I got my kit put on and tuned mid July. I have put about 2000 miles on the kit so far. No heat issues as of yet, I do have it ceramic coated and heat wrapped which is not included in the price of the kit it is just an extra thing to keep the heat down.

I didn't relocate anything. The only thing you would need it seems like is just a fuel pump.

I didn't install the kit I had Forged do the install and tune so I can't really say how easy it would be for you to install it.

As far as the tranny and diff, everything is holding up fine. I have done about 25 ish launches since I have been turbo and probably a total of around 100 launches including NA. That being said I am going to put in a new final drive and a upgraded LSD so I can be in gear longer during the 1/4. Haven't had any tranny issues at all yet, but only time will tell.

I daily drive my car currently so I mean really only time will tell. The kit itself is holding up just fine.

one says its a 500 hp intercooler, another says its a 600hp, then another says 750....?

maybe they can chime in, because for the price its still an option for me as well, i just don't like inconsistencies... im also not seeing the 2.5 piping, i thought it was 2? skim through those, alot of differing info. I'd call them yourself and see.
In this case, go by the latest info. Couple of your links was to the original prototype build on my car. Since then Forged has updated the turbo and the intercooler to allow the customer to reacher even higher numbers if they choose to. Saying it's only a step up from greedy is unfounded. This kit can reach similar power as most of your ELT kits out there.

I've had my car turbo'd for over a year now, even though it's not my DD, I still almost put 10k on the car with majority being with group drives and a few trips to the drags. The kit is still running great, and eventually I might upgrade my IC to their current version and switch to a GTX down the road.

Calling them is generally the best way to get all the info. Dave will answer all your questions.
