Also, I was also thinking of buying Cosworth IM and TB for sale on forums and getting F2 Header (cosworth if I can find) and I was wondering when I buy the X-Cal if will have to pay for a custom tune?




You dont need to buy any of the items you listed. All we recommend is the Stage 1 & 2 turbo kit along with a good flowing 2.5" exhaust sytem. The turbo kit comes with a SCT X-CAL 2 along with complete tuning.

As for the wastegate we can get lower sprung units to offer less boost. However if you get stage 2 the boost is adjustable so you can go as low as ~7psi up to 11psi. Running at 7-8psi will still make awsome power and keep your transmission working longer due to less stress.
