I spoke with Ron from AJP the other day and yes, they are running with the stock clutch in their shop car and they just bumped up the boost to 10lbs and are pushing over 400whp. I don't know all the details but Ron was very helpful and very knowledgeable. He said that when you call them to order the kit, you let them know what you are looking for hp wise and what you plan on using it for and they'll build the kit to suit your needs.

I was told the price range for the kits will be 3995-4400. Marvie's kit had some decent custom work done that they don't want to show people yet. I don't want to spill what they told me about the custom work, I'll let them talk about it. Also, Ron took a couple trips to Japan to speak with Honda, I believe about some ECM issues and do more research on the car.

He told me that in regards to tuning, you'll be sent the kit with everything you need to bolt on and run, no need to tune unless you want to. If you want to change something, just call Ron and he'll walk you thru how to do it all. It's very easy and user friendly.

When you say "everything", does that include all the hoses/oil lines, etc..?

Now THAT's what I call "customer service".....

I'm sure their stock clutch will be toast after a few more pulls...lol. I'm upgrading mine while the engine's out of the car.

correction...greddy evo2

AJP will not be full titanium...u'd have to pay out ur ass for a full titanium exhaust..that's just not feasible..

yes i'll be upgrading to AJP 3" exhaust...ofcourse i'll have that customized also :)...why i always have my own requirement? i guess i'm picky like that...these people are probably sick ands tired of all my requests to have certain things changed...but at they same time i bet they are greatful for that same person being soo patient :)

I bet they are pretty happy that you customized your kit. Now everyone is going to buy the "Marvie Kit" instead of their base turbo package. I know I am going to start saving up for it. Maybe in a couple months I should be able to get it. I can't wait.

Please keep us informed on what clutch and you get and what stage it is. I will need to set aside money for a new clutch as well if I get the turbo. Thanks.

I'm not sweatin' a new clutch when I get this kit in just over a month...they've been running the stock clutch the whole time they've had their car boosted and according to Ron, the clutch is fine. They don't drive the car like a grandma either...
