Default Teaser Pics!

Here's some teaser pics of my new turbo kit. Its a custom fabbed Truck kit. I could've had a fabbed kit to retain ac, but my car is a non ac car anyways, and thats just less parts i'll need to get! I won't post where/who made this kit for me because they aren't a sponsor, and i dont want to start a pissing match or get my thread locked, so no Pricing will be included either. Anyways, off to the goods






Yes, those are custom mounts for my Intercooler, as well as a custom radiator shroud!! with this kit, I dont have to move the alternator, sway bar or the radiator, i just need pusher fans. It will work on my stock K Member. I am completley happy with my kit, my hard earned money was well spent!! My build thread will follow once im done ordering parts and get around to building/finishing the build

That's a very nice looking truck mani kit! I love the way he modifies the manifolds with the v-bands, It makes for a very easy install and looks a lot cleaner than the stock 3-bolt flanges.

The same guy built my kit and I will say that his quality is top notch! I am very happy with my turbo kit and agree with yenkm68 in that you will be very pleased with yours. Be sure to post up pics of your kit installed! I can't wait to see it!

Looks like a nice kit. Can't tell in the pics, but do you have a spot for your IAT sensor?

What are your goals with the car?

No, i'll be putting the IAT sensor on the intake manifold as others have done. Ill be drilling and tapping and putting it where the EVAP port is, as i wont be using the EVAP port. Horsepower goals are 650-750rwhp.
