Well you got me there. However, I didn't need anything else including
someone to install it. When you got the kit what other things did you need
to buy? I know for a fact that the stock computer and injectors can't supply
enough fuel. Also the twin screw compressers cost alot more to make. You
cannot haul with a centrifugal, or at least they don't help much with
pulling. How much average boost do you get over the rpm range? What was
the total cost to get everything working right?
I not trying to argue which one is better, but you get what you pay for.
You paid alot less but there is a trade off. I bet after everything was said
and done you still paid over $3000.
