mohdparts sells it for $3400

He isn't always the cheapest, but he has the latest kits, and great customer service (You can even chat with him on AIM).

His turbo kits have the updated Ultimate fuel management, not the older emanage blues. you might get the older stuff elsewhere.

but as I said, most places likely still have the old greddy kit in stock.

the price went up with the ultimate upgrade kit. But some sites sell by full MSRP, so it's hard to judge by price alone.

that can be used with the old emanage blue kits. The Ultimate doesn't work with it.

edit: the "e-manage programmer" functionality will not work with anything besides emanage blue. It will still function as a boost controller.

for a boost controller? I bought mine for $200 used (see my sig). I haven't done a whole lot of research on the topic, so someone else will have to chime in.

You get more HP out of the newer kit with the ultimate rather then the old e-manage correct? And does your boost control work good

IIRC it makes a little more power, but the biggest advantage is probably it's ability to make your motor run smooth and not blow up.

you'll want a boost controller.

try reading this for a general idea on what items you might want to consider buying:

The first thing I bought after I got my kit was a boost gauge.
