It should be very soon. As of last Saturday the only thing left to show up was the fuel tank.
I have Adrian’s throttle body at the shop. I’ve got to fix the lip/bead that’s on the outer edge of the TB.
Adrian done a little port work on the stock TB, and got into the lip here and there. I’m worried about the
hose blowing off at the dyno so I’m fixing it.

I’m in a hotel in Tupelo MS for my step daughter’s graduation from Ole Miss this weekend.

Jessie and Ryan still have the 4” Mufflex exhaust to install but those guys are as good as they come, that is just a lunch brake for them two.

It’s coming just site tight!!!

Guys I’m really sorry that we don’t have any dyno #’s by now.
We are still waiting on fuel system parts.

The parts where ordered about a month ago, part of the system come in right
away and my customer has been promised return phone calls with tracking #’s for the rest
of the parts ever since.

It’s beyond me how a company can charge a CC $1700.00 and play games like this.

Where are the parts coming from?

I've had that happen to me a few times though but I got all my parts in the end.

I would rather not say, it would start a war.

All this time I think we could have built the fuel system while the turbo system is getting put on.

is this the first and only vehicle this kit has been installed on?

dont take this the wrong way because i am very impressed in the layout and details of your kit, but more importantly what modularturbo has done for the community here and the support you guys give to the FI forums. i can tell a great amount of attention has paid and the quality and engineering appears to be outstanding

i just find it odd and was wondering if there was an explanation on why or how you guys are already taking payment and selling a $10k kit that has no dyno testing, no track testing, and no extensive street testing. like i stated above it appears that a lot of attention has been paid to the details of the design, i would just hate to see something unforeseen happen down the line that doesnt show up for a few thousand miles after a number of kits are running around

for what its worth i do not have any intention of purchasing one, but it is a very impressive kit and for the price well worth it, i was just curious

I could go on and on about how many years I’ve been fabricating how many turbo systems
I have built and the 100+ sets of custom headers over the years but it wouldn’t matter anyway.
When you have been there and done that a few times you know what works and what don’t.

About the only limitations of the kit is supporting mods and tune up.

The kit looks great. It's gonna suck if you throw a belt though. I wish I had to money to swing one of these now.

It's not that bad.
The main belt can be changed from the top, no difference than a car with out the kit.
The AC belt may require that you remove the bolts from the heat exchanger so you can
move it around a little but it won't have to come completely out.

4 bolts, about 2 minutes, maybe.

I meant if the belt flies off I would be afraid it would take out the cooler.

The heat exchanger core is about 8" forward of where the belt tracks.
If you had a belt failure I would worry about it cutting the radiator hoses
long before it taking out the heat exchanger.

That's good to know. I guess it's just the angle of the pics.

Do the compressor inlets reduce through the K-member?

Got a little update for everyone.

Got a call from Jesse Sunday afternoon and was informed that the rest of the fuel system had made it in and they where installing it.

They will be rapping a few miner detains this week.

The last I had heard the tuner was 2 week out.

So 2-3 weeks I would think at the most and we will see some #'s

You think the 3" inlet will hinder performance?
