So the 500hp kit includes:

VMP Custom Tuned SCT Tuner
Steeda/FRPP 90MM Intake and larger clamp
VMP 2.57" one piece steel pulley in black
VMP 90MM replacement idler in black

I already have an SCT 2 so that takes off $200. So $629 from VMP and they can tune for my CAMs and LT's in addition to the m90?

Check out the mods in my sig and PM me if you want more info. I got the chrome closeout deal to my door back in November for 3460.00. Just an unheard of price. That was the only reason I went F/I. The price now however is back to normal at 4999.00. IMO, your better off buying the TVS. It's not much more and will allow you to grow if that's what you want to do.

I read up some at fnsweet yesterday, most people over there are going pretty nuts over the TVS. It is a beast though. I'm only looking to push the stock engine to 80% of its limit cause after getting any SC, I would not be in a good place for buying a new engine nor having it put in.

it's a pretty good deal on the r2300 considering that it's the same price for an M90+500hp kit (Jdm or VMP). Yeah, you'll be making 400whp with either kit but the R2300 will run cooler and it's a walk in the park for it on 5 psi, compared to the M90 being over spun making it hotter with 8 psi.

Don't get me wrong the M90 was a steal at $3499.00...
