Piece of cake install except if you got the big coolant pump that needs to go behind the passenger headlight ,, i did one on a buddys car and it was a pain to drill the necessary holes to mount it there ( have ALOT of drill bits handy) otherwise pretty simple and around 365 at the wheels ---- his hood also didnt fit due to the pulley hitting it a bit --- look into that if you dont have a cowl hood

Subsequently my pockets are not that deep, I am selling my Pro-M Meter 855mm calibrated for stock injectors, also selling my Dragon Plenum as it is no longer needed with the KB kit, and the Diablo Predator Tuner b/c the kenne bell chip overides all.

Yeah what they neglected to tell you is this...It must be tuned by a professional to get anywhere close too those numbers. If you do it yourself...It probably won't bring out half the potential....I had to get mine's tuned by Roush Performance in Spokane, Washington and they charged the **** out of me.

I found some links for you as to what your expected to gain with a good tune..Hope this helps ya

So the whole ECU tune does not take care of it? Thanks for the links.

That may work for you...But honestly you might still want to have a professional look at it, if your mechanical skills aren't above average. I wanted to install mine myself....But i just didn't have the skills...
