Im blowing to the atmosphere.. I am running a little richer than i wanted..dies out on me at first... but when i bring my car to AMS with the stand alone i heard there is a way to tune it so that it runs efficiently ...

The reason he can vent to the atmosphere is because the BOV is before the MAS. My kit is the same way (RIPP). The MAS is pressurized, not sucked through, so the blown off air has not been measured yet. look at the pics.

i think the kit looks good... ALWAYS nice to see a new something out there!

I would be a tad worried about those IC pipes when pulling into a driveway .. but otherwise, I like it. couldn't you flip the IC over and have the pipes going down from the top rather than up from the bottom? just a thought hehe

is everything you have installed related to the kit, provided in ONE single package? what did it run you?

pretty much except inline pump and i had to modify and fab my piping cause the car wouldnt run right the way they said to do it so i had to relocate the mas like u would for a cold air intake had to use own pieces mixed with their pieces to do, but overall its a blast to hit each gear and be spooling instantly it puts ur head back, so i think it was worth the 2,800.00 for the kit.

Road/Race's pipes are not mandrel bent. Mandrel bends would result in a smooth bend that is the same diameter through the bend as the diameter of the pipe. If you look closely at the kit, the pipe narrows through the bend. They use a type of machine that will bend but not kink the pipe. It is not mandrel bent however.

So you needed to add an additional fuel pump to your setup? Would upgrading stock fuel pump to a GSX pump or Walbro pump be enough, or is inline necessary?

not sure they give u an injection control unit that comes with 2 injectors u can control for every so many rpms, but i dont use it , the kits 14:1 fmu and inline pump keep me rich even at 9 psi, an inline pump is cheap and very easy to install.
