PWR don't sell kits, only the intercooler itself. The IC comes with mounting points...you make your own brakets to suit.
As for pressure drop...wouldn't have a clue...I'm making more than enough power to not worry about it. On that note though, i believe pressure drop is directly proportional to the amount of boost flowing through it. So if you're only running low boost, you won't be effected by pressure drop.

The BP/BPT rod in the middle is so small/weak compared to the others.
But in saying that, my rod punched a hole thru the block without damaging itself. And it's the smaller of all the 3. Ryan |

And as a comparison of the factory ones to aftermarket - the PAR rods.

Do PAR used pre-snapped rods? Cause that's an awfully clean join on the big-end...

Have a look on this page there is a couple of photo's comparing PAR rods to GTR ones. The PAR look great but I dont know if there is $900 difference with the
slightly beefier lower section and higher quality rod bolts.. http://www.amazd.co.nz/forum/viewtop...r=asc&start=45
