I know I’m late to the party but wanted to see... OP did you get sorted and install and get tuned?

To your original post I don’t see why the engine mileage would be a problem. I also don’t think your choice of kit is a problem and some of the responses here were really unhelpful - but I’ve seen that in many threads.

My personal experience... I’ve just ordered a SC kit because I wanted a bump in power, still wanted immediate throttle response, but not the complications and extra parts and heat etc from a turbo.
I too am not hugely experienced in modifying cars but I can tell you the 2 things I think I have done right;
1) I drove in as many FI cars as I could (rly hard where I live as there aren’t a ton). This really helped with my final decision on kit.
2) I spoke at length with Delicious tuning plus my local guy (who uses Delicious). Both were amazing and really spent a lot of time answering my emails and phone calls... I’m happy that I understand the process, risks, options, etc - and from the pros and not “opinions” from people.
Let’s face it - apart from 1 or 2 well known guys on this forum you don’t really know who’s behind that keyboard when they are responding.

Anyway - keen to hear your update... how’s the car?
