I do not sell it in a kit form as I don't recommend it for daily driven vehicles..............yet.
I know I've seen some pumps advertised as being reliable enough for de use, but the real world is another story. This would def be a cool thing to try, I wonder just how much power its worth on a car like this...

The turbo was tested today on the new engines first maiden voyage. Short and sweet: It spools instantly, pulls like a freight train up top. I hit 8300 according to logs and it never felt like it dropped off. I actually only meant to go to 7000 but it got there VERY fast. Dyno and tuning might come tomorrow (Saturday). I'm certainly impressesd with the White at this point. It's going to kick some butt. David just hit the throttle while sitting still and was able to see 5 psi. For those looking for stock like spool with more up top, Early indications are that this one will get the job done..

Tom and I went for a brisk drive in the RS and OMG this white rabbit felt just plain retarted when it hit boost. I was the co pilot watching the AEM logs.

Tom it felt like the car was making power til 8400rpm if you ask me... I was able to put my head off the seat when you finally let off the gas.

Tony you are in for a real treat man!

Tom, Indy, Buschur Racing, and FP have a sweet combination here... I for see 9's in this car!!!

It really does hit hard. I'm not too sure the neighbors along the closed circuit appreciated seeing and hearing a 'White' blurr. Hey, it's the 4th of July, probably just a big 'Bottle Rocket'. Speaking of rocket, I think the IndyEvo/Wilson manifold also is showing it's capabilities.

David, Bryan(sp), Josh...Thanks. We're having fun doing the tests. I'm just glad to finally get the motor back to full compression. We were talking last night about how the car ran 10.67 with 3 leaking exhausts, a hurt turbo that couldn't boost above 30 psi, a manifold that lost boost and still went 10.67 at 123! I always said that when things were right, the car had 10.teens in it. I told Tony that, as well as others. On the threads I was being conservative saying 10.30's, but knew it could do more. I think I mentioned it before, but compression was 115 - 117 in all 4 cylinders. As Robert Young found, the turbo was badly hurt and wouldn't spool. Those two things alone are major problems. Now they're fixed, we're even stronger than before, lighter than before and I'll be running David Buschurs tune on the new AEM. This is going to be FUN.

I forgot to say, We also have changes in the suspension which will help our launches and the new IndyEvo/Wilson custom manifold is going to prove to be a huge plus.
Got to shut the computer down and head back to Buschur Racing. I left the car there last night and today, I'll start connecting some gauges. Wish us luck.
