To be abit more specific it puts the wastegate routed exhaustgases back into the exhaust instead of dumping them to atmosphere. A car with open dumptube will be louder when the wastegate opens (during boost).

I'm not a boost guy but seeing the thoroughness of the kit from the conceptual stage to now in person has left me impressed.

I've seen the inlinepro, the greddy, all kinds of superchargers, but if my money was on the line I would pick this kit w/o question (new price for new price) over any sytem i've seen to date.

Great work, great shop.
Thanks for the compliments. Yeah, our goal is to offer the buyer a comprehensive turbo system that is well thought out and utilizes only top-notch components. If you liked the prototype system then you definitely want to stop by and take a look at the actual production pieces once they're finalized.

I would say pricing is in the expected range for a kit of this magnitude without engine management. What makes it special is the creative solutions for certain problems.
The complete product is impressive, minus the single exhaust which I am not fond of. (highly personal opinion, I understand that it is functional)

Are there any published pictures for the special enginemount below the turbo?

All in all, hats off for great work.
Once we have the finalized production piece done, we'll definitely post up pics.

We are working on an installation manual. We do not yet have an exact install time for the complete system. We can say, however, that not having to deal with removing the oil pan or taking trips to the hardware store should allow for some pretty quick install times.

Thanks Mike and Toan for taking time out of your day to show me the kit and answer questions.

Everyone else - If you're considering forced induction in the future take a serious look at this kit. They've thought of everything and produced a kit with quality parts in every area. IMHO this is the kit to go with period.
