Even with headers and software the gain is not siginicant enough to justify the extra 3k spent i would rather save up to rebuild engine with a supercharger or simply get a faster car.
I have spent 2200 (not 6 or 700) on my supersprint setup and think it is money well spent. I don't want to comment on BMS quality since I have not personally seen it but supersprint is top shelf. For the sound alone, money well spent. Anybody looking for big power gains on this car needs to go buy FI or buy a car with FI stock add a tune to it.


I will say that a full exhaust, gears and a tune is a huge improvement over stock...it is not cheap but nothing is for these cars.
