1). How much plug in play is the v2 kit? Any cutting, modifying needed?
2). What oil cooler are you guys running? Is it required to use a specific hks oil cooler or can I use a different aftermarket oil cooler? Will I need an oil cooler for a daily street setup?
3). Will a uel header be compatible?
4). Does it work with a 6AT?

I'm ways away from getting this but I'm definitely looking to go FI in the future. I'm thinking either this or JRSC.
1 fairly plug & play , yet better let it done by a pro if you aren't one! cutting will be needed for the HKS Engine oil cooler if you want one, as it sits in the wheel well. Other options are possible, but this one is the best as everyhting has been routed with HKS v2 piping in mind.

2 well, see 1

3 yes, but EL is the best option, UEL will drastically lower the performance, on a V2 setup, UEL headers typicaly score 20-25hp less, that is what SCREEN's boss usually see on the dyno.

4 yes totally works on AT, yet the results won't be as high, more losses in the transmission
