Default Question about FTRA Kit?

I ordered this last week from WS6Store.com. I was wondering, has anyone else ordered this from them? How long did it take for you to recieve the kit??

I ordered this along with the SLP lid, & MTI Bellow. Which i already recieved these, but havent got the FTRA kit yet. I have them listed in my sig, since im waiting for it to arrive. Ive already sent them an email, just trying to figure out by when i would recieve it. So idk when ill get a response from them, since i just sent it awhile ago, but figured i would try and ask on here.

Also, how much of an increase in HP should i expect?? Im not expecting like a huge HP increase, but is it a good noticable increase??

The FTRA isnt goin to show any gains on a dyno, but you will see a gain at the track..i picked up about .15 in the 1/4 mile..and about 1 mph. I would guess with the lid and the bellow you should get approx. 7-10 RWHP over stock..

Koo, yeaa i think it may have been shipped from Fast Toy's. Is FT based out of Philly?? If so, then i think it was shipped by them. I know when i check my account is has "PHIL" next to "Fast Toy's" while the rest of the part's, where shipped w/ FedEx. Arrived in 2 day's, great shipping from them.

No complaints, just trying to figure out when the FTRA would arrive.
