You would need to get a new tune for the new turbos.

Email tony, tell him you want to take my spot.

You would need a custom tune for the new turbos
Such as Cobb tuned by PTF.

The car is FBO you have the hardware you need to run the hybrid twins. No one is certain of gains yet, it is a relatively untested product. The hybrid turbos really respond when you give them octane headroom, so tuning for pump gas I’m not sure if you’ll see +50 delta. But get some corn fuel and/or meth in there and you should get those gains no problem.

Thanks Guys, I really don't want to spend money for a new tune. I love my GIAC, I hope they will come out with a tune that support upgraded turbos. I would like to stay away from meth. I would do Ethanol, but they don't sale it in CT

I will wait to see results then make a decisions.

Giac wont work and wont do custom maps. Been there.
I know they tuned in EU a stage 1 turbos upgrade but they only did it since the turbo supplier is a partner of their distributor in sweden.

I’m not trying to throw stones because I am not aware of all the details, but I believe Mike’s car grenaded in GIACs hands. Absolutely not saying GIAC is at fault, to be clear. But yea. Haven’t heard about them on our platform since. I think they’ve moved onto other motors.

Ya. Hopefully he checks in, I don't want my post to appear overly speculative. Worried I may have already let that cat out of the bag.

Not much detail on what happened to Tub0Mike's car, but he did say this in another thread regarding meth usage:

I think this is one of the reasons why my motor blew but have yet to take apart the motor (might just swap and not even care). I will still have meth plugged in but I will be using a light spray with the smallest nozzles and will not be tuning for its timing advancement. I will just have a e85 and C16 map.
