You'd have to ask him, i dunno. I figure if they're are keeping a high HP 6A13 alive in his car, Im sure they'd be able to help you out...

But that includes clutch which i needed done anyway.

Bit more than what i initially expected, but i will know if its been worth it in 2 weeks.. kit arrives maybe mon... prob tue... going straight into shop... wont see it for over a week and then... bang... i have boost!!! yay!

I would budget a bit more for tuning, especially when you using ecu replacement.

Things you might want to consider either replace or add for later.

Bigger injector or an extra one
Bigger fuel pump
new cat back exhaust
LSD
brake upgrade

The ECU is being piggybacked onto original
Got 390cc Injectors with the kit
have high flow cat n 2.5 inch exhaust.. this will prob go to 3 inch eventually..
LSD... yes... the cost? Maybe sometime next year
brake upgrade.... this is on the tables for next 3 months
