gale banks TT kit for chevy 350

Has anybody seen this? http://www.torqueandchrome.com/350twinturbo
I mean come on, without an intercooler? Those IAT's have got to be crazy high with anything over 7lbs of boost. I know its gale banks and all, being the turbo mastermind... but what does everyone think about this?

That setup, in the pic, looks EXTREMELY similar, to that of his, from 20 years ago. BTW, with a dediated WI system in place, a person wouldn't need an intercooler.

It would take a lot of work to conform that for an LT1... you'll need a lot of space.

I sent them an email with the detail specs of my 69 Camaro 2 weeks ago... no response. If customer service at Banks is that poor, I'm not impressed. By the way, their inquiry form really is bad at best.

I think that kit has been "in the works" for the last 5 years.

I've been talking to one of their head sales people for this system and a few of thier suppliers. They are still getting some things set for the big send out of it. They are also making an LS1 version. But you are probably going to have to relocate some accessories for this kit. I've been waiting for them to come out with a parts list and individual parts priceing for a few months. Things are taking a long time. i've lost interest and am going with my own custom kit.

I would love to do a custom kit. We just can install anything in Cali without CARB approval. Yes, I talked to them again today and the sales person mentiond 60 days.
