a stage one non-intercooled spool kit would get you more performance than the stock msp. it would give you around 160 whp and the kit runs around 2.5k
yes teh msp has an intercooler (dinky little sidemount, i feel that it was only placed there just to say that the car was intercooled) and users have repeatedly said that it suffered from heat soak very quickly
actuallly i don't. However, I have two friends that live in the area (one has a spicy msp and the other has a mp3 stage 1) and based my knowledge from what ive gathered from them and from this forum
Doggone.... I have the Hiboost Kit (www.hiboost.com) and I do live in the GTA.
Visit our site www.toprotege.com and come out to one of our meets. We have 2 this week...and you can come take a look at my car. I have already taken out over a dozen club members in the car for a spin.
I believe we have quite a number of members in the windsor area.
There really is only (1) stage...but they do (will be) offering 2 upgrades...larger injectors and then a ECU that will control timing and Fuel. They can also sell you a variety of other things such as forged internals if you are looking for 250+WHP.
We shall see....it keeps the Second Cat....and from my extensive research...if the Haltech F10 is doing as it should (and its performing awesome) then I am "confident" that it will.
