It all depends, some people take their time and others just want to get it done. I think if one takes time to do the install, an easy weekend would do it. Some of the stuff will be preassembled...

Well, it is Sunday afternoon and I am done for the week….very tired. At this time I am just making duplicates of everything built so far. These items will stay behind for me to copy for future kits. ...

The import fees are nothing compared to those we see in Canada on packages coming from the U.S. For example, the turbo I got the other day cost me $135 at the door...good old UPS. I prefer to ship...

The kit itself will be very reliable. I have customers that make 7 hour round tips a couple of times a month, and have been doing this for almost two years. Not a single issue. Once the kit is...

Thanks guys, and on that note mid day update: Since the F.I exhaust uses OEM rubber exhaust hangers I decided that it would be wise to upgrade them. The reason for this is me not wanting any of...
