Looks good. That's fairly similar to the price I've been told. Add about $200 and include the turbo.

You have your choice of 1 5/8 or 1 3/4 headers also. Plus the liquid to air IC also uses a heat exchanger, so daily driving is not a problem.....so the kit looks like it will make plenty of power. Also you can purchase it with a GT80 or the new precision T76 GTS which is rated 1150hp...or almost the same as their T88 and it will spool quicker.......hard to beat.

awesome. I'd like to see just a list price for kit items individually, PICS would be great too (other than the 2 pics in the "Project cars" section.

that intercooler looks similar to the one's Zturbo was using. Any info on what HP/CFM that's rated to? (i think it's pretty decent)

Pugs, I think you can choose what material you want the headers to be made out of. I think they have mild steel, 304SS, and 321SS, but don't quote me on that.


TimbrSS, I don't know anything about pricing individually, but you can call Greg @ 1-210-657-2706, and he will tell you whatever you want to know. As for the intercooler, not sure on the rating, but the same intercooler is being used on some of the their mustangs which are making 800+rwhp, and seeing 85 deg IAT's.....which is very nice.

ive been waiting for them to release something.........their mustang kits look like theyre really good quality.



my question, is why are they using an FMU?

i thought those added fuel linearly for a supercharger, i wasnt aware you could use it for a turbo setup.


i wonder if they will sell the kit without the FMU and i can just upgrade my injectors.

the FMU adds fuel with BOOST, not rpm

Jordan is correct, the FMU works off boost pressure.....just like a boost sensitive fuel pressure regulator.

Anyhow here are the pics I have at the moment. I will have new pics around lunch today and I will post them as I get them..... Keep in mind these are the kits with no coating...





Intake plumbing

No manifold here....

Crossover with flex section...good idea


BTW: You may have to copy and paste the links....not sure if direct links work.
