along with the boost bypass valve mod. Belive it or not people still read this stuff.

    I am not justifying anything for them, just making a statement. Since SLP would toss a 3.5" on a pretty much stock GTP back when they were new, a lot of folks believe that to be a safe practice. We have figured out quite a bit since then, especially when it comes to scanning and tuning. Right, wrong, or indifferent, folks will have to learn one way or another not to trust just one input on a subject; Darwin was on to something, I think.

    I agree for the most part except for it seems to be more than just one vendor that has this opinion (3800proformance).


    ZZP still sucks.
