Coating the factory headers wonder how much it helps under hood temps. Looks like the air inlets would sit right below the headers.

Underhood temps aren't bad at all. Factory heat shields still on headers unless someone removes them, and the adapters are ceramic coated, same with the turbine sides, and downpipes. I wouldn't be surprised if underhood temps were lower.

"This is by far the most professional kit I have ever come across. "

AGP is like a Vortech, Procharger, Magnacharger, Turbonetics. They are a parts manufacturer, not a car shop. They don't do installs, just build badass parts. The goal was OEM quality/finish and top notch performance. Something that can be bolted on and driven for the next 100k without issues.

I do not have a good test comparison to show you data. However, when we are going this far into the build, to add a few hundred dollars into the build for the coating is a nice touch since all of AGP's stuff is already very nicely coated, mine as well make it match.

This is something you cannot argue with!

I need to go get a few of those catchcans that come with the kit to put on my car. Thanks for reminding me by showing me the pictures of them. They make some nice catchcans.

Kit comes with catchcans, plugs, map sensor, etc. You can have a bone stock car to a 650+rwhp car with nothing else done.

I still have not seen the pricing structure, options and what comes with a kit.

Could AGP or Matt, provide an official price and what the options are?

Thanks!

Z Rocks: Since this is not the sponsor section we cannot post pricing in this thread, you can PM me... The instructions are not officially done yet, so there is no "official release" we can sell the kit but just a FYI it will only have step by step ways of how to install items, and bunch of pictures. It's really straight forward install, but just giving you a heads up.

Guys anyone that wants pricing it would be a great help if you can PM me directly with your transmission, if you need fueling injectors/bap, zip code, and then I can reply back with a good quote. I'm fielding 15+ PM's a day right now on the AGP stuff, so it's definitely the most popular questioned product for us right now.

No CARB certification.

Let me just mention that you pop the hood on this kit and you'd have to know what you are looking for to know the car is not stock. You could cut up and keep your stock air box and it would really look stock.

Less than a S/C to make 600rwhp
A lot less than a S/C to make 700rwhp

If you have headers/cai/etc sell it. It comes with everything need for a bone stock car to make big power.
