Tuning we can always go to ESS in Arizona. If I get the M kit I'd make the drive to ESS in Arizona to get the tune/install but, honestly with ESS's supercharger out there would have to be substantial power gains for less cost (since ESS already provides the tuning in their kit).

HPF makes some nice stuff thats for sure..
Unfortuantely, for us in the Si segment, we have N52 engines, which there isn't a single forced induction part out there (at least that I can find.. ). The 3.0 has an M54 engine... I'm honestly not sure if that makes for software of hardware differences between the two, all I know is that we Si's can get smoked by the heavily modified 3.0's, and that sucks! lol If ESS made a compatable s/c kit for the 3.0Si, and if it was reasonably priced, I'd have one RIGHT NOW! I prefer turbo's, but I'd take anything that works...
