thank you. I just want people to understand what they are getting (or planning to get) when they purchase a turbo system.

This is the best turbo fuel FAQ!

So its not wise for someone to drive a non stock Tubored car to a different climate? Say i were to go from Philadelphia to Florida? or maybe something more reasonable like Philadelphia to Virginia (somewhat hotter).

normally you tune your car conservatively for daily driving, so for the most part you will be alright. But if you do an extreme tune in Denver and then drive to LA, then yea, you will have a HUGE problem.

This is true, unless you have a system that can compensate using atmospheric (not the map sensor, another one) pressure sensor and intake air temperature sensor. K-pro and the AEM systems can do this. Once you have that set up, you can change climates all you want and you'll still be good on the tune. If you do not have a system that can change based on those sensors, then you do need to retune (or at least check it) if you have an extreme climate change.
