Phamspeeds budget turbo kit, does it have a provision for a blow off valve, and does the downpipe go under the K member, or can they route it threw the k member? oh yeah, will any accessories be lost?

Best bet would be to call them and ask. I don't think anyone here has that kit yet.

From what I have seen the DP runs under the K-member. They say you will lose some ground clearance. I understand that the only thing you have to do is get some pusher fans and remove the stock fan. Nothing else has to move. I'm not sure about the BOV but it's not that hard to put one in yourself.

I'm very sure they can sell you the BOV and weld the flange on with no problem at all.

BOV is an additional $150 and we'd weld it on for free. It's a TurboXS RFL which can hold over 30psi if needed

Not only does the dp go under the k but also some of the other hot parts. In order to keep the price down with the stock manifolds, this has to be done no matter what. We'll have some pics of the production kit on a car. You'll see ground clearance is not bad at all, even on a lowered car

very interested.

Even with all of the optional stuff at the bottom of the page the kit comes out to be less than 3k. This would be a good start if someone wanted to got turbo instead of waiting. I assume that the stock manifolds could be upgraded to the turbo headers later on.

"I assume that the stock manifolds could be upgraded to the turbo headers later on."

I would imagine, actually I know as it was answered in another thread that all the piping is diffrent from the stock minifol kit to the full on kit you could keep the turbo and oil lines but would have to change all the hot parts and If you gonna step up like that proably outgrowing the p67 anway

So how many of the hot parts are going to be routed under teh K member? its seeming that everything is being routed under the K, I have a lowered car, and am kinda worried about this

Also what would the cost of this kit be with a T-88 and no charge pipe?
Thanks

i believe the only thing you would keep from the budget kit when going to the other one would be the turbo and fmic (if you have one). all the hot pipes are different and piping would be different. so not really economical to just swap it out, youd still have to spend a bunch more for the manifold kit.

I am no turbo expert, but I would imagine that if you have a setup where you're using a T88, you probably would really benefit from stepping up to the manifolds of the regular kit, not the budget one. Like I said however, im no expert, someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Do you think you could make a budget twin kit with stock manifolds? I like stock manifolds they are nice and quiet .I want to hear my turbo and blow off not headers ticking away.Are the regular headers you sell very noisey or maybe not too bad since they are not longtube right?

I just thinka twin with stock manifolds for say 3500 to 3800 would be perfect for what I want.
Also are the turbos in the budget kit water cooled as well as oil cooled.
Are the turbos in the twin kit oil and water didn't see mention of any water lines or anything but most Ball bearing turbos I am familar with are water and oil cooled.

i agree, no point in sticking a huge turbo on a stock manifold. you'll never have the exhaust flow to spool it decently and if you even need the power of a t88, then you definitly would need aftermarket manifolds.

Tell that to the Ohio Boys.

Exactly...how much did they push out of the stock manifolds? I believe it was upwards of 650; if I remember correctly. If I can push that much, that is all I want.

bryson

If I remember correctly, they got about 1350hp out of the stock truck manifolds.

Thats exactly what I am thinking, the ohio boys are making well over 1k rwhp to be running the times they are. They are using stock 6.0 manifolds but the ls1 are not that much smaller.

this is what I am thinking, basically the ohio guys turbos kit with all accessories. who wouldnt want that?

Im not trying to be cheap, i have a built motor and all the supporting mods, just i dont see a reason to spend 3k+ on their other kit, when this i smore what im looking for

all the results ive seen show a 40rwhp gain or more from tubular headers over a log manifold even on little weenie honda motors, thats not bad for the extra 800 bucks or so for the tubular setup.

iTrader: (14)

Right, but when you can make 500-1350rwhp, on a stock manifold why would you need to upgrade for $800? I can be content with approx 600-700rwhp
wouldnt you?
