speed density is a good way to go. im not sure about the gauranteed 30whp thing though. its real good for people running VTA blow off valves, but i wouldnt go through the time to put speed density on stock turbo setup, its really not needed until you run high boost and/or bigger turbo. imo

Not completely true, I run SD on my stock 8 turbo car and its actually putting down some pretty crazy numbers for what it is (401 whp, 413wtq). You dont really do it for power but for driveability and ease of tuning once everything is setup. I agree though its not worth it unless your really familiar with how it all works and how to tune it so you can do it yourself. I paid $120 for my omni-bar and and everything else was all setup and tuned by myself with just a baseflash from jason@spec-ops

And everyone else is right its not going to pick up 30whp by no means but it does free up power with removal of MAF and makeing your own CAI without worring with where to locate the MAF.

I made 600whp with a red tuned to SD. Talk to Junior at turbo trix about the benefits. He can get you set up.

All this SD talk makes me wanna go sd. I hear everyone with sd talking about omni power map sensors, can you run the aem 3.5 bar map with ecu flash?

i would say a main drawback is finding a tuner thats close, unless you already know how to tune it

other then that i really cant think of a drawback that exists on the stock turbo only

Thanks. What about general drawbacks? Any issues with drivability?

Only drawbacks are if you drive often where there is a great change in elevation. As I don't believe there is any baro compensation with SD
