I'm currently using rdx injectors but the system is designed around the oem ones because it doesn't use EMS. It boosts voltage to the fuel pump and uses a rising rate FPR to trick the system. So I can't use bigger injectors until I get EMS.

It's a supercharger, so boost is constant

And I will be getting EMS, but that's another 3 grand with a tune...

Sc will keep the torque curve flat and be much more reliable, some owners have 100k mi on their kits. And not one known engine failure has been reported for the Comptech kit. Boost will be low (6-7lbs) until I upgrade other parts, you have to remember that parts for this thing are $$$$$$$$. The kit retails for just under $10,000 but there's a group buy and I was able to get it for lower than that.

I agree, is there a driveshaft style dyno there? Because roller dynos tend to read about 13% lower

Hey guys, I just picked up some immaculate typeS wheels for 450 with pretty decent tires. I'm trying to order some coilovers pretty soon. Do you guys think function and forms are the best for the price? I was just gonna get some type1. What are your thoughts on function and forms?

Silver is tasty with black. Give nice contrast--as long as it's not shiny like chrome.
