Mmmm. Let's see. 230 rwhp or 370 rwhp? All that horsepower and I still get 22 mpg. Yes, its worth it. It was around $42 per horsepower. Other options: TB/Plenum $100-150 per horsepower. LTs/x-pipe $120-150 per horsepower. Superchargers are cheap horsepower.

its totally worth ithowever you will needsuspension mods,tires, etc to have a solid traction car. i recommend buying a slightly used one if you can find one. I would only buy it in person though.

If you got $6k I would go with a Kenne Bell. Hell of alot of fun!

Are you going to have a shop do the install? KB instructions are great, if you can turn a wrench you could do it yourself in 2days.
