    I'm going to use autotech myself, as between the two brands, the KMD's have had more reported incidents. But if I had the choice between all three and money was no object, definitely the cp-e pump would be tops on the list!
    Nice guys finish last.......that's why I drive an MS3!

    Where is the best (cheapest) place to order Autotech's through. I don't want to pay shipping/brokerage fees from the US. Ideally a Canadian Dealer would have them and ship for free in Canada. JRP?

    Got mine from CTS Turbo. Fuel pressures still look good on the AP. No funny noises from under the hood whether getting on or letting off throttle.

    I used KMD internals, installed it myself and honestly it's pretty idiot proof to install them if you follow the instructions. But in the end CP-E pump will hold a higher pressure than internals afaik.

    I noticed CTS Turbo has authorized dealers in the GTA....anyone ever ordered through them (lukazsportz/SEM Motorsports/Auto Select) and got a better price than ordering direct?

    I've asked our friend to look into sourcing these. I'll see what we can do to help you guys out.

    We also have access to 3+ cores for swaps. However, I'm pretty sure I will not offer the service under MSpeed.

    I'm looking into getting Autotech internals as well. Did you perform the install yourself? I'm curious as to what causes noise issues because I've seen vids of cars with Autotech internals that sound absolutely horrible (loud rattling noises).

    How much does Jimmy charge for the install?

    Here's an example of the noise:

    I looked around and most places gave me the same price to have them shipped up here.. i ended up paying about 450 with shipping and taxes for my autotech.. i guess the profit margin isnt great on them so people arent selling them that cheap.

    If you guys want a group buy i can get them a bit cheaper but it wouldnt be much cheaper...

    I did other stuff together at Jimmy's so price may vary.
    I do not want to reveal his price, so pls call him directly for pricing.

    I have Autotech, been solid since 2012. Haven't seen it dip once. Install is always going to be a pain but so awesome when I got it done.

    Plus, I got the AP+Autotech combo.
