As soon as I am done at the dealership. I am getting my Window looked at. Something in the tracking is scratching the Window. And since I paid for the warranty I might as well use it. As soon as I'm done I'll send you a message.

My kit was just over $6,600...I just priced it on P&L's website. HKS is a brand that charges you for a name...not performance. They have slid down the butt crack of overpriced Japanese "Name" parts and provide little to no benefit or quality over some of the US, European, and Australian kits.

The big issue you need to sort out is "What do you want from your turbo kit?"

Do you want big power?

Full Blown (FBM) and P&L Motorsports would be my top picks just for ease of install, and the absurd power levels the FBM kit's are pumping out. The P&L is very similar to FBM and will likely break 500 WHP without sweating.

Do you want a mild boost for easy streetability?

AVO seems to be the go to kit at the moment for a mild 80-100WHP boost. I believe Treadstone is also in that boat as well.

There's also newcomers to the table that people are excited about. JDL based here in Phoenix is making a twin scroll setup that looks pretty damn amazing. P-tuning also has an interesting kit coming soon.

It's pretty tough to tell you what to go for, but the biggest thing about going FI in these cars is there are a bunch of things not included in a turbo kit that you will want to get. Clutches, wider wheels/tires, suspension, gauges, tunes, etc. etc.

It all adds up and once you get bit by the FI bug it is harder to shake than a drug addiction...especially with this car. There's always something new and shiny and cool coming out almost weekly...

Does anyone offer upgraded pistons, rods, bearings, headstuds, etc for these motors? JDL's kit looks badass and was looking forward to competing against their car at the Shootout but they had some unfortunate luck the night before...

Look at crawford performance...they have some built longblocks that are pretty nice, I'm sure you could get in touch with them and see what they are using. There's actually a bunch of manufacturer's making engine internals for this car...as long as you don't want to do anything to the heads.

I made some out of titanium because the boss told me to practice using the new machine. I'm pretty sure we still all of it. I can't sell it but it is scrap so I can give it away.
