    Yes, it was discontinued. You either have to find a used ADC kit, or make a custom kit.

    nope its true. ADC talked about making a more affordable kit in the price range of $3K, but nothing has been heard from them in a few months.

    High compared to what? All the other Duratec kits on the market?

    Coming from someone who is designing their own kit and producing it themselves (I'm sure Tom will agree), for what you get for the $6K (headers, up-pipe, turbo, f/a intercooler, downpipe, intake, base tune chip, all accessories to work, etc.) is worth it! Trust me, I'm developing my own kit because I thought they where too expensive myself and that lead me to buying the worst mistake of my life and wasting much more than $6K in the process.

    Yes. If you don't want to learn to do it yourself, you have money, and your time is money to you, then you will find that a kit that bolts on and works nicely is well worth the $6000.

    Now to caveat that I would say a basic tune needs to be included so it doesn't blow up.

    I found I didn't have the $ or even the desire to spend $6K on a kit and I was able to do it myself cheaper and learn in the process. A win/win for me I think.
