Great thread.I'm going the same route, should have it fitted around mid January.
I decided not to purchase the fuelling kit instead purchased a DeatschWerks 200 - 255 lph fuel pump which was on offer at co-ordsport for £46 and some Asnu 800cc injectors.
Just trying to find out if the φ44 restrictor is recommended for the plug and play maps when using the hondata or HKS ECUs and whether the AP2 φ58 restrictor can be used if having a custom map.
Let us know how you get on with finding the parts needed. I went with the fuel upgrade kit as it's all there and all matched ready to go.

I read that somewhere yes, are you considering a mild torque increase then? HKS isnt massive power but torque is pretty much doubled....

If you double the torque for a given rpm, you double the power.

Agreed at 350 the torque will be around 240 lb ft roughly.

It's worth reading this link from my signature, as it helps to explain what power and torque really are, and why power is all that really matters.

the torque is increased from approx, 150lbs/ft ish to 240lbs/ft ish so about double... Ish...
Power is from 230bhp ish to 350bhp ish...
Let's hope we can get some dyno graphs up soon.

If you want more power then this isn't the kit for you, you'll need a TTS or SOS or kraaftworks etc. HKS is for daily driving not for power hunters.

Power 1.45 times, torque 1.6 times
You should do some 20-80 runs in 3rd gear before and after (video them or something) so we can see the difference in performance.
