Oh and to add, at the time, shipping costs ranged from 430USD to 270USD. the more expensive being with UPS the least being with USPS. USPS will always be your cheapest option, but sometimes OS vendors dont like using them because they sometimes lack quality assurance and are header to deal with incase of disputes.

luke what was the hardest part of the install you think?
seems like it would be pretty easy to bolt on except for the tapping of the oil pan (obviously need to take it off, drill holes and reassemble), connecting dp to exhaust (Cheap at exhaust shop), anything else that is a major hassle.
to someone who can do a fair bit of work on their car themselves it shouldnt be too hard? just wondering as ill prob be doing it myself with some mates.

sum is the hardest and you need to re-drill the the GReddy log manifold holes a bit as the D16Z6 witch this kits made for has a slightly different off-set

Before i installed my greddy kit, i had previously only done an oil change on my car. Oh and made a custom CIA with PVC piping.
But i did research, i researched the install for about 6months. I purchased every tool and every fluid i needed beforehand. Cost around $500 for repco gear but i had zero tools/stuff beforehand.

h3 harness or rememebr to get the ignition cable for the emanage blue.. .
If u plan on boosting it higher, the ignition cable is a must.
get the greddy kit with the cooler and piping included, turn out to be round about the same price as custom piping n cooler.

That's correct
The e-manage comes per-tuned with a safe base line map for 5psi but its tuned using just the AFR and thus you won't have the tuning control needed to run higher boost safely plus no VTec crossover point control.
The H-3 ignition harness gives you complete control by allowing to tune via the maps instead of just AFR plus VTec crossover.
The H-3 is PnP no soldering needs and enables all options available with e-manage blue..
As Weq said, research is the key..
I did about two years research before even choosing what kit to buy..
I have to disagree with Fo55il about get'n the kit with the FMIC and piping.
It was about $800 bucks extra when I got my kit so I didn't bother and got my stuff off eBay well the piping anyway, worked out to $340 delivered.
But if the kits cheap with the Intercooler upgrade go for it lol

guess im different to look cuase hardest thing i found was wiring, which i got a mate to help me with. with the sump just took it off and welded a socket into the sump. oil lines are also abit annoying, but other then that... not really to much to worry about, its very simple if u are any bit mechanical i would just do it urself, be a good learning curve and at least that way u no what has been done to the car... and u appreciate it more

or while its gettin done be around pik up things.

Ask the seller to put Warranty Return on the box so you don't have to pay tax..
Doesn't work all the time though
