Maaaaan, I hate you for showing me that fmic kit you got...my car isn't even on the road yet and I'm already considering getting the same one. Mine's not filling the airdam as much as I wanted it to.
How much was it after taxes and shipping?

Here's how mine looks...its the GReddy 24V with 3pc GReddy piping, originally sold for $1199 USD on the Trust/GReddy site, yours for only $250!  ;D
(haha and NO! I didn't pay $1199 for it, I got it off Ritchie Hui years ago for the same price I'm asking and never installed it till now)



Btw, that's my car model Tommy...don't mind him.  :P

Lol, it's a VRSF kit. I got the whole kit brand new from a member a couple years back. I think I got it for around $300-$320 if I remember correctly.   Super pleased with the fitment, look and quality of the clamps and couplers. Definalty recommend it.

I replaced my Greddy 24v for this kit.  Confirmed 470whp no issues.  Why pay more?

Well, did the first oil change after 5000 km's on her so far. Car is running great! Mounted my pillar pods along with autometer boost/ air fuel/ voltage gauges. Still need to wire them in and hook up the boost/vac line still.

Pretty much got all the water leaks from the hatch area fixed. Just one slight leak coming from the vent doors at the right rear. Have to remove the whole Damn bumper to get at that one tho :( mehhh.

Another positive note got some great gas mileage (for a 2g awd lol) but managed 9.8liters per 100km on my last tank of gas. Changing the recirc pipe inside the intake, and replacing the thermostat helped a lot. But mainly, I just drove it like a granny.
