Intercooler and Cross over (Wastegate) The old intercooler used to utilize two cast end tanks and now have these big sheet metal end tanks instead.
The inlet inside diameter is almost 20% larger now!
Notice the mismatched welding gloves hehe
Here is the second part of the cross over pipe not mounted. We are going to use a TiAL 44mm instead of the 38mm only because the customer plans on building a bigger CID motor later on.
Notice the bracing on the wastegate. This is way our turbo systems last vs. the rest of the competition. Instead of just building support brackets to brace the flange, we build around the entire pipe to strengthen it.
I should have some more pictures for the second half of our day!

Here is a picture of the air filter assembly without the paneling:
Note: it is not required to remove the paneling. I did it just for the picture
The kit is finished less the exhaust system. Here are a couple completed pictures of the crossover installed as well as the wastegate mounted.
We are also installing a Magnaflow 3" exhaust system which isn't installed as of yet but you can see where the downpipe exits in the pictures:
Here is what the top of the engine looks like fully installed. Everything is hidden, the way it should be
... except for that TiAL BOV which is a new addition in this kit
... Until tomorrow

Their old kit has been on this car for at least five years. No cracking yet. Looking at the new kits, it looks like they have made some really nice improvements.

If a system is tuned properly you shouldn't have to worry about cracking manifolds... If it does crack, send it back, we'll take care of you!

We dont have an online shopping card, just give me a call.
The easiest way is to PayPal it... that way I can copy and paste everything into an invoice

Looks like a very nice kit. I have been looking at the APS TT kit to put on my Firehawk this winter. They seem to have some problems with their turbo's and some other problems.
I also don't want to cut the car up either for the intercooler.
The engine has 40k miles on it and is stock. From what I have read you can run 8-9 psi safely and have 500-550+ RWHP. I am looking for more than the T60 that would give around 450rwhp.
What's the difference in spool time between to small turbos compared to a single T76 or T62?
Thanks for the info. This looks like a really good kit that a lot of people would be interested in. I can't wait to see more pics.
