Matt has some great stuff, he hooked me up with some injectors and some custom hoses.

If your getting a base kit (regardless of whoever you buy from), consider a window switch and heater, these are essential in my opinion to "Complete" a kit.

Reason being the instructions are going to tell you to spray above 3000 RPM...how do you do this? With a Window Switch...

Next the instructions will say bottle pressure 950-1000...how do you you get the bottle pressure there? With a heater. On a 50 ° F day a full bottle will be around 600 PSI, without a heater you will not get your bottle up to working pressure (unless its a nice summer day...)

Oh yeah...dont forget to get the TR6's from Matt too.

Because, unlike other companies, they are not out to rape the end user, meaning: absolute greed is not their major goal. Good stuff at Harris, don't worry.
