it does not idle well, but once it is over 2k it is ok. It may be because i used a bosch injectors and i think TJ normally uses siemens. The tune has 10* or less advance and is rich. I have made 10psi with the tune just to make sure everything was good and it was not going to be blowing couplers and having problems on the dyno. I also wanted to make sure i had the correct spring in the wastegate as i am not going to run a boost controller for now.

Sounds like it should reeally run after you get it tuned. What did you use for the exhaust?

Sorry I meant S472 with the 83mm turbine wheel. It is rated at 850. He is very good, he has done some f body cars for me. The exhaust is all 4" mandrel bent that we built with a six inch round dynomax that is about 20" long, it ends at the stock location but is tucked so you do not see the exit.
