I ran my new intercooler quite successfully for weeks before I got my car tuned... without any issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 04/08/06 09:38 AM Share Posted 04/08/06 09:38 AM (edited) You will be fine with an F6 cooler... I have one on my car...You will obviously need to get the car tuned eventually to get the full gains out of it, but for the time being you should be fine...And yes it will work with an 8psi generic tune... In my opinion... get a custom tune, I'm sure you've read all over this site as to the benefits of a custom tune vs generic tune... and all the posts you read are right... the extra money for a custom tune is worth it... and it is probably only a couple of hundred bucks difference between to the two... but the benefits are nowhere near as close... think of it as a wry smile (generic tune) vs laughing your a$s off unable to breathe (custom tune).Jack Edited 04/08/06 09:42 AM by XR6T8_U Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
