I am quite satisfied with the Vitesse Stage 2 kit. I didn't actually install the kit, but, Ian, the car's previous owner and creator, said that the kit was not difficult to install. I have heard nothing but rave reviews about John's customer service (he is Fast951 on the board), so if you were to encounter difficulty during the install, I'm sure that he would help you leap over the hurdle. As far as power goes, yes, it lives up to its claims. Ian took the "Special" to a dyno a month before I bought it, and, at 17 psi on pump gas, he laid down 330/330 at the rear wheels. Bear in mind that this was during 95 degree summer heat and the dyno's fan was faulty. Good luck, and feel free to PM me if you have any more questions.
i was asking about the clamp fittings

I purchased John's kit as well awhile back, ran into some trouble, and John was that of a stand up guy to step in and resolve the entire problem. So ya he is a stand up guy, and keeps his word. So if your looking for a kit to purchase, talk to him.

I have a '86 951 with Guru 15psi chip set, Tial 38mm wastegate and no cycling valve, FULL BOOST in 3rd gear at 3,200. Without the cycling valve in plus the wastegate, it does build boost sooner though.
