Anyone know anything about this turbo kit?

[rford426]

I have been looking at it for a few months now since 08nasty started his thread...No doubt SD and PH has a killer kit. For me I can get this kit for 2300 with coated piping and powder coated my color of choice...Now I have 4k to spend on forged internals and everything else I am gonna need to finish it up. Its all done i can run a moderate tune and replace what I determine needs to me replaced(wg,IC.) I wanted a master power turbo when I was gonna fab my own up like Willy. But now I have Forged Internals and boost at the same price as the higher quality kit. No doubt I would LOVE to have a ph kit or sd's but those are not in my sights being 20 and in school.

Just how I see it.

you will be fine with the stock turbo. it can make good power. and the worst thing that can happen with the wg is that the spring weakens and drops boost. it is kind of a fail safe. and the same with the bov. so really the worst thing is you will not make any boost and make no power, but you will still have your motor.

and in the end thats all im worried about a wg or bov are cheap compared to a sb

 

[Bobby]

exactly.

There's still about 4" of clearance between the pipes and the floor, and since the wheels will move only very little when hitting speed bumps and such, and the entire car will move up 99.9% of the time that you hit a bump. I honestly don't see this being a problem at all unless you hit a raised pothole that can go under the middle of the car.

Yeah what drop are you running ?

Well Miami roads can be quite vigorous in many areas so I will definitely keep you guys updated in a separate thread. I will also put no less than 1600 miles per month on this kit, so I will be a test of longevity and driveability

MMP doing the install?

If you need more ground clearance after it's installed I'll trade you my eibach pro kit before I put it back on.
