Default What kit options are there for an S88??

I think I've decided to put an S88 on my 408 over the winter. I've been looking around and the only 'kit' I can really find is the OFI setup. Are there any others out there that I can buy and do the install myself?

I think OFI can put a T6 flange on their kit for you?

And if they can't getting a set of stainless steel headers and down pipe fabricated doesn't really cost that much esp if you have a machine shop hook up - I think mine cost me about $1500 then $300 more for the down pipe which I fabbed up with a friend.

Or you can hire a shop like stenod(sp?) to make you a custom kit

Correct, the only off the shelf kit is the OFI kit that does the S88. You will love that turbo....

I'd love to have stenoid or speed inc do one of their custom kits but it's just not within my budget. Two trips out and back plus their labor would probably be as much as the kit was. Their kits are so nice looking though.

It might not be in your budget,but from what I understand a ofi kit is almost a 4-6 month wait. You could save some cash in that amount of time and get what you really want.Ofi kit's are nice,but take's to long to get them.IMOA.

you can also buy some of the other required stuff and get it done while you wait for your kit like

fuel system
gauges (wideband, boost, fuel press are good ones)
hptuners
etc etc

I do offer a kit for the t6 turbo setups. There is a wait for them, but I cant say how long until you place your order. I offer them in a couple different ways.
