Default SC / FI Questions

So I have been thinking more and more lately with getting a SC on my GS430. And with a couple of them for sale in the forums now is probably the time to buy a setup. Here are my questions...

Did anyone make a SC setup specifically for the GS430, or are they just a modification from the GS400 setups?

Whats involved with replacing the injectors, soldering? How come?

What other kits are available besides RMM? Who can I buy them from?

Last question. I am most likely going to go with a TTE lip, instead of a full bumper. Will an intercooler fit behind this semi-stock setup or will I need to go with a replacement bumper? If I need a replacement what will work?

Thanks in advance.

I think someone is working on one - not sure if someone actually released a kit for the GS430.

You do not have to replace the injectors unless you plan on running more than about 8lbs of boost - and with the kit I strongly doubt that is what they offer.

I don't know about the TTE lip - I had to cut a little off my L-Sportline bumper but it was the actual IC piping and not the actual intercooler.

Have you read Morris' thread titled "So you think you want FI"?? I would suggest it before you go FI.
