Possible interest in a DIY starter turbo kit GP?
 
3 Attachment(s)
Any interest in a DIY group purchase? I am thinking two log manifolds going forward (deletes A/C) + crossover pipe.

3 Orders: $1000
5 Orders: $850
10 Orders: $700

Here is what I am thinking (both driver's & pass. manifold will look similar to this except facing forward, and the crossover will place the turbo in the middle near the water pump):

***Edit Took my old TT kit that I had sitting around and decided to modify it to make the first kit for the GP*** The first person in on this GP will get this first kit for $750 if they want it! It comes with a 40mm wastegate flange setup. I am discounting it because it is not the exact layout that I wanted to do (since most of it uses components I made 1.5 yrs ago)., but it is close and should make similar power.

Always with the no AC and the sweating.

I can do you one that keeps A/C, but it won't be part of the GP. :cool:

AC? Someone took my ac, heat, and defrost.

Driving in the summer is tollerable. Getting the wife to go anywhere in the car is a different story.

Good luck with the GP.

why not offer one like in the first pic to keep it to the drivers side and keep AC? i for one would be more interested in a kit if you did that.

I do make a log manifold kit that keeps A/C:

This GP is strictly for people who want to run individual manifolds to the front

Adding pics, plus a bonus offer. The first kit (which I am modifying from the existing TT kit I had made shown in the pics) will be sold for $750.

So, for example,the first 3 buyers that qualify for the $1000 GP will go like this:

#1. $750 (for the first kit)
#2. $1000
#3. $1000

I like that log kit that keeps the AC...thats nice.

Would it fit without standing up the radiator and still use the stock fans?

.....how well would that kit work with a master power t76?

my ears are up...:D

The kit that keeps A/C isn't part of the GP, but I can build that on a differnet order if you were interested.

Radiator can stand in stock location, but you will need slimmer fans.

MPT76 will work nice...
