    Waiting for the KO3 to die completely and then I'm gonna pick one of these up. Better start beating on it harder so it dies already!

    So....from reading the whole thread, I've noticed that maybe this isn't quite a whole kit? I could be very wrong on that part. I'm just trying to figure out what to add onto the price if I was to buy the kit...I'm not trying to give you a hard time. I'm just feeling like I would buy the kit and need all this stuff.
    -Upgraded injectors
    -Upgraded fuel pump
    -Upgraded Rods
    -Upgraded software
    So do I need this stuff to make the kit complete? Also what type of exhaust upgrade would I be needing to run this setup somewhat effectively? The only reason I haven't upgraded my exhaust is because I hate loud exhausts.
    Thanks for your time, not trying to be a pain!

    It's certainly the most complete kit available aside from APR's. There are other 'kits' out there that don't even include an air filter or studs/nuts/gaskets I don't know how that would be considered a kit at all

    check your PM

    all the HARDWARE you need will be there. just pick your SOFTWARE (whichever you prefer) and get what injectors the software calls for along with a walbro 255 inline fuel pump and you will be set. i would say if you're going BT run a 3" exhaust nothing less be ready to do a clutch install very soon after LMAO it's one of those good problems an upgraded front mount or sidemount ic will be a good idea too

    That's quite a bit of dough for your kit, but seemingly value priced for what is offered in the kit. What kind of gains could I expect in terms of hp, torque? I would also consider going to 630 injectors...

    20psi with our kit and proper software will net 2 x stock HP levels or more

    Kit's are going up $200 in 42 days

    I found, after going through the thread, the answer to my query. Thank you and I will be hitting you up again when I'm ready to do the work. I have a lot of work to do! Mostly, beefing up the bottom end to handle the additional power.

    To fit the RHD cars you need our re-location pipe as pictured. All else works just fine.

    OK sounds good so there is alot of room for a 3" DP then?! between the brake servo an the manifold runner, i wasnt sure as my engine is in my house an the car is at my unit so hard to tell if all works without it been in the car. Can you send me a link to buy the relocation pipe can you still run a pipe downwardsie screamer pipe.?

    We generally only sell them with kits. If you'd like one please email sales@ctsturbo.com and we'll send you a quote including shipping. We make everything for Kinetic, including their downpipes, kits, etc.

    Thanks,

    I am looking to do the upgrade but i wanted to forge internals before getting the kit, Do you know about how much it will end up being to forge internals? dont need exact amount just looking for a rough number you can pm me if you would rather do that
