If you noticed Scalbert's dyno there is a good 40whp to be gained from 5400RPM to 7000RPM at a given boost-level. According to this theory the next kit should net 395whp @ ~6psi. Since that is optimistic, I went for 20+whp... around 365'ish whp.

Okay folks... Kit #1 is complete and here is a picture of all the fabricated items (minus the intercooler which is already mounted in the car):

Aside from some prep work and installing the injectors, everything is ready for install. Kit #2 should be ready in ~1 week or slightly longer.
