I think the most difficult thing would be engine management. Does JB4 allow for custom maps?
Actually you can run this turbo on a otherwise completely stock car. Tuning can be done with JB4 only. I do recommend a sport cat or cat less down pipe and either run some ethanol in the mix to up your octane. More octane = more boost = more performance.

The turbo has a larger compressor wheel and clipped turbine wheel. Other than that it uses the same housing as the stock turbo. Hence its called a stage 1 upgrade.

Further more Pure turbos are working on a stage2 upgrade as well. Should you want to upgrade in the future from your stage1 to stage2 kit you will have the stage1 refunded. Now how nice is that?
