why is this one so expensive when it looks exactly the same at the ones for 70 quid?

Mikalor clamps are the way foward, from ebay about £3 a go but believe me with even 20psi plus they wont go anywhere  :laugh:
umm setting up everything up myself just having two pipes at the front of my car chopped and reshaped so no pipes are showing  :smug:
The actuator is really easy chris on here done a really good how to tbh. Im sure someone will/can post the link?
If my car doesnt hit 235bhp atleast I will be annoyed haha

Yeah iv just read I will need yellow calib injectors I think their 308cc?
Im in two minds whether I will be happy with max of 230BHP as im running just under 200bhp now and I know the difference will be night and day between the ko3 and k03s with forge actuator.
MMmmmmm decisions , dicisions lol  :laugh:

Wazzer what sort of torque will I be looking at?
