Charged Air Sys Twin Turbo Kit Looking to get $4500.00 for the kit. I have other pictures if you like. Just let me know what you'd like to see.
Kit comes with:
Front mount Intercooler
Blow off valve
Two hybrid T3/T4 Turbochargers
Two Tial wastegates
Manual boost controller
Exhaust manifolds
no CATS. come with an off road y-pipe
coming off a 6-speed car. not sure if there's any clearance issues on the auto trannies.
Reason for selling:
TH400 bellhousing is too wide for wastegate placement. I want to go forward with the TH400 so I'm going with a different setup.
Post if you have any questions.

Oh, there is interest, but I just dropped a few grand on high compression heads so going boosted is sorta out of the question for a while....if only this would have been for sale a bit earlier. Looked into the STS too, but personally I feel it will be a while before anyone puts down 'really' good numbers/times with it if they do at all. Not knocking it, but I think a regurlar turbo setup will be easier to upgrade if I decide I want more power than the STS. So for now, I think I'm just going to go H/C & maybe throw some giggle gas on it if the heads & wieght reduction don't do it for me.

I dont think thats a true pic... looks like Tonys old web picture... I beleive CAS kits do not have the waster gate plumbed from the log, but through the intergal turbo hole, then into a pipe to the gate. Just want this to be pointed out... correct me if I am wrong.
BTW, these kits are a work of art and can make big power for anyone unaware.

Jammer, it's a true pic. Just ask Pro Stock John since he's seen the kit and can vouch for me. Tony DeQuick captured the picture off of my website and placed it on his site. Tony decided to change the wastegate design to shrink the build time and to also lower costs.
I took the pics in my garage when I removed everything to fix a head gasket that was allowing coolant to weep. That's what I get for running 10lbs of boost through a 11.0:1 motor. I have a new iron motor block built now with about 8.7:1 CR and can run some heavy boost on it. Unfortunately I bought a TH400 and I'd like to get some real ET's out of the car. Now the wastegates would actually touch the bellhousing of the tranny if I tried to squeeze it in there.
I've got the original pics I took if you want proof. They show my workbench in the background of my garage. I cropped the background becuase I thought it would look cool on my website.
By the way as far as HP goes. I ran it at the track on a launch at 10PSI and the thing lit up and made the car lean over like it was on a 200 shot.

LOL.....thanks Noyzee
I'm doing well. Finally got my damn motor built correctly and finished up. Now my tranny's too big. I guess my option is to keep the 6-speed and leave this setup on it. But I really want to have the ultimate drag setup. Th400 with transbrake.

Jammer absolutely no offense taken. I have no problem with anyone asking any questions about the kit or the pictures.
I was just mentioning the folks who know me so in case anyone is worried about my word or my setup. It's all good.
