    Cheaper route?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I want to go BT and am currently only apr stage 1. Everything else is stock I'm aiming for ~280 awhp on 93.

    Contemplating getting the following and want to know if I should take a different route.

    (All from ecode)
    ATP gt71r complete solution $2800 (yeah I know, probably won't see 280awhp on 93)
    NS xtreme turbo intake hose $270 w/ gtrs adapter
    Forge 007P $135
    APR FMIC $944
    NS stainless Cat-back $849
    SPS3 $349

    Just wanted to know if there are places to get these things cheaper, or if I should even swap products out for other ones.

    Also only need the SPS because I use 93 octane only, could I just get an SPS2?

    ...THANKS
    - Scott

    Does the "complete solution" come with software?

    Your best bet is to search the classifieds and get some of this used. You will save a good amount of cash that way.

    Don't forget the clutch... I always forget to factor that in when doing BT "what if" scenarios.
    Bottom line = f'ing expensive

    Skip the APR FMIC, they dont fit very well with factory bumpers nor is it that great of a design
