I'm sure a thread popped up about this kit a while ago and Topher had good things to say about it.

Good intake temps from logging, it's a very good core.

The fitting is good, it's no cheap eBay kit that's for sure. Clamps are quality stainless mikalor, they don't rust and there's none of this hose popping off nonsense. It just works.

I got the 2" kit known as the street kit, they rated it for circa 400 bhp, I will soon put this to the test, I bought it thinking it would provide the least lag but in hindsight if I knew I was going for this sort of power level I would have looked at the race unit with the 2.5" piping.
