ECU, Header and LSD Upgrades
To all:
I'm curious in anyone has upgraded only ECU, Header and LSD?
I did a search without any exact results.
Specifically I'm interested in Kleemann since that's what's available to me locally. If any of you have these specific mods I'd be interested in your feelings about the upgrades, approximate costs, HP and torque increase as well as driving characteristics with the LSD.
I am assuming about a 30 - 35 HP and torque increase with the ECU/header set-up with stock exhaust???? At about $4000.00?? with another $2500 for LSD???
I appreciate any and all replies.

....I'm still very interested in knowing if anyone on the forum has this Set-up??
