- Don't forget to add the cost of a crack-prone APS header in there - +$700.

-Don't forget to add the cost of that overpriced intake too - +$480!?!?!

-There are plenty of rotated set-ups running around without standalones.

- The APS rotated intake is a problematic design with an almost-90deg. bend just before the MAF sensor. People have been having trouble tuning idle and part trottle with it.

- Surge ports? So what - you can get surge porting on any of the GT30/35R's.

- Look at that extreme downpipe bend coming out of the turbo.

- This set-up has been available to the public for about a year and there are very few if any people putting down relatively impressive numbers (that they will show anybody anyway).

- If you wanna go big and go twin-scroll go for the Full Race manifold set-up (but it is BIG$$$)
