Are you aware that IPS is about to release their TT kit? No figuring out needed, just a tune.

Looks like this TT setup would beat up an IPF kit and take it's lunch money.

I've always like the sound of a supercharger versus a turbo and I'm not talking the actual sound but the words themselves. As far as actual sound goes, a turbo's blowoff valve is music to the soul. But yeah, if I had the money and was pressed to choose, I just might go with this kit instead of the IPF as the mo' powah potential seems to be a good bit higher for roughly the same price.

But then I remember there's no way I can afford either kit any time remotely soon so yeah, back to the nitrous plan...

It's the "just a tune" part that seems to trip up even the best mechanically-engineered builds on the LLT. I hope something gets worked out definitively for those that want to keep their LLT, but it might not happen unfortunately...

It's not fair to compare the TT IPS kit to let's say my LLT IPF kit...my boost is preset from IPF to 6#'s so if the IPS kit on the LFX doesn't have fueling issues I WOULD HOPE it would beat an LLT IPF Kit but...

On the flip side I would like to see the boost bumped on an IPF LFX Kit....maybe for myself I can get a Alky control kit to bump up the boost

Just my .02

Same here. I am also looking for another job to help pay for my repaint and mods installs.
