this.... term is responsive and a pleasure to deal with if you have a choice and access to HPT. no regrets at all and everyone will echo his work is amazing.

I never did a stock 60-100 cause my turbo went just after I bought the HP tuners from you. And currently my car is broken with no clutch in a shop back home so I can not do any now. My clutch went when I was doing fuel trims after getting my new intercooler. I was gonna send you a copy of everything once i get it back here

As far as exhaust TurboXS is on sale downpipe and cat backs can be had for less....email:

raj@turboxs.com


I am paying today for a downpipe and FL exhaust ....keep in mind they will not have the FL until October.
RFL is available ....difference is..much louder 1 resonator instead of two like FL....

Good luck...

Please for the love of god DO NOT buy anything Treadstone. Their **** is junk, and does not fit right.

Injen Upper CP is great product.
I'd buy MPX Intercooler or ZZP's
ZZP Lower CP. I had Treadstones and it was terrible fitment and I ruined my TMAP cause they didn't drill the hole right which ripped the O-ring.
I bought Treadstone intake as I thought it fit good, well it was a huge PITA to get to fit right. I cut it in half and made an SRI out of it since my MAF is relocated to my lower CP.

Pretty good price. I have never tuned this particular K-04+ but if it is larger than the regular K-04+ it should do well. Ecaulks K-04+, back when Vahdyx owned it, dynoed around 360whp and around 400 wrtq SAE corrected on a dynojet on 91 octane with an aggressive tune I did.
