TST Power Kit?

The way they make it seem, all you have to do is install this "power kit" and you'll have 330hp and 750lb-ft (on '96-'98 Manual's) at your disposal with only the following exceptions.

1. Stock clutch will not hold this level of power...ok, so you'll have to upgrade to an aftermarket clutch.

2. Exhaust temps will run hot without airflow improvements...ok, so install a BHAF??

What else is recommended for this level of power?
What's included in the TST Power Kit?
Can other years of the 12V engine get to this power level without massive work (Just changing injectors and such)?

Thanks.

power kit comes with plate,boost elbow and install video.you should buy gauges to keep an i on exhaust and boost.the elbow increases the amount of boost to a diferent setting before waste gate dumps.if you drive according to the pyro you dont have to upgrade your turbo rite away same goes for the clutch don't go nuts on the pedal and you will be ok for a while .

What P.O.R said. My clutch will slip but if you keep it at the stock setting (halfway or a little more back) you should be ok. Mine is slid 3/4 forward. BHAF helped a lot as well as the 4" exhaust. I also live around 7,000 feet so that doesn't help my egt's as all.

Buy the #10 plate, 3KGSK, and BHAF and of course the guages (egt, boost).

Haven't dynoed yet but from what I have raced and beaten it should be around those #'s.
