Default For what use? Autocross .. prolly a K04 kit, Dahlback or AWE. For track use

probably an APR Stage III or a Dahlback 280-300 hp kit. To impress your friends on the street .. probably a Camaro or Mustang

Default Dahlback dosent have tuning for a regular K04-15, im somewhat pissed....

TJM says i ahve to get their "special" K04 so id have to get their $2100 K04, their damn expensive injectors ($800?) and a FMIC, i wouldnt buy theirs, ill prob get one of those forge universal ones and make the piping myself (alum manderel bends and my friend tig welds) so about $3400 for 260-270 hp and 300-310 ft/lbs i guess that isnt HORRIBLE but i wish i could use K04-15, save 1300$ and get 20 less hp and 20-30 less ft/lbs, oh well, i ahve quite a bit more time on my turbo.
END OF RANT.

Default lol, i know, but ill cross that road when i get there....

i figure i have atleast another 2 years out of this K03 sport, who knows what situation i will be in at that time, my car will probably have 160,000+ miles on it and it will be long paid off. Ill prob seriously consider building a 2.0 and a GT28RS or if i stick with dahlback (wich id realy liek to if i have the $$) do the 360 or 420 hp kit.

MTM makes a pretty smooth kit as well. All good options.
