    okay so a dyno in 2-3 weeks...i'm assuming we should expect it to be out shortly after the dyno then?

    Great to hear. I got my money set up for the headers, and should be up there for the turbo.

    Can't wait!

    Last I heard the header was for NA applications only. Why buy it when you plan on buying the turbo kit?

    Oh so there is no use of buying headers if we getting turbo?

    nope. The exhaust manifold (headers) will be different. you could in-theory still buy the headers for the "now" performance and just sell your headers to someone else who plans on staying N/A once you buy the Turbo-kit

    but you'd be wasting money thinking you can have both. not possible

    Oh I see. Thanks. I'm not one that would know much "engine" wise, so I didn't have any idea.

    Yeah, I can always buy it for now, and sell it. My cousin also has a lancer, I can probably just sell it to him.

    But I gotta think about it.

    IMO you are probably better off saving the money and not purchasing the N/A header if you have every plans on going turbo. By the time you get the N/A header and get it installed and the have to uninstall and then sell it you are not going to never make up that money back.

    So what are the specs on the Kit? Turbo, FMIC size, Premade Maps?, does it come with a Downpipe or is that up 2 us?

    i belive they will release that information after the kit is complete and right after the dyno...they dont want competitors looking at what they have
