Have to agree with Full Race and Vargas with tuning. Companies who make the turbo kits provide the parts to make cars perform. But 90% of the time, you will need additional parts to allow the car to run the way it should. IE, plugs, BOV, WG, Aux Fuel, axles, Driveshaft, ect. Just parts to the puzzle.

Now re sellers like us who offer the CP-E Turbo kits, we can get you a tune for it with lund Racing using the nGAUGE (which this combo holds the world record with our car) We can get you everything you need to get it running the best with no issues. We can work with the power level you want along with long term goals. Lund also holds the record on stock motor with a Vargas and stock turbo / motor which we did back in March. With that said... Lund Racing is the way to go for tuning and that's on any turbo kit.

Shoot me a call. Would like to explain everything on different kits, tuning, ect. Just here to help ya! 561-588-6630

No offense but Geoff is 100% right here. Selling a canned tune with a turbo upgrade is what companies do when they want to make extra money off you. EACH car though the same, will perform slightly different. When spending money on something like a turbo kit, you should budget into that a custom tune from someone who knows what they are doing.
I'd like to do that. It's easy to build a budget when a simple clarifying statement such as "tuning not included" is on the kit webpage.

Sometimes we offer a tune "package", meaning when you buy the turbo you can check an option box to add a custom tune from X tuner for X dollars. It is usually at a lower cost than the tuner normally charges as a bundle price with the turbo. Once the kit is installed you contact X tuner to begin the tuning process. To say a company "should" include a "tune" with a turbo kit honestly, is not accurate, or how it really works.

My .02
So your $0.02 is that the tune "package" you offer is "not accurate" or "how it really works?"

Before this descends any further into illustrating how ignorant I am of the way the industry works or how a turbo works, let me clarify that I am completely aware that a change of turbo will require a change of tune; that custom tune must be budgeted for; a custom tune will outperform a canned tune; and that I intend to determine whether each kit in the OP includes a tune in the price or not.

Sigh, everyone is offended by everything these days. Sorry if letting you know, that no, a hardware company should not have to include a tune with a piece of hardware they sell. Its like saying a company selling toolboxes is wrong for not including tools with it. As I stated, and I stick by it, if you are buying a turbo kit, budget in getting a custom tune, its all part of the puzzle. No single piece will ever be the whole package. Why you are offended or saying we are even suggesting you are unintelligent is baffling. Do not read into things too much. :confused:

It's a simple question: tune included, like Lethal states right on the page? Yes or no? Have a good day.

Custom tuning not included. They would say otherwise if it was, right?
