This kit is alllll you need to get spooling. I am a previous dezod stage I user, and the kit was ALL i needed. However, the kit has changed much since my day but it has changed ONLY for the better. The change to AEM over trust's emanage, revision of the recirculating wastegate dump (slip in to solid), change in turbocharger manufatur (oldschool was turbonetics). Dezod's kit give you EVERYTHING and keeps the kit simple enough that any average joe with a toolbox can install the kit in their garage or driveway. I did mine myself with very basic turbo experience. The kit even has a basic enough fuel map pre-loaded into the system that will allow the car to crank and make it's way to a tuner. i'm straying away from the point, but yes, the kit is designed to bolt directly onto factory exhaust plumbing and will work with your current exhaust work as long as you retained the factory flange that connects the s-pipe to the mid-pipe

In case you don't know, you will lose your Injen CAI (the kit comes with an intake & filter). Your biggest issue will probably tapping your oil pan. From what I hear, it really is a PIA to take off. Also, you will want to get some gauges to monitor your engine. If you go with only three, I would suggest boost, egt, and a wideband (a/f ratio).

It's really not that bad if you know the secret to getting that stinker off. Razor blades! Lightly tap them in to break the factory sealant. Do not try to pry it off with a screw driver or anything like that because the aluminum base is a very pliable metal which you'll scuff up. When you go to reinstall the pan red RTV silicon sealant IS YOUR BEST FRIEND, along with a bit on the threads of the oil feed, return fittings, and pressure sending T block.
