I have talked to him since i am leaning in that direction also. just cant make up my mind. But he is also in the process of making a twin turbo kit also that he said will cost somewhere around 4000-4500 bucks +/-300 bucks. His work looks really good and i have done some of the math on the costs and to have a totally drive ready 8psi kit it was somewhere in the ballpark of $6k. Which is cheaper than most places. Give him a call and he will be happy to talk to you and help you out, i am sure of it. And as stated before wait and see what HPTurbo comes out with, supposed to be making a stage 1 kit for us right now.
So i assume you are going with a front mount and don't care for smog? I'm just worry since every cop that stops you tells you to pop your hood..then your screw..

Well im not that worried about the cops here. If by some chance they do tell me to pop my hood and then cry about my turbo then i guess ill try and feed them a line of bullshit. Some cars do coem with front mount turbos stock. maybe ill run the exhaust pipe through a hollowed CAT. Might do the trick, tell them its a lingefelter option or some ****. I dont know, im not worried about them. If i do get busted ill just switch it back, go to the ref and then turn it into a drag car only. Probably wont be a street car after the turbo for long anyways. I will be deciding on full drag, full street, or a bit of both. I will deal with it when the time comes. For now i just wanna go fast.
