It's a bigger filter and hoses, along with a better T-fitting. This T-fitting is opened much more than the stock one.

Well Jim already did the R&D so that these would custom fit the fuel rails for the 1MZFE

Think we can do group buy and get it down to 150 shipped? I htink 200 is kind of out of the universe for some tubes and metal and a filter... I know its well worked out and all but still think about it you know. Thast allot of money. And it IS a tube,metal, and filter..

So group buy anyone? Can anyone get this started? 150 and below Im in. I do kind of need it.

Plus is it worth it since my car is only cat back and K&N drop in? When I pedal my car hard I can feel it lacking something...

i just got a new fuel filter and a fuel pump and pour octane booster..... i'm s/c octane booster makes the biggest difference... maybe you just need to pour fuel injector cleaner in your car.... 200 bucks.. 150 alone is too much for hoses... i rather spend 150 on octane booster.....

its worth it for s/c'ed cars i believe.. i don't know if it offers benefits for n/a guys..it definitely helps prevent knock sensors from blowing from what i hear, and it keeps the car from running too lean under higher boost.

You don't have to buy Jim's kit, you can just get your own parts. The greatest benefit from this mod is the bigger t-fitting. This will allow even flow between both fuel rails, plus even more fuel. Compare the stock t-fitting with the one in Jim's kit. Tell me what you think? More fuel, more power? Well, just think what it'll do with the octane booster, because I get a very nice jump at around 4500 rpm. 8)
