I have some questions for those of you who use Enthalpy:

1) What is your setup?2) What is the boost?3) What is your MPG?4) What are your impressions of it? Positive and Negative aspects please.

I want to use the Enthalpy with N60 MAF and Deatschwerks 480cc injectors. I would like to know that doing so won't kill MPGs and also will be capable of upping the boost if I get the itch.

Well, and that would be handy for purposes of tuning. But no, I have pretty well decided that I would like to use Enthalpy because I have heard it will make better power, it's less expensive, and there are more options. I have a lot of respect for JWT, but I want my ecu to be Enthalpy.

I use Enthalpy.

Setup is in my sig.Boost is either 7psi or 12psiMPG I have no idea... Close to stock tho I would imagine.I love it. Nothing better than being able to run whatever boost you want and only have to worry about maxxing injectors..

Setup is Phatka-t kit. GT32 turbo, manifold, fuel system with 50 lber's, etc etc.

Boost is at 12psi or so MPG 20-25mpg (turbo is a fast spooler)

I would say that the car drives better off boost then it did when it was NA. Enthalpy has A+++++ service. He has been working with me to get everything working correctly. The last thing we are working on is the rich idle. He sends all new tunes 2 day shipping or overnight if the car just does not run at all. If you look at my cardomain page you can see the dyno #'s and how well he has the under boost A/F. Since this dyno he has richened up the low end and middle. But for some reason, this has been an odd ball on tuning.

That answers my questions. By the way, you both have very impressive setups. I was thinking of boosting at about 10-12 on a T04B V trim. I expect about 250, which is plenty if it's like a S2 but with torque.

t3/to4e 50 trim, Z mafs, 600cc's15 psi - unopened motor~23 mpg (25ish on road trips, but i just cant keep my foot out of it )

runs great, good for 12.6ish so far, only issue is that after driving it for a while, and getting into boost, it will fall off the map since its passing the maximum load value (TTP limit), and then in boost it gets really rich, but thats solved with turning the car off and on. otherwise its perfect.

i live about an hour away from scott, so after the holidays ill likely hook up with him and have it fine tuned and finally get some numbers.

btw, i have a '97, running the conversion harness (which is flawless) and a "31" S13 ecu. no CEL from all my obd-2 stuff i yanked out either.

Good, good. How does it pass off the map? Does it just have more air than he mapped for. Doesn't he expand his map over stock?

I got it from BillKlineVT. He is on http://www.ka-t.com. He is also on these forums and Freshalloy's. Not sure if he is making them anymore tho.
