I am curious about this kit as well. What is the biggest turbo you can use? Also, for us 3 inch all the way back to the catback people what will you have to offer?

we are going to offer a few different exhaust systems for you guy. first with the normal kit will be the 3 split to twin 2.5, then there will be the split to 3 and there will also be a single 3 inch all the way out the back. the last one may be an option and may not be. it all depends on how well it would perform. we are still looking into the turbo size a little more but there is just so little room to work with it really makes fitting a bigger turbo in there without moving a lot of things and offering a custom radiator fan which makes the price not look so wonderful.

i am hoping to have a dollar figure that i have to spend to get 50 sets of hot side of the turbo system. it seems to be pretty good so far. once i get the quote i will get my originals back and then we can do our testing and then she will be ready for the market.

I understand keeping the price down. A T76 is not enough turbo for a 408ci low compression motor. It will work, but I would think a T88 minimum would be ideal for my car when I switch from nitrous to turbo.

that is our next project after we get this kit done. this is a kit more toward the 346/347 or the 364/370 guys. we do realize that this isnt a good setup for the 408. once the first kit is complete and have a few on others cars then we will begin trying to figure out how to switch over to a t 88. we initially started with a T88 but the room in this car is a killer as anyone who owns one knows. we have learned alot about how to manipulate the room in the engine bay of this car and think it is possible to make this work with the T88. the only thing that it would require is an aftermarket fan but i dont think that will be to big of a problem.

Finally have the updates on pricing. We will have 50 kits ready around the new year. we will have a sale on them with a Minimum of 10 kits for $5499. if we can get 17 orders we will sale it for $5250. once we get some numbers off of our car we are going to start the sale. if we dont get 10 or more orders the kit will end up being a one of a kind kit and not available to the public. i will have my pre production set of headers and crossover in about 4 weeks. that is when the sale will start. once i get 10 orders i will give the word to my manufacturer on the last 49 sets that i have to buy. we will also sale the headers and crossover by itself with the v band clamps for $1000 first sale price and after that they will be $1299. as things progress there will be more updates and more options available but it is taking us longer than i thought it would but none the less it is progressing.

let me know if you have any other questions that i may be able to answer at the moment.

Thanks
Brad

If I didn't already have a kit, I'd be allllllllllllll over this kit at these prices!!! Vette guys would have to be a fool to not jump on this kit if you're in the market.
