If you put the stock intake back on and install the blower you can use the Whipple supplied tune. While its not the best tune for a max effort build, your cars parts will live a long and healthy life.

Yes. Unless you get a tuner kit. Then you buy injectors and tune separately.

Yes. A custom tune will net you more, but if your not looking for that, then just stick it on and enjoy.

Is it possible to use regular fuel 87 octane grade with super chargers?
Please, i just want to know if it will work with regular fuel without any issue...like the L99 is supposed. Tks |

Mmmmmm, not a good idea at all. I suppose with a real conservative tune, it would be ok (if you didn't beat it too hard)....but why bother? Be safe, run 91+ octane (93 if you can get it). If you spend the $$ on a sc, why cheap out on gas just to save $7 every time you fill up? And as far as I know 87 octane isn't recommended for the L99 when it's stock anyway...you're asking for problems if you don't run the correct fuel on the sc'd car.

you are suppose to run premium in your car, even if its 100% stock.
