They will be ~£2K+vat same as JBS, but I am waiting confirmation from James on dealer pricing at the mo.

Spec's of components required will vary between cars I think to some extent to allow the kit to work properly. FMIC/3" DP/CAI for example... some cars have some of this already.

My car will be pretty much ready for the conversion, i.e will have all neccesary parts, dp,cat, fmic etc... which you can see on my sig.

I'll give you a buzz soon about it all when i call you for some bits and pieces, oil, evoshied and some other bits and pieces.


thanks.

Im interested in the evoshield also.

I've been thinking about a K03s also, but looking to get a samco TIP in the mean time. But i know that fitting this requieres some trimming for fitting to the k03.
What im worried about is paying for a Samco TIP now, and then in a few months time having to fork out for it again, when i get a K03s.

Can anyone help?
Phil you seem to know your stuff mate!

To be honest i cant see cutting the tip shorter on the turbo side would make a difference if its fitted to the ko3 or ko3s, the only reason fro cuttin it shorter is to stop the tip fouling the water lines. I dont think or hope by cutting the tip shorter would reduce the ID size of the turbo end. It looks to me as if it was a straigh bore and not tapered before bein cut.

i do like the 04 idea but im not convinsed yet till its been tryed and tested hard with no faults, so for now im going for the k03s, so as the thread says.... what can i do to mod it first? if there is anything? if not i'll just stick it on then see how the 04 turns out.

Bill with my mods and a samco tip 4bar fpr and ko3s would a CC be good?
Thats what im looking at for end of jan.

Yea it will be good, and something that can be setup to suit. If you wanted to go JBS04 at a later date you have the upgrade CC option re discount also.

so to re-set the CC to fit jbs04 (after its be set for my ko3s) how much would we be looking at? and how much is it in the first place?
I should be getting a standard ECU and selling my revoed one first.

Cheers Phil, i meant that it needs to be trimmed to avoid the water lines, i didnt know if trimming the TIP would affect the fitment of the K03s.
