if it works properly (i wouldnt consider anything short of 40hp proper) it will be amazing and as far as cost goes it should be around 1600 but i think it will become cheaper as time goes by because the 3 stage intakes will become less once we find a good source to get them from. also how much it costs got me curious and i think this may be one of the best hp/dollar mods ever. for instance intakes might add about 7 hp and cost anywhere from 400-1000, so depending thats about 1 hp for every $100 dollars spent. then i wondered about supercharging which at best would be 6000 for a possible 125hp which comes to about $50 per hp. then comes this mod which i think has the best ratio for a naturally aspirated motor at about $40 per hp (and thats being very conservative as far as cost and gains go, it could potentially be about $25 per hp)

so sorry for ranting in a positive manner but this mod has me really excited
