strange, why would they deliberately make the intake piping so long and run it over the hot exhaust manifold, and require a 180 degree bend?

Need a closer look but yeah the design is non-conventional.
From the second picture it looks internally wastegated and it utilizes the factory air box so that tells you something. Also they don't tell what size injectors they run. I don't see room for upgrade with this kit.

Well somebody be a guinea pig and try it out.

Yea, after looking at it, I am quite amazed it didnt do well. Guess they didnt advertise well because that is one of the best looking kit I have seen.

Yeah this kit is old. And one, it's poorly designed. Who ever designed this kit needs to go read Maximum Boost.
