I mentioned to Mike when I gave him a call on Saturday among a few other things.
Me: I saw that you posted about having Ecutek as an option for the MHI kits. I remember we talked back in December about the blow through issue with high flowing exhausts and supercharging. With my car having PPE's, do you think that tuning with the Ecutek and their VVEL adjustments could benefit me?
Mike: It is definitely something we can discuss with Sam and using it on your car instead."

With the overlap of VVEL on SC'd vehicles, it can be difficult to build enough boost to get these compressors operating at peak efficiency. I do have a HFC on the Y pipe and a 2.75" restriction at my mid pipe, so I'm not sure how that will affect it. I do have a gut feeling that I will see a positive effect using Ecutek specifically because I know GTM IS making VVEL adjustments with it as opposed to Uprev and it's beta version.
