I drive my KWSC A/T Fit ALOT, to the tune of 126 miles round trip every time I go to work and back home, 102212 miles on the odometer so far.
The kit has been an absolute joy to own, I'd never go back to non forced induction. I only wish there was some way to put High Boost in the AT Fit's only because I'd like "just a little bit more"...yeah I'm hooked.

Hard to give you a good answer as I don't try to
hyper-mile my car...I bang the hell out of it every chance I get.
From filled up to the point where the gas is going to spill out I usually get to around 250 miles before the needle says halfway. I'd love to see what my car can do if I drove it at a constant 60mph but thats damn near impossible around my neck of the woods.

oh hey whats up PG long time no see!
see X 5
ok this guy is just trying to get posts under is belt, he'll never pull the trigger on a KraftWerks SC - good luck dude but i say put your money where your typing fingers are and get boost anyway you want, i'd kill for a GE kit to be available soon, but will settle for my e85 turbo'd CRX to fullfill my boost addiction for now

I have been looking for someone that wants to change back to stock from a High Boost upgrade..... I guess I am going to place an order in to Kraft Werks in a week or so since I'm not getting any younger and I refuse to let anyone else turn a wrench on my car. I don't think there is anyone that's in a hurry to to cut loose of theirs..... The flawless operation of the base kit has instilled confidence that the High Boost upgrade will meet my expectations and serve me well.

I have read about every post you have made in regards to your experiences with the KWSC starting way back before I started posting..... That and my own experiences with the base kit has me reassured that I am not making a mistake..... I am getting to the point age and health wise that if I don't act soon I won't be able to do what all needs to be done to get everything the way I want it mechanically.... Maybe I will do some cosmetic stuff one of these days but that really all that important to me.

Can anyone in socal tell me how much you guys paid for your KWSC including tax+install? I'm assuming that seperate tune is not required. I just want to know how much I should have saved to finally get this =].

Something like that. I took over someone's pre-order before the kit was released. Back then tax was a bit cheaper, but then again the price was higher too.

Since when is sales tax 9.25? KW is located in the IE, 8.75 tax rate.

Ohh I see. So probably roughly than the same price than I guess. Ok gotcha, thanks! I'm looking to go to that MD automotive place that you suggested as well.

Well if you're not busy Friday, I'm stopping by there to do my uninstall. Before that happens you could do a test drive.

. I assume you had a buyer than? If your kit was for a MT I would have totally bought it. LOL

Hell man, everything is higher than it was a year ago due to the Dollar being less than what it was then..... Once you have mounted the kit on your car you are going to enjoy it so much you will kick your own butt for not having gotten it last year, for sure.

LOL. I'm still going to hold out to see if there will be a sale. I'm planning to quit my full-time job in a few months to return to school full time. So I will probably blow what little I have saved on the supercharger. LOL
