Please talk me into or out of getting the intercooled 210 kit.
Would like to hit 250-270hp.

Current Mods:

Tomei UEL Header (Ceramic Coated).
Tomei Overpipe (Ceramic Coated).
OFT (I'll be selling this before adding boost).
Mishimoto Oil Cooler.
Do you have E85 and/or willing to setup Water methanol injection?
If yes, proceed in discussion.
If no, go to next kit.

This is a great DD and rare occasion autox/track kit. IMO one of the best kits for the street, one of the worst for autox/track, very flat torque curve or rather line. But does lack top end compared to other kits which is where you live at on a track/autox. Do you want a flat 210ft lbs from 3k-7k rpm, or 180ft lbs at 3k gradually building up to 210ft lbs at 5k and 230ft lbs at 6500rpm

Also I mention E85/WMI because without it your heatsoak will be so bad after one lap you’ll be at full NA bolt on power levels. This kit is the worst at managing intake temps without some extra help.

But that low end torque and instant throttle response/boost feels like a strong V6
