    OK people all the parts are now finished machining, just arranging the shipping from Alpine to us here and we will have some photos to drool over
    The answer is more power! What was the question?

    How close are the kits to being done and for sale? Do fuel pump or injectors need upgrading? How is computer modified? What about the mass air? I'm sure an upgraded meter would increase the performance with a sc. Any pricing ideas? Thanks!!!

    FWIW, all the stock bits that you make mention of work fine with the Alpine kit up to 5 lb boost.

    Fuel pump, injectors, ECM, MAF, all stock, no issues.

    That option is sometimes associated with transmissoin replacement...the next weakest link down the line.

    Greedy? There will be options Our 400K+ kilometre test mule will be getting a probgrammable ECU and boost to destruction once the base kit setup is done - although if we see 300kW at the wheels on the dyno with an undamaged engine we may stop there......or not!
