dude dont listen to these guys, 2-2.25in intercooler piping is perfect for 1.5L-2.3L engines, bigger is not always better. you did good with that choice, however, i dont like FMU's. and as for the BTM, it couldnt hurt, just dont retard too much

Re:almost got boost what do you think
Setup looks good..fuel management could be better...2-2.25 is good for intercooler piping...I got 1.5" coming from the turbo and after the intercooler 2"-->2.5"
The compressor outlet inside diameter is only 1.5" the OD is 2"...so I wouldn't worry about it if it's the same size or a bit bigger it's ok.

Re:almost got boost what do you think
thanks alot for those comments.I knew alot of yall wouldnt like the fmu and I personally would rather have uberdata but it sounds like some complicated ---- atleast for me cause I aint no computer genius.If it was that I could get uberdata and whatever other ---- that has to be done to the computer all together I would be more than glad to pay for it.Then I could raise the boost some more.But all that ---- about chipping and burning this and down loading that is out of my reach.
