Make mine black and let's look at sizing for best combo - "low" power (550-600whp) I'll be making with this kit and AZ heat for cooling.

Black is easy, for that much power the base setup is perfect. S251s. Shop car has ran the HUGE FMIC for 2 years now without any issues. If you want to road race maybe you want the smaller one but if it is a street/drag/fun car the big one works great even in 120f temps.

Is this a kit a DIY'er could install?
If so how is the kit warranty affected?
Cheers

If you have general know how, yes, it just bolts right on. No warranty issues for self install. Kevin@AGP is still working on final picture instructions for the DIY person so for now the dealer you buy it from will walk you through it on the phone if anything is confusing. Basically mount adapters, attach turbos, attach wastegates, attach oil lines, mount piping/fmic, etc. Nothing major or hard. No cutting, grinding, drilling, tapping, etc.

The vacuum lines come all labeled and precut to length. Just attach them where it says to stick it. I would say a solid 8-10 hours start to finish. I would call AGP direct or FSP, ADM, CPR, CMS, JRE, Lethal, etc if you have any other questions. Any site vendor should be able to get you a kit as long as they call up AGP to order it and are a real shop.

Once again, I'm just a shop groupie. I don't actually work there contrary to what many believe.

Now that AGP is a site sponsor I can post pictures like this. Kit comes with zr1 plugs, 80lbs injectors, BAP or ZL1 pump, every hose, clamp, nut, gasket, etc needed.

Come on Nancy, Push that pig! Once you get the right cam in there you should be able to get 700rw without a problem on the stock bottom end with a TT setup. You know what Alex and I have done and where we are, plus you've seen first hand how we beat the hell out of them. They're tough and can take a pounding.

I may have to fly out to go for a ride down the track with you once you get this installed.
