Our exhaust doesn't hang low enough for that to be an issue.
Thank you for the input though.

so for those of us who live in states with the sniffer lest - like me - where would be the best place on this kit to stick in some cats?

is this going to require custom exhaust or will it mate up to a stock-style catback? i know that fitting with the stock catback was part of the plan but that was also back on post number 200 and change...

what you see is what you get.......

You will have to either modify an existing exhaust or create a new one. We have placed the outlets in a position so that you can easily modify any aftermarket exhaust system to mate to our kit.

Is the projected date still May roughly?
Will you make them once the order is placed or are you making multiple to begin with, or do you for see them being on backorder?

It is the lowest part of your kit. FLP was a 2.5" Y-Pipe. I am trying to save you a headache. People used to bitch and bitch about the FLP setup when they broke. 99% of turbo companies WILL NOT use V-bands under any car especially ones (like F-Bodies) that have minimal clearance as it is.

Trust me...

After looking into it further, I have realized that you are correct. My fabricator was also thinking the same thing. The production version will have AccuSeal clamps the pic is below. Thanks for the input.

The kits are not going to be built to order. We are going to make 2 kits up front that will be available in may. We will then make them as fast as we can. We are not going to take deposits on kits. They will be kept in stock to the best of our ability.

There are so many turbocharged FBodys around, what happened to supercharging?

Those cars don’t have to cut the bird out of the bumper cover like the 98-02 F-body’s do, (Trans Am-Fire Bird)...

98-02: DO or DO NOT have to cut the bumper for your A/W intercooler (or were to talking about previous kits from other companies that use A/A intercoolers?)
