also, not positive on this, but most likely the rev hard kit comes w/ a bigger turbo that at lower boost levels will make more power, just spool up later and will be able to handle more power, more than ur motor can probably take stock.

now, the custom kit might be good up to that kind of hp, but that rev hard kit which probably comes w/ a t3/t4 would be able to make more than that with the right fuel management such as k-pro. And i doubt ur motor, unless the new k series are just freaken awesome, would be able to handle 350-400 hp on stock internals.

i dont really know a whole lot about the k series, so im not sure on how emissions go, i would think that doing k pro would not allow u to pass emissions since its a stand alone ecu. You would probably be able to just switch back to your original ecu tho and maybe stock injectors like you can do w/ older civics that convert to obd1 ecus and be able to pass.
if i bought a boost controller could i easily crank up the greddy kit? I wanna say the older greddy kit were locked into a certain psi or something like that. that upgrading the kti was hard/impoissble without removing the e-manage. can the emanage be re programmed?
