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.

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....

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.
