sounds like someone's house. i really think you need to check the company out before you send a money order. places that dont accept credit cards scare me.

Cold Side Clip.

*Mendral Bent I/C Piping $120 in materials alone
*HKS SS Blow off Valve $200
*Tail 38mm Wastegate $350

*Oil Lines and T's $25 MIN
*Walebro 255lph Fuel Pump and Lines $100

*Mendral Bent 3" Downpipe $200 (another DP?)
*Ceramic Honed and Bored 02 Housing $?? (WTF is ceramic honed?)

That all adds up to $2370 and I used really low prices ($600 for a hybrid Garrett?). That is with no fabrication costs and no profit. What does common sense tell you about this "offer"?

Sounds like a wierd hybrid turbo combo.

"t3/t4 Series Turbo w/ 20Gn Intake Housing and 276/12 Turbine, 19c Exhaust Housing 7cm Boreout and 10 Degree"

i would definitely be interested to see if this "company" is for real. IMO this might be for real, might not. 2-0turbo, you gotta realize that the prices you listed are much closer to what we would pay retail as the consumer.... assuming this guy has his wholesalers id number and business tax code, he would get all of that stuff for half those prices, or less in some cases. so when you actually figure out what it would cost to sell something like this, he is probably able to turn a few hundred bucks off of each kit, compared to the 800 that star turns or the grand that hahn turns. even still though, i agree with 2-0turbo's principle.....i could definitely smell bs around this new "company".....keep us informed though, do some background checks, see if its for real

 

[kamakazy59]

i think its pretty shady too now that i look at it. if it sounds to good to be true it probably is.

 

[Hektic]

Hmm.. 8psi on a non intercooled engine = death to ur engine.

 

[9D9 MITSU RS]

I have heard of 6-7 psi actually with a S16G. Non-intercooled and still reliable on the streets day in and day out. A shop is in the process of a kit, but I can't tell you right now. They want to avoid being bombarded with calls/e-mails until they have a proven reliable kit. It may not be so farfetched, but I think the prices are on that one.

Lets see, now a T3/T4 turbo is a t3 exhaust housing and wheel with a t4 wheel...........so someone explain to me where the 20G comes into this?

 

[dudasd]

And the intercolled kit, 14PSI on stock internals is another KABOOM waiting to happen......As the saying goes....."You buy K-mart, you get K-mart" Stick with a proven kit until there is more research on this thing or you'll probably end up eaither A) getting ripped off or B) having more problems than it's worth. Need I bring up the whole "great deal" from NER?????

Oh, I agree, it's bogus. It say 20G, 19C, GN (garrett grand national?), T3/T4, etc. He contradicts himself a 1/2 dozen times. Two downpipes, ceramic honed? He is full of $hit.

 

[MitzEclipse]

yo what!!!!

i just need the turbo exhaust manifold..... can u help me out?
