If you go inline with a tiico yoy pay more than most subie mods.  If you
build your own kit like with fastforward.ca parts you come out the cheapest.

The cheapness of the mod is directly proportional to your own tools and
skills in using them as well as automotive engine mod knowledge.  Electronic
skills with basic OBDI or injector contol ECU is also needed.
