Post up some updates when you get it installed. Im looking to order this kit for my coupe here real soon. Im hesitant to order it because of the hp rating on it. I have a forged 6.0 with cnc ls3 heads. IM interested in the 78mm also.
Whats the limit for how much boost you can make with this kit? I was reading another thread that looked like 8psi max maybe?

Not at this time but Im sure at some point we may revisit the design. It just cost so much more and most guys are able to support the power they are looking for on a single.
JGcoupe: Looking really good, have you started to test fit up the intercooler tubing yet? Looks like the same kit is going to work on cars at least up to 98 and possibly 04 even. Very cool

Possible to make 1000 hp with your single kit?

There is some fitment issues with the intercooler piping when I tried a rough mock up so I've been tossing the idea of going straight to the TB for now.
1. I need to re-route the power steering lines that go through the rad support. (minor)
2. I'm running the pro flo/90mm so the piping originally sent isn't made for this setup. (not on3's fault)
3. ABS is deleted already and then I had to bend the lines over to allow the pipe to pass through.
4. I think the pipe connected to the turbo outlet is too close to the cross over pipe so I might rethink the fitment or consider insulating. (to be determined)
I honestly haven't had a chance to actually mount the intercooler but hopefully work will slow down and I will post up some more pics.

[QUOTE=dmracing;18096635] With the correctly sized turbo, I dont see any reason why it wont.
Sounds good and not too drastic to make it work. Keep us informed on the headway and look forward to seeing it up and running.

What is the frame to header clearance on each side?
I am looking at using the kit on another vehicle but the frame rails are 29.5 inches between them. I hear the mustangs have 31 inched.
Can someone measure their kit header/collector max width.
With truck manifolds flipped down and forward, I have about 1/2 inch clearance from frame to the stock manifold 3 bolt flanges on each side.

On3,
This looks like a great kit. If you want to increase the potential for this product, I would look to see if the hot side will work on a second gen RX7. Just looking at the pictures, I see no reason why it would not. The engine bay layout is very similar as the the position of the rack, etc...
Head over to www.norotors.com and get ahold of Blake, who runs the forum. You should be able to find a few willing and reliable people to test fitment.
Here is a recent second gen RX7 turbo build:

I looked at those photos and I really only think the header/crossover setup would work, pretty much anything else would still need to be custom fabricated
