You're an E4 in the Navy and dropping $30k on modding your car without a deep prior knowledge of what you're doing?

I've also got experience in shifter karts as well as street bikes, dirt bikes, snowmobiles, and 4-wheelers all with a higher hp/weight ratio than a 400hp 2800lb car. I just happen to ALSO have experience with high hp tuner cars. It's a different animal and I really hope you're ready for what you're getting into.

(Although to be 100% honest, after reading your last comment about your "gattlin gun" exhaust, I have my doubts about the validity of this thread)

ya i must say you are being an ass judging me on shit. i also have experience on a street bike as well being i still ride it almost every day.
i do have deep knowledge of what i am doing i just spent 2 years at a technical college.
just so you know 400hp is no longer high hp. high hp is now in the 600 range.

you saying you have experience in karting you know that those things have scary power and a crazy power band. now take that 125cc power band and double it with a 250cc twin

I'm just curious...what is a "gattlin gun muffler"? (NO, I'm not trying to be a dick, but just asking a valid question).

what im pretty much asking is for someone to school me on both the kw and the SOS SC set ups and which would be better for higher boost.
i want to learn more about those two. i have already pretty much done the math on everything i just want to know which one is more capable and reliable.
cooper and 73Zero check out tailgunnerexhaust.com it is mostly used for bikes but the pipe size can get large so it will fit. Just so everybody knows this is going to be a military dedicated vehicle. Army green body white star on the side black roll cage, gattlin gun exhaust

You come asking for advice, but get upset when someone gives advice you don't like.

Good luck with your project

relax dude. have you ever been a member on any forum? people will criticise you nomadder what, thats just the way it is. I sudjest that you dont learn the hard way and just take it as constructive criticism.
On a side note. keep the car clean, dont do any flashy paintjobs or out of the ordanary exhausts unless you plan on being in the new fast and the furious movie comming out haha.
If you want something a bit outlandish and thats absolutely beautiful but at the same time functional and stylish would be the amuse widebody. Look it up.
good luck with the car.

Everyone knows that 2yrs of tech school always yields deep knowledge. In fact I'm sure the OP could piece together his own FI system. He's just asking questions here because there are so many of us running the KW and SOS kits on a 2.5L at 20ft/lbs of boost and he wants to know which system has proven to be more reliable in our experience.
