YES.
Finally, I AM DONE. I am soooo tired and I am at work now and I can’t see front of me
.
I will post more later on. However, I will give you guys a lot of info now. The kit is work of art itself no doubt. The car is working now, no oil leaks no water leaks no issues except my ECU is lost and my service engine is on and I don’t know why?? I am taking my car to AutoZone to get some read on this. I did not push hard on the car at all and my WG sounds soooooo sweet like HEHEHEHEH. I love it. but I cant go fast and I have been switching gears between 2000 and 3000 rpm. I will be installing AFC next week with my boost gauges. Al will be here some time end of July and I won’t be able to give you guys any feed back about spooling or power before then. The kit fits with no problems except very very few.
1- I had to shave about 2 MM from my AC where the down pipe goes down. ( took me exactly 2 min )
2- The down pipe is work of art starting with welding ending with size. However, it does not clear the cross bars( you will need spacers).
3- the WG dump pipe that connects to the DP was of by 1 centimeter. ( had to bend the pipe took me 30 min)
other than that the kit was a perfect bolt on no issues it does clear the radiator by far with no heat issues and the parts are high quality made as well. I will post a lot of pics later on today stay tuned.

Az3ar, have you seen this thread?
Wanted: EVO with ATP turbo kit
Shiv is looking for 2-3 Evo's with the ATP kit. It's ironic since I was up there yesterday and discussed the possiblity of doing the ATP kit and having Vinshu custom tune it with Lamtron that very day. I guess I'm lucky Shiv didn't mention this when I talked to him, I might have stopped at ATP on my way home and who knows what kind of damage that would have done to my check book.

Az3ar,
I'm sure Al would gladly refund your money. It is not like you waited til the last second to back out.
Since Nestea mentioned it, you would be much better off to get the Xede, but it is not necessary. You can use your AFC on an Xflash just as easy as a Dynoflash. Of course, if you go with the Xede, you shouldn't bother with the AFC - just return if or sell it.
