Has anyone purchased the Turbohoses SMIC/pipe kit, and/or have any idea if it's a good setup?

The Turbohoses SMIC was the first mod for my MSP back in 2005, and is a very good upgrade. I run 8 psi, and never notice the heat soak. I like how it improved my throttle response and allows me to downshift less in the slower turns as it breathes so much better than stock.
I also use a Steed Speed Ex Mani, 2.5" mid pipe (with high flow cat) a JDM Sam tuned Unichip and a Greddy Profec B. Its no drag racing monster (is any Protege??), but makes for a very fun daily driver.
In response to you considering theV1 or V2, Turbohoses told me the V2 is really designed for drag racing it; and that it moves so much air that it's been known to cause fuel shut off. So for the daily driver you dont want the V2.
Mine still hasnt come in yet, they said they should mail out next week. I'll update when I get them.
