This is a little off topic but what do you guys think of these? I'm not looking to buy them but just curious to see if anyone has heard about these

Any reason you want to change them? Stock coil packs, 2-step colder NGK Iradium plus that are properly gapped, and a reliable tune are more than enough to be efficient for ignition. I'm not saying they're bad, I've never heard of it, but it's $700 for something I've never heard of anyone changing.

iv only seen em online for sale...I suppose if you had some coilpack issues it wouldnt be a bad idea to look onto those okada coils...but so far the stockers are good enough.

I personally wouldn't even put the TT kit on, its just going to cause more frustration and agony because it won't fit, and you will have a nightmare tuning it. If I remember correctly, no one could tune the two wastegates properly on the twin scroll mani.
now ther is an idea

I'd be down for that. Hopefully i can talk to Toan ans see if he'll let me do like a payment plan.

If i go that route then Todd will feel like he'll have no obligation to get me the rest of my stuff. I want all my stuff that i paid for and then take it from there. If ish doesn't fit or things start to go wrong then i'll try and sell the parts and go towards the ptuning kit

Definitely get all your stuff. I don't know about other people who finished their kits with their own money, but I had to buy my injectors and oil hardware on my own because I didn't feel like waiting for Todd, and then Todd basically saw that as a way out of sending me those missing parts. I know A LOT of people finished their kits off because they didn't feel like waiting around, so that's even more money Todd stole.

And let Todd off the hook? I think not.

Also, how many people do you think are willing to donate, and how much? PTunings donation made a nice chunk of change, and that was to fix their race car so they could win a championship, and that was still only a few thousand dollars. And look at the raffle for that, I thought my $100 was low, and then I saw the list of donations and it's full of $5-20... It'll take one hell of a lot of people to get the $6,000 needed to buy a PTuning kit.

I'm almost positive that he wont be sending me all my stuff. The main important thing is that i want my turbo, wgs, intercooler, injectors, and fuel management. Those are the big things that i'm not going to spend money on again. The stuff that i have now are useless without any of those components. All i know is that i'm not giving up until i get my stuff from him. Its only right that i get what i paid for. We can do it the easy way or we can do it the hard way.

BOOOOoooooo(bs)

How much are you looking to sell it for? Also is it the kit with the inverted pipes? (runs over the top instead of under) My uncle owns a machine shop in Galveston so I could prolly run it down to him for something small like decking.

I am a cheap-aes...
