LOL first price i saw was 360$ i almost crapped my pants........... then i realized it said SAVE $360, does that kit come with everything you need? and what psi are you running?.... one more questiong too lol. any computer work needed to run that turbo?.......... im seriously considering this now that i got my taxes back. ive check out prochargers supercharger they seem to range the same price and looks easier to set up but doesnt come with everything you need for the set up.

Mine isn't on yet . But guys have got 570 rwhp with 15 psi . Yes you need to do tuneing ...fuel upgrades ,etc. Some go to the 749 ECM as it has provisions for boost in the code
