Around 5k. Amber Performance fitted it for me in the end as I just didn't have the time to do it myself. Made a shade over 300bhp at the flywheel. Its great actually. Still feels NA. Hasn't ruined the way the car drives at all. It now just feels like I have a much bigger engine. Very happy with it.

Off the top of my head - Placement of the turbo. Which equates to: Cleaner/simpler install with more of an OEM look shorter length of the header pipework (Turbo dependent) faster spooling and less lag lower centre of gravity lighter system Shorter oil/water feeds/returns less hot exhaust pipe near the belts less heat soak and better air flow as the turbo isn’t wedged up between the top of the engine and the bonnet I’ve been buying on/off from Fensport for about 20 years, so if they use the AVO kit then I trust their knowledge/experience/opinion. AVO’s kit is really well designed and built. I’ve seen/heard of quality issues on a number of other kits. Lots of US tuners are also using the AVO kit and making lots of reliable power. I only chose to go SC only as I thought the limited supplies of the Cosworth package along with their huge development/testing process (plus their name and reputation) meant it would retain more future value and in 20-30 years may even go up in value.

@GT86Reece Thank you for sharing your honest feedback and experience mate! This is what this forum is for. Not be a positive echo chamber but a honest feedback mechanism. It is unbelievable that you have had the car with TD for 16 mths ( 1 yr +) of its life and that the car drinks oil like petrol. Scares the life out of me and makes me realise why people stay with big brands for modding. Sent from my SM-G781B using Tapatalk
