Turbo hot parts Why are the hot parts so expensive? I would like to get 2 kits 1 LT1, 1 LS1.
Ive checked a few sponsors, anybody know where else I could find some?
What all sponsors carry them? Im sure theres some I havent seen yet.

Thats the price you pay for speed.My bros and i make are own turbo kits for are own cars, out of our 4bay diesel shop. That saves alot of $$$$$$ and i get better at tig welding every time.

It all boils down to time involved to build the hot parts. Time isnt free, but we all know that. What kinda LS1 setup are you after? I do the 6.0L manifold setups. I could probably do you a charge pipe setup and down pipe resonabley. Just keep in mind the A/C goes out with my setups.

its not mass produced and its hand made-(labour really)
when u look at good hot part done by hand and eye -u know its worth the money-
some of the hot parts-the cutting and getting the materials is piece of cake-but the nice even welding is just pure sex and thats 1 thing that would take me ages to learn or master-
turbo stuff aint cheap but if done once and once only and proper the hp speaks for itself-
only telling u what others have told me and thank god i took their advice-
