Hello good question! And Thankyou for watching! From what Ive heard. The transmission starts to slip once the motor is around 380whp. But KSR has a tune for that. As for the motor some say 410whp but some still are on stock with 450whp no issues. Aslong and you maintain the motor and keep temps and numbers dialed in you should be good💯

Stock Theta II power plants are built to take up to 420-450HP, before having to upgrade the guts. These cars are great for cross model modding, I have the SX but installed a few SXL features. I like it this way, less weight in my SX without all the extra electronics etc.

Hey man I wanna say your videos are great. I’m glad your experience with KSR was better than mine but I wanted to warn people to be careful of Kristian. I spent 3 months waiting for a turboback for my Optima and took it to one of the best shops in El Paso where it clearly didn’t fit (I have video proof) and got told it was mine and the mechanics fault. KSR said I need to take it to a performance shop. After he refused to refund me he finally remade the exhaust and sent it after another 3 months. Instead of going to a personage shop I decided to try to put it on with a family member first and it was obviously made differently the second time (because it actually fit) but he would never admit fault. Although I will say the exhaust does sound great. Sorry to rant but I felt like I should say this before it happens to someone else.
@420Aeclipse283 жыл бұрын
Parker, I'm not sure of your issue with me at KSR as I went above and beyond what any shop would do. There are parts shortages everywhere for all companies because of the pandemic. As well as shipping delays. When you had the muffler shop install the exhaust I sat on the phone with them trying to explain the correct orientation for the vband exhaust. However with there being a language barrier they chose to hang up. When we recieved the exhaust back it was improperly taken care of and damaged. Me being the shop owner I am I wanted you to have an exhaust that's was up to my quality and that you can enjoy. So even though the tips being damaged as well as dings and scratches on the exhaust I remade you and entire unit out of kindness. I sent it back with labeling so it couldn't be installed incorrectly. I'm sorry for your attitude towards me however we reccomend a professional performance shop to install all of our products as stated on the website. As well with the 2 to 4 week lead time due to parts shortages that was posted in red as well at the time. I'm sorry you feel you had a bad experience to my knowledge I tried my best to keep you happy even when the error that wasn't ours. We even sent pictures of the exhaust installed on the exact same car when we recieved it back. And in those pictures it fit perfectly. As for the refund there isn't a refund on our custom made parts which is stated on the site. But we are always willing to go above and beyond to make sure the customer is happy with a perfect performing product.

The only reason I remade the exhaust was that it came back damaged and wasn't up to my quality standards for an item my customer should receive. I'm glad you guys got the exhaust fitted as intended and I'm glad you enjoy the sound. May you enjoy it for many years.

You will get a better tune on the dyno. But canned tunes can also be safe because it will account for temps and atmospheric differences through the sensors. The canned tunes from lap3 have been tried and tested on 100s of cars. I am 40k on mines.
