Budget just means the kit use's stock exhaust manifold's got here to see the other kit that comes with Phamspeed exhaust manifold's. https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...kit+came+today

The budget kit looks like a piece of cake to install. with The other kit the manifolds will be somewhat time consuming. The oil lines will probably be the most difficult thing on either kit.
As for the upgraded kit, it all depends what you want.

Verdad Gallardo Not quite sure what the gains will be over the budget kit because there arent any numbers or track times for either kit, but the budget will be able to yield you quite a bit of power. If you're only aiming for 450-500 and nothing more, i dont see a reason to go with the upgraded kit. The budget kit will get you there just fine. If you're planning something major or would want to upgrade later, you should just get the upgraded kit.

400-500rwhp would be enough for me!
i still can't believe the rear end can handle that, but thats fine with me!
anybody have an idea what ATI would cost me anyways?
