If you are chasing every last bit of HP then it's worth it. Most guys just push a little more boost to get more HP. $900 is a lot for and extra 30-40hp maybe I'm guessing! Just my .02

That was turbo though. The wastegate will compensate for the the increase in VE and spin the turbo harder, centri will not.

936 rwhp. 14 psi. Take the intake apart and I check the seal because I have had some come in with the seal not installed properly. I loctite all the bolts and have run with it. Tested up to 20 psi and worked just fine. I dont recommend anything over that due to the runners trying to come apart.

I have seen at least that on 750rwhp cars, and more on the TQ numbers.

You should get one if you want to keep up with the RPM boys this year in True street...

Ok, I have seen that kit to move it to the front. What are you using to plug the hole in the rear then?

Here's mine moved to the front. All i ran in the back were the lines to the brake booster. They give you the option to drill the back or front for the sensor.
