WE both live in Canada, the lack of Performance and Tuning facilities is cities is a complete joke. There are far more Pieces in the puzzle with a turbo, BOV, Waste gate, intercooler piping, etc. Lots of items to fail or slip off under boost. Last thing you need is to be stuck in the mountains with a dicked components and NO performance shops to speak of. Setting and maintaining a turbo setup when you don't have any reputable shops around to help is a nightmare...I own 2 turbo vehicles

The TVS kit is so basic, minimal components, and for towing....WOW, works great. I could not endorse it enough.
VERY helpful post, something I hadn't really thought of before I will likely sway my decision, thank you very much. A lot of helpful posts lately guys thank you.

towing sure the tvs1900 gets you low end torque but talking yesterday to mike he basically stated you probably wont feel any difference between the magnacharger and the whipple. tuning wise towing the whipple would be key because the IAT's go down 20-30 degrees which IMO is a no brainer.
So you're saying the whipple is 20-30 degrees less compared to the magnacharger, did I get that correct. Because that would be a very attractive attribute. Thanks for that info.
