Default Changes to Phamspeed Budget kits!!

I am proud to announce Phamspeed budget kits are now going to be sold as completed kits. No fabrication required, everything will be included to install. Downpipe will extend all the way back to a stock catback or any custom catback that uses stock location. DP will connect to the catback with a band clamp. Kit will come with charge pipe as it did before. FMIC upgrade will now come with all piping required as well as couplings and clamps. Fans can be purchased through us or by Summit Racing or any other online performance shop. This will be a complete kit right down to the nuts and bolts.

Prices are still being figured out but just as an estimate
kit w/o fmic- $2700
kit w/ fmic and all ic piping- $3500

Again, these are completed kits that require no welding or fabrication. Also, something to think about is the turbos that are included in the kits. We use Precision turbos which are high quality and have great warranties and technical support. Before buying any kit, please ask what brand turbo is included, what the warranty is and a technical support#. We could always use cheaper turbos and lower the kit prices but why? I've learned turbos and wastegates are something you don't want to skimp on. Every other part of a turbo system can be worked around. A bad turbo or wastegate can mean trouble

Again, these prices are not carved in stone yet. I'll get back to you on prices and when they'll be available

I see you guys are doing what I suggested months ago!!!

If these are COMPLETE kits, will they include wire harnesses for the fans with new brackets to mount the fans? Will you post high res, bright pictures of this kit online?

What will need to be cut to mount the IC? Pics? Camaro? I don't want to cut up my car.

I dont' suppose we can find a way to make this kit work on my SLP Long Tube headers huh? lol

Dammit I knew I should have saved those lousy stock manifolds!

Excellent kit for sure. I'll be ordering the non budget kit probably within the first week of May. Will the full package be available on those as well?

Just curious, how much does the PT67 turbo weigh? And which PT67 is it exactly? Is it it tangent or on center?

Is there a way to support the piping more, maybe the cold side? A heavy turbo with a long moment arm seems like it could have issues with vibration failures if it's not supported in a few spots to shorten that moment arm.

Definitely a good price on the kit, though.

You can use shorty headers since they retain the same location as the stock manifolds, and flow a tiny bit better. So when ready to get the budget kit sell the longtubes, get shorties and then hang on!!!!

Yeah I was thinking that. The only thing is how efficient will shorties on the budget kit be? Just as good as the tubular full kit they make? I'm still working out all this turbo stuff.

I would go for that if I could make that work. This summer either I was going to do the turbo kit or the shortblock. So i'm trying to get the kit this summer if I can.

Also who makes a decent set of shorties I could use? If I could go that route maybe I can still get my turbo kit. I read something about the JBA shorties might work? But they are like 1000 bucks. Hell I only paid 700 for my long tubes!

theyve done studies that 03 ls6 Z06 stock mani's make just 5 hp less than a set of LT's so its definitely possible to make the power on the stock mani's or shorties.
