Well I am sure it says no advanced timing. And your ecu advances timing. You need your retard your timing for boost.

Yea with msd or something. or megasquirt. Just run a stock ecu and a missing link/map clamp and you should be fine.

the mopar pcm advances timing.......its not as simple as just retarding the cam timing..
you have to use a different pcm..

the stock bottom end can saftely handle 8 psi without issues

a rough estimate for HP when it comes to boost, 1psi = 10hp
it gives you a rough estimate

the mopar and AF/X pcms state that they shouldn't be used with turbos because of the advanced ignition timing the computers use, thus the need for high octane premium fuel. You don't want the mopar pcm. You want to give it to me. (mind control)
