I too am insterested. I am thinking with the limitations of a tip, all I need is a flash.

you will need a tune and probably a 5 bar as well.. at least that's the minimum in our case...

I just swapped out my K24/18G for the K16s. All i can say is, wow. I was thinking about going to the alpha, but Tym/Dave recommend the billet K16. I am 100% happy with the setup. The spool is amazing and the boost curve is very linear. Honestly, seat of the pants wise i feel like the car picked up 75-100 more hp. Driveability is similar to the K24 but with the boost hitting sooner and harder. I also feel the the k16 pull harder to redlline than the K24s. Lastly, i have the SPI exhaust and headers and the car sounds like a beast with the K16s.

Boca if you need video or anything else let me know. Hey if your in Cleveland area, your more than welcome to take my car for a spin.

Neil, do you have a dyno of my car?

Thanks
Paul

I haven't this year due to my busy travel. Whens the next one? Would love to try a 3rd to 5th gear pull to compare.

I went to the K16s for more drivable power. I just wanted something with faster spool and I worried the alpha were overkill.

Both setups were tuned by SPI.
