I've still got my part-time boost going, so until I make my decision I'm going to live vicariously through you and your WORKS kit.

Got ya man lol The ESC was definitely nice and is a good in between. Yeah, the SBD kit is a good value as far as performance per dollar that's for sure. I just need something that is going to get me where I need to be everyday with minimal problems.

But, yes being poor definitely played into my overall decision ha ha.

New Manifolds already have the new joint, just loosen the wastegate arm one turn, no issue on the wastegate o-ring(never even heard of any issues with this), what CEL issue? and back firing through intake would be an instillation issue not an issue with the kit.

Interested to see how you like the stage 2 works kit though.

It's just all things that I have seen on their facebook page. As I said I think the kit's a great buy, I just felt more comfortable going with this. I am interested to see how the kit progresses though and the oft350 add on should be awesome.

It was $1550 when I got for the base kit, then an additional $190 for the 1.5 dump pack conversion, and $100 or so for the batteries. So it ended up costing under 2k total. I think it has gone up slightly though since then.

Hey, do you ever come to our local 86 meets in Cincinnati? We have an all Ohio meet this weekend. You should come out if you can.

Would be able to upload a Video of your Ikon Motorsports exhaust setup so I can make the comparison between the sound quality of it vs the invidia? thanks.

No, but I am going to try and change that. I have a very hectic schedule between work and school I have little time for anything, and usually that goes to my girlfriend. I do plan to make it out soon though, I'd love to meet everyone and see their cars.

There's actually a video I posted one page back. It's just a rev up video but it gives you an idea, and that's full catless with a borla uel.
