Here is a qucik clip of the first start up of the V2 SQ. Had a couple of issues so we still need to replace the injectors, install the IAT and get it tuned.

I thought the kits came with new injectors, fuel pumps and fuel rails for applications... Do tell, sounds good.

There are two kits, tuner kits and complete kits. This is a complete kit that I put together. Saved me some money that way. Problem being is that the injectors I originally bought that I was told were 42#, were actually 13# so the car would not stay running. So I had to scramble to get another set of injectors. Since the 90MM MAF does not have an IAT sensor that has to be drilled into the intake tube. There was a lot more to the build then I originally anticipated so that is why the delay.

You will love it when you get it going. I hope you have good reflexes...1st gear lasts about 1.5 seconds

You can actually piece it together for about a 1/3 less then buying it as a kit. I picked up a used headunit and other items, but did buy some new stuff. Here is a quick run down on what items I had to get and what each one cost. There are a lot of forums where you can buy some good stuff.

Total was about $2400 give or take a few bucks NOT including a tune.

Used Headunit V2 SQ 875.00 Used
39# Injectors 150.00 Used
GT fuel pump 150.00 New
90mm MAF 100.00 New
Bracket assembly 269.00 New
Discharge assembly 199.00 New
Air Intake assembly 215.00 New
Oil feed line 24.00 New
Oil drain line 24.00 New
