Default Cartuning Turbo Kit for Sale

SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD

Alright, I'm demoding the car and am posting this in here because I bet 99.5% of the people here don't check the classifieds because it mostly doesn't apply.

This is a great opportunity for someone to get INSANE performance for a fraction of the price of new.

The car was just featured in Domestic Driver Magazine, if you want to see the article go to the site: http://www.domesticdriver.com/ and subscribe for free and you can check that out, page 27.

Here's what the kit has:

Turbonetics T66 Turbo
42lbs Injectors
Front Mount Intercooler
Alcohol Injection system
Electronic Exhaust Bypass Valve (e-Cutout)
50mm BOV
Turbonetics Evolution 38mm Wastegate
Autometer Boost Gauge
All Couplers/piping/nuts/bolts
**I will provide with the kit brand new gaskets/nuts/bolts/T-bolt clamps**

The Turbo and intercooler have not even 5000 miles on them since we changed them before the last dyno day and track day to the bigger intercooler and a larger turbo for more top end power. There is absolutely no sense of lag from the turbo in this car, it's completely amazing, you step on the gas and she just puts you in your seat and she fly's. I've had MANY friends ride in the car and are all amazed at the power.

The only thing you'll be responsible for is tuning, you can contact kevin@cartuning.ca and he can work something out for you.

My highest Dyno was 505whp@12psi, and best time at the track on stock rims/tires was 12.147@120.11mph, it's capable of mid 11's easy with slicks.

I don't have too many pictures of the kit as it's on the car right now, I'll upload pics when I take it off.





Here's a list of my vids: http://www.youtube.com/user/JeromeMichaud

I'm Looking for $3500, price is negotiable to a certain point and if I get a decent offer I will throw in the Patriot Gold Valve Springs if you need them, or if not then I will throw in the dual stage boost controller I have.

All parts will be packed/shipped the same way you would get the kit new from Cartuning so you won't have to worry about that. If I get a good offer it will be off the car and ready to ship this week.

Paypal would be prefered, if local or willing to drive feel free to come by and either pick it up or take a ride in the car and we can de-mod together. I did that on my last car, drove 8 hours to Michigan helped the guy de-mod and took the kit with me. Helped out a lot when I did the install after.

PM me or post any questions.

Thanks,
Jay

Just curious as to why you are selling the kit? Is it because of those crazy street racing laws there in Canada?

The kit at 8psi was no problem on the stock tranny with a shift kit which is about 400whp. We cranked it up to 12PSI and played with it more etc. so we upgraded the tranny so it would handle 500+whp.

We just put in a 300m Input shaft, 15/16th chain with 3.29 gears, new clutches and some customer valve body work etc.

I could sell the tranny for like $1000+your stock tranny which is dirt cheap but not 100% sure I want to go through the hassle to remove it etc. If someone was local we could both drive to a trans shop and they can swap them from one car to the other for cheap.

I'm taking the kit out in the next week and then will be looking for a new car so the trans will go with the new car if I don't have anyone interested. As an FYI I spent over 3k in the trans and I didn't pay any labour :o

Nope, they are not ceramic coated. If whoever buys it is interested in that I can arrange it.
