The original numbers my car put down was 268 whp and about 280 tq. They have sold quite a few kits all over but to people who dont really publish it on scionlife. I know of 2 other people here in illionis other than me.
They do great work and i love their kit. I have had it on now for about 2 yrs and 50k miles later still no problems. Im actually thinking about taking my car back to them to get more work done. They know what they are doing. I think they make one of the best kits that put down the most power from just a bolt on kit with only 7lbs of boost.

I know there are a few people on here with that kit. I know they had bad experiences but i believe that was with the first gen kit that came out a few years ago. i know there was a post from them last year sometime saying they where making a new kit but never heard anything if it was finished. I have heard terrible things about the s-afc with our cars. But GL with it if it works.

I have the stage 3. Im not certain as to what the differences are between the kits. I know one of them being that the stage 3 has a Dual ball bearing turbo and some other things. My management is S-afc and i have had no problems. Only issues i have had were the old design with the down pipe would crack but that was when driven during cold weather and from heating and cooling so fast. I fixed that with their new open dump design. Sometimes the stock ECU trys to fight the S-afc and ill feel a slight hesitation and a few small oil leaks out of some fittings but then again my kits is 2 yrs old and has 50k on it so its bound to happen.
I have talked to other guys with the same kit and no big issues other than a guy from ohio had issues with the down pipe also. Ultimately a standalone will be much better which is what im planning on doing.
I am running on stock internals. I have and full 2.5 turbo back exhaust and now running at about 8 lbs of boost. I havent dynoed in a while but im sure im pushing a lil more.

I have the 3431RE dual ball bearing turbo.

No issues with the dezod black box (no hesitation and good fuel curve before 4000 rpms) and great throttle response with Synchronic BOV. Had a HKS SSQV, but fluttered all the time.

also, stock internals and 1st gen SP downpipe(2.5) and 3" open exhaust (dumps mid car)

actually, i forgot about the small crack on the manifold between the engine flange and the pipe. looks like there wasnt enough welding done there but not a major issue. cant always be perfect.
