that's going to be a tough one to accomplish......that dyno thread is the only other comparison I think.

Chris the car that you used to get that 414hp number is that one that you just put together the way it normally should be and a car that is driven all the time?

That car is the standard kit plus the ignition upgrade. I believe he daily drives it with the 365WHP tune.

Actually, I have been daily driving it at 16psi(414whp) ever since we got that number ;)

Now thats what I'm talking about! He's confident about his product so he's pushing it further! I don't what to say but I'd still love to see how progressivley this kit makes the power. How's the tune? quick flight to NY for a tune Chris for a fellow PR and quick tune....

i have herd bad stories about this kit. like oil being everywhere u could think of. n a knock off turbo? knock off filter? tht is just frm one thread i have read n streerd me away frm the kit.BUT if u could PM me with sum re-asurence then i will def order in january

Sounds like someone botched an installation if they got oil everywhere. One of my oil lines loosened a little and leaked some oil once, but I tightened that up just fine. As for the turbo internals, I can't speak for the innards, but mine is still going strong. Seems like a very solid kit to me. People will argue about the turbo sizing, some want this turbo, others want it a tad smaller to spool faster. But the quality of the kit is pretty spot on.

^wasn't a botched installation, he got a bad knock off turbo

it is a well engineered kit and very well thought out, just uses cheap parts.
