If their turbo kit was added to a stock car, would it still be smog legal (read: will it pass?) and if so, what kind of power gains would it bring with completely stock exhaust?

 

Yes it will be. Giving 360 whp on a stock car it should be up for sale by next week as I have been told.

 

thanks Az3ar

 

Thankfully, I have $3k... it's just having another $1-2k for the clutch that is going to hurt.

 

Anyone up for a group buy if one is possible? Anyone know if Works would discount a group buy on turbo kits?

 

I am up for it. Not sure they will though???

 

you could probably count me in too...

note that ATP site shows a price of $2395, however you need to buy 660CC injectors, and of course the tuning will cost extra.

yup hope that it will be not more than $3000 to 3500.

 

We had a group buy at the STL dynoday. I don't know if that is standard for Works or was just a one time thing. If i remember right this discount was good for any of Works products.

5-10 ppl = 5% discount
10-15 ppl = 10% discount
15-20 ppl = 15% discount
20+ = 20% discount

Papa is gonna need a new clutch too.

Anyone know if new head studs will be recommended for this kit or even included in the kit? Don't the stock studs start stretching after 300whp?

 

imagine getting the %20 off but where the hell can we get 20 people in

 

I got no idea, i bet we could get atleast 5 ppl though. Anyone know of a ETA for this kit?

 

in 2 weeks or so

 

According to ATP, the kit won't be released until June-July.. you can forget your two week theory.

 

The turbo kit *seem* near to completion, but I probably lack lots of vital info. But, I drove it again the other day at a NorCalEvo meet. It actually sounds pretty mean and you can hear the wastegate actively releasing air - it's a really cool sound.

Power was (duh!) amazing of course, even with 3 people in the car. But if (when?) I get this kit, the first thing I will do is invest in some better brake pads.

Furthermore, the Works shop car was sporting the Zeal coilovers.. and I think I would rather get those right now than the turbo kit. Having the Evo so flat and stable was simply an amazing feeling.

 

Dunno called ATP and even e-mailed them they said couple more weeks. they even emailed me back saying that they start shipping it to other companies.
