Come on dude. Just take a wild guess at what the 'advice' would be.

Please tell me you guys are kidding about actually buying this guys crap. From what I hear it's just the pulled hose mod. Yeah lots of boost for a minute until the ecu sees what's going on and cuts boost and throws a CEL. Have at it guys-James

I actually did this mod myself. What you actually buy is directions to pull apart two hoses that takes your stock boost to max boost.
This will take you to around 17psi, which is way too high for stock. You will hit a serious boost spike in 3rd 4th and 5th gear, resulting in fuel cut out. It scares some serious crap out of you! I thought i broke something, thank God i didnt! This mod sure is fun in 1st and 2nd though, but not recommended. Crap....

Here's the "pulled hose mod". Disconnect the hose the arrow points to. Don't use full throttle in the higher gears at low rpm, or you'll get a CEL. It's fun, but ghetto.
