You guys mentioned to stay away from crawford which is appreciated, but which kit would you recommend instead? I've been looking at the HKS/greddy kits if those are better.
I believe the AVO ticks all the boxes

I looked at every type of forced induction as well

1. Linear power delivery like a super charger
2. Better torque than a super charger
3. Reliable
4. Better for heat (1000° C turbine and pipe work not in front of radiator)
5. Basic kit with a good tune will pump 250hp all day every day on 98 ron with no need for a ton of supporting mods
6. Maintenance and inspection of the serpentine belts is not a hassle
7. Heat coated from factory
8. Trialed, tested and improved over the last 7 years

I have even got over my hate of the UEL header, only because FI though.

My short list was the AVO or the Harrop, AVO was cheaper, plus AVO can make imature whooshy noises

I'm old, not dead
