Definitely not breaking any land speed records with our production, but it will be done in the reasonable amount of time.

Compared to most of the other FI builders, I think 4 weeks for a complete kit would make you guys the KINGS of FI Assuming you can deliver the goods in said time-frame If this turns out to be as good as it sounds, LT1 guys will have it made for sure !

Eric,

Any chance of a hot parts kit for those of us on a budget or who already have a blower?

My only concern would be turbo fitment. We used a Turbonectis 76mm turbo, but are unsure of how different manufacturers will work out.

We have a customer that is bringing his car to us for a kit, and already has a Precision head unit, so we should have some data after that vehicle.

This is great news ! Do you have any pics of the exhaust setup coming down from the engine bay to the I-pipe ?


Another question, will this kit allow a T76 GTS or a TC78 to be used ? If so, what additional HP gains do think would be made by this upgrade. Let's use the silver formula as a basis of answering the question, if possible. Do you allow for other turbo options in place of the turbo that comes with the kit ?

The 5th pic down was the money shot I was looking for Do you have any additional pics of this area (5th pic). I'm wondering if you could provide an option for an electronic cutout to be installed in the section of pipe that comes down to the bottom of the car. I assume this section of pipe is 3", stainless or mild steel piping ?

Mike,
Yep we can put the provision in for an electric cutout. This particular kit is mild steel, and ceramic coated.

Hey Eric,

Shoot me a quote for the hot parts when you get a chance. I'm still kinda curious.
