As far as stuff breaking, i'm sure you can set your mind at ease with a tranny cooler and as long as you don't beat up on it everyday

i tried emailed needboost.com but got the same error three times that it delivery failed. and it does matter since the exhaust header on the EX is shorter then the exhaust manifold on the LX so the manifold/turbo/downpipe in the turbo kit would have to be different lenghts. and then that would screw with the piping and stuff.

Eternal Blue, you have the TSI kit? You dont have any idea what type of HP yourmaking, do you? I think you said you just tuned it yourself for now. I am really thinking about getting this kit. It is 2599 right now from that site you posted. I wish it was a week later so I could order something nice. Come on taxes!

There was a review for this kit on Super Street for the d17a2, and they said the company promises 195hp and 200lb ft of torque at the fly, so my guesses would be with the T25, around 150-160ish whp, and 160ish wtq @6psi, i dunno what power i'm putting down with 9lbs but i did have to change out my clutch because the stocker wasn't holding it, and from what i've heard, the OEM clutch can hold up to 200wtq. When i changed out the clutch, the oem one wasn't worn at all.
