BAXRTUTE Gold Donating Members 2,639 Member For: 8y 7m 8d Posted 22/05/16 01:45 AM Share Posted 22/05/16 01:45 AM You would think so! Though if the owner keeps asking to up it... the tuner will up it even after warning them firstly. They blown the block the tuner makes more money having to fix it.

Box stock T. Member 1,384 Member For: 9y 7m 19d Posted 22/05/16 02:07 AM Share Posted 22/05/16 02:07 AM Enter at your risk sought of theory that's for sure. First thing they should be asking is it a built motor or stock. And how many km's has it done. It can be done with a easy ramping on the curve but there still is a limit to how much torque and psi the bottom end will take. Im definitely no tuner far from it, but I'm just going on what Martin has said to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The car is still running strong and the T5z box is holding up surprisingly.

Ended up being the throttle body opening and closing slightly in gears 3 4 and 5 at higher revs. On 5/22/2016 at 0:07 PM, Box stock T. said: Enter at your risk sought of theory that's for sure.

At the end of the day if things go wrong I'll be buying a built motor and throwing that in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
