I assume you are using the MSD wires since those are the only ones that will "clear" the manifold. This has become a huge problem for me because I keep melting the spark plug wire boots. The heat shield seems to melt after a while also.... Just wondering what other people that own this kit are doing.

Yep, it is the Stainless Works kit. I am running the kit with the T76, but it took modification.

I think HP performance has released their single front mount turbo, if they haven't yet, they will in the next week or so. The only thing that is relocated is the battery. Looks pretty nice IMO. I THINK the pricing will be right around 4500-4800 for the base kit.

The PTK kit is good system as well and is complete with everything needed. Makes gobs of power and will handle up to an 80GTS (~1200hp).
