interesting, didn't know they made a kit for our cars, this should be in the turbo section though not advanced tuning

Ah didnt know were to put it, still kinda new to the forums. My best guess was advance tuning. Anywho I think I might get the whole kit with the front mount and the upgraded fuel system.

Looks pretty good, but I just don't know about paying $700 for a fuel pump, some injectors, and an safc.

Exactly. I'm no fan of the SAFC on these cars. Check out bloodyangel's thread about how his car runs like absolute shit after having SBR tune it with an SAFC.

Just because they are experienced with Mustangs and the like doesn't mean they are experts in 420A. I will give them credit for trying, but the average guy is going to need a (S)FMU before he needs SAFC.

Finally, think about this: Suppose you spend $250 for new injectors, and $125 for the pump, they're charging you $425 for a SAFC and you'll still need a SFMU before you can get the car running decent.

:shrug

I think it'd be worth it to get the intercooled kit w/o the fuel upgrade. Spend another $450 instead of $700 to get some injectors, sfmu, and a pump and it'd be a damn good kit. That dp looks a hell of a lot better than the hahn or star dp. I just wish I could get some better, close-up pics of the mani.

Exactly what I would have said.

There's guys who run higher than 10psi perfectly fine on an sfmu and 440's.

Safc is garbage imo. Buy MSnS for the same price and actually tune your motor :P

It's so pretty. :love

Really, you guys think that looks like a decent kit. I was pretty dissapointed with the overall finish, looked a little rag-tag to me. I mean for $2400 bare kit, you'd expect a bit more, the flex section isn't even fully welded on, and I could weld up a charge pipe from steel for about $40, why am I paying them to do it when most other companies offer the aluminum piping? Granted you're getting a BIG-ASS intercooler, but what kind of jackass runs that intercooler with 5-7psi, it's even stupid to run a core that big with 10-15psi, and that's their claim for 'high horsepower'.

In the long-run this is just my opinion, I wouldn't spend the money on this, I'd just build my own kit for less then half the price, but then again I don't even run turbo, so what's my opinion worth :+

yeah this kit is brand new, and ive kind of been wondering what people were going to say about it. at first the base package seems to be fairly priced compared to hahn & star, until you consider that apperently theres no fuel system. so your paying 2400 dollars for a manifold, turbo, wastegate, bov, and a few feet of piping. and about the fuel upgrade, i agree about the sfmu setup. i ran 10 psi with an sfmu and 255 cc injectors, and tuned it in really well using a wideband and egt guage. and the fmic, you could get a ebay core and make your own piping for less than $500. overall id say the kit is slightly overpriced, but looks to be a well built kit.
