You can install yourself but it would create a warranty gray area as we can not guarantee your labor. Basically if you do something in the course of installation (ie: dont unplug the battery and fry the DME) or the cause of failure can be traced to an improper installation then it would not be covered under warranty. We will always recommend having product installed by an authorized dealer just to eliminate potential issues but you can self-install if desired. Just have some fine print to deal with is all.

Measured stock numbers are listed in the charts above but as is recent tradition their crank stock numbers are closer to what is actually produced at the wheel. We measured the stock car at 433 HP /472 TRQ (wheel) or 540 HP /595 TRQ (crank)
