Any changes to the exhaust system included? I have a stock OEM exhaust with Gundo'd mufflers. Would love to keep the mufflers.

I believe the competition's turbo system changes out the cats and mufflers, possibly headers too.

I was quoted $2000 for installation, but if you're able to get a friend together with access to a lift, installation will be easier than on your back and by yourself . This installation is not for the faint of heart. It is not like changing your air filter or Plenum. The hardest parts that i found were installing the injectors, as they were in a tight place, and aligning the serpentine belt on the S/C. Another hand to help you would make the job easier, in my experience. You have to send your ECU to VF for them to flash. Instructions were pretty straight forward, but time consuming. End result is worth it though...

There are no changes to the exhaust system.

LOL...so true. My dealer feels the same way with my car; they call it "one of their favorite Hot Rods". Good basic kit, but can be improved upon .
