do it right or dont do it........ I have been told the RSI is a great kit but pretty Expensive and thier customer service sucks... but their kit is good quality (but you will have to wait for ever to get it hahaha)

I have the eliminator system with no problems. it is supposed to handle 1300HP on pump gas!

depends on where are you located, you might be able to find a shop that can do a custom setup. btw what year and what are your goals??? and where are you located?

you dont need the RSI for that much power. I dont really know much about the C5s, but look into the aermotive systems. also ECS has a kit I think. again if you will stick with that much power then you will find a lot of options with out the need to pay a lot of $$$$$ on the RSI kit

Well I seen an rsi on sale for $399 and was good for 1000 hp. Was not the top of the line one but would work fine. I will look up the others too!

399 kit is just the hanger alone. You will need to get the pumps, lines, fittings, venturi block. I bought the full kit last year. I didnt get directions with the kit, just a few boxes of parts. Its pretty easy to figure out whats what, and they did answer any questions I had over the phone. Its a nice kit to be honest, and it should be for the money it cost.

Ah good to know! Been looking every where to try and find the best kit for my money. Had a couple ppl tell me if I stay under 800 whp then a dual pump kit w factory lines will work great too. And those I can find very reasonable.
