Great looking kit. I hope we will see something less then $4500 for the smaller trim. I hope I can get a peek when I come down for my profec B install and Dynoflash Weekend.

We're looking for them to sell at around $3995 for the full blown GT35R kit and about $3450 for the GT32 kit. So far the GT32 is spooling only about 200-300rpm slower than the stock turbo in 4th gear on the dyno but making about 100more HP

This is the exact reason I want the GT32 trim. I can't stand turbo leg. When you are saying 200-300 rpm slower spool what else is done to the car? I guess I'm looking for anything else you have installed that would make the engine spool faster. I can't wait for this release. It's even better I live close so you can install it as well.

any engine upgrades needed with the GT32 kit needed? I saw you did some runs with an SAFC? I have an SAFC and HKS EVC V.... think I'll be okay or do I need something more substanstial like a Emanage or UTEC?

We ran our turbo kit with an SAFC and it made plenty of power, 525whp to be exact (stock block, stock head).
We are working on the warranty right now. In case anyone here is in manufacturing, maybe you've noticed that S.S. went up 50% in price recently, ouch... We'll have it in writing soon but we're leaning towards a 2 year warranty against cracking.

BTW I was out working on the UTEC (which worked great BTW) and I had my guy Eric driving and myself tuning. 15psi of boost by 3600RPM in 4th gear, the turbo sounds like a jet engine under the hood!, I'm going to take some in-car videos this week so you can see how quickly this turbo spools and how sick it sounds.

I feel your pain Martin. All our material cost went up 60%. It is unreal how much it is going up.


The kit looks nice.

Ohh yeah!!

AWSOME!! I like your kit the best so far. If I'm not mistaken, these tubes have walls that are twice (?) as thick as most of the other tubular manifolds. Is that right? I'm definitely going with a turbo kit....just trying to decide which...looks like you're in the lead by a good margin in my estimation!!

ps: what fuel?

i believe they got around 470whp with the GT32.. with a spool-up that was !!!

note that this was with the prototype kit, though..



oh, and here's the GT35R dyno (i cant find the 32): http://www.automotosports.com/mediapage/551whp.JPG
