ko4 is only going to net you about 10-15whp more than a ko3 pushed the same. Not to mention only have power from 3-5k. Why not atleast go with something a little bigger? A gt2x elim will get you atleast another 20+whp and tq all while giving you a much more useable powerband. People have gotten low 13's with this elim and only making 15's with ko4's. Cost will only be a few hundred more.

i dont even think they offer the j31 file anymore. You definitly wont "blow your engine" with a gt2x elim.

Cincy, who the hell is turning low 13's with a gt2x eliminator? And k04's run in the 14's commonly

Sleeper, a K03 and a K04 are the exact same thing pretty much. A GT2X is still considering a small-frame turbocharger, so you're not going to put any stress on your engine through the hammering of a turbo. Keep in mind people have GT2871R turbos on their cars, and are still running just fine.

A GT2X is rated at 290hp, while a GT2871R is rated up to 460hp.
