This. I've also been trying to build my own single front mount. I know how to build it and everything I need just cannot find anyone to tune it. I've emailed trifecta and some of their vendors and a response is hard to come by.

The tune is the most important part. Everything will be for naught if the tune isn't perfect. I'd get that figured out first before doing anything else. If I had more funds, this is the route I'd be going. I have dyno tuning 2 hours from me so that's figured out. If you don't have this luxury don't do it

looks like you got headers? Why go turbo then, unless it's rear mount. But it is all in the tune.

Tuning is only a issue if you don't know where to look as far as trifecta they will tune any turbo that is not rx brand. Ipf may also tune a turbo and there are a few more as well like madtuner or Ion(who will dyno tune your car the only problem is you have to bring it to him). The only problem is dyno tuning were logs will have to be sent back and forth making it a pain and time consuming.

I read a while ago that ipf wouldn't tune turbos so has something changed? I also have tried contacting trifecta and they emailed me back once but after that they never responded, I also have an email in to mad tuner but they haven't replied yet either but it's only been 3 days

I guess I just have bad luck when it comes to getting in contact with these companies

Best way to get a response from ion is to call he a one operation but well worth the wait ask Rob21 with the llt top mount from rx. Had him also check my tune which was spot on. I want disagree it hard to get response from Vince. Ipf to my knowlegde will tune turbos from a few of my email conversation with them.

Is ion the madtuner guy? Because the madtuner website lists an email but says that they do not offer phone support.

Vince said he could tune if. but if not I have a local dyno shop that can do it.
