Well I have been following this kit, and was quite surprised to see a price tag like this.... but quality has a price.

On the website you posted, there is a 'starter' kit that lists for 2699.00. My question is how is this so much less that the 'full' kit? How does the other 2800 come into play? The only things that I see missing from one kit to the other is the oil/water lines, dp, maybe a fan and a coolant line, but I could be wrong. I would imagine that most people will just buy the starter kit, and have a dp fabricated. I know that my local speed shop wouldn't charge more that 300 bux including materials, and maybe another 150 for the oil/water lines and fittings.

Overall the mani looks excellent and the lifetime guarantee is very nice as well!

The other kit hes talking about comes with fmic, radiator and some other goodies. Maybe a upper and lower ic pipe as well to make it a complete kit for those who are stock with just basic mods?

I hope in your webiste there isnt a misprint cause those are some incredible prices. http://store.yahoo.com/cheapturbo/evstpa.html
Definately on my list as my next turbo uprgrade.

1.Do you sell a upgrade fan that will work for the stock radiator?
2.Can someone tell me whats the differnce between the GT35R and T04R? I think the T04R is a bigger turbo and will be a bit laggier?

I think the reason the price is so much because it comes with an intercooler as well, unlike some of the other kits.

Why would you guys not include all the oil and coolant lines, fittings with your starter kit?, when you know its needed and how much more to complete this kit fittings and all.

thanks for all the kind words guys.

with the BBt3/to4r p-trim turbine wheel .63 a/r thats in the car right now, we are seeing 24psi @ ~ 6000rpms.
this is the largest turbo available with the kit, 725whp supportable.

with the ballbearing chra, we are recovering with ~12psi between shifts.
this thing is awesome on the freeway, from 80 to 140 in a hurry.
i have some 4th gear datalogs in excel format, if someone can help me to post them as a downloadable file.

sorry guys, i did forget to include the tial bov and oil fittings in the first listing. i went back and edited it.

the factory waterlines and bonjo fittings actually work perfect, with minor adjustment.


soon2 b EVIL, send me a PM with any questions
