Thanks Adam. You're right, I did take my time making up my mind. I did my homework and couldn't be happier with my results. It is an awesome kit. I still can't get over how it breaks all four tires lose, clawing for traction like a ravenous animal while still accelerating so hard. It's so cool lol.

glad to hear about your experience. Markski is jsut one of those guys that is a total asset for people that are trying to learn on this forum. Props to him. How much did the setup cost you in the end (if you dont mind me asking)? and finally, do you know if Todd will tune a car with k24/18g hardware that is not his own?

Mark,
The only parts I bought from Todd were waste gates, which he installed and a durametic cable. I sourced all of my parts from various places. A few were from members here on our site. Todd performed his magic on my car even though I didn't buy my stuff from him.
Sure I'll tell you what the final tab was even though I really didn't want to add everything up lol.
These are the parts:
K24/18g (ported, polished and ceramic coated), wg, Todd's Tune, Greddy, ATS triple carbon clutch, spark plugs, 5 bar fpr, durametric cable, Fabspeed exhaust (loud), various gaskets, I replaced all of my coil packs because a few were cracked, I also replaced my maf and labor installing the clutch , etc., = $14,017 The coils ran my bill up an additional $500 and the maf I think was around $270ish. So subtract around $800 and the total would have been $13,217. For that I have an incredibly fast, streetable, 650 crank hp car that's a blast to drive.
Would I do it all again.....Yep, no question I'd do it in a heartbeat. I hope this helped.
PS: I didn't have to buy diverter valves as my car had them and a V flow intake when I purchased it.

Thanks, I'm off for some lunch then a little warp drive lol.
Yes, I agree with you Gunther. These cars, with this setup ROCK!
Thanks Colorinc. How's your K24/20g setup coming along? I'm looking forward to
reading what your impressions of it is compared to the 18gs.
