Default Questions about the Kentucky Turbo setup

I am currently looking into all the options that I have for FI and I've still got the Procharger route open and possibly a FM turbo option. I would much rather do the turbo to be 100% honest but I don't see many companies that do a good job with putting together a setup. APS seems to have many problems and customer service issues, and STS won't quite make the power that I'm looking for I don't think. I'm wanting to be around 700, maybe a little north of that in the future. I was looking into the Kentucky Turbo setups and they look to be pretty nice but I was wondering how much altering to the car needs to be done to run them. I would like to steer clear of hacking the car up. From those of them who have gone with them what are your impressions?

Thanks

he makes the kits anyway you want it to be. He uses a mock-up camaro he has at the shop to route pipes anywhere you want them to go. Id give him a call and talk to him in person. REALLY helpfull and wont try to oversell you anything.

Best kit's around. He can do you a set of headers or a manifold kit and keep the A/C as well. Give him a call.
