Seen this shared on Facebook yesterday. Thought i would share it on here. The kit was located on eBay made by Cxracing. No other info available on the website or web from what I have searched. I did look at the eBay listing it's for the hotside and a few other pieces.

I just looked over at Ebay. The kit I listed above is basically what Sactown has. Only one Wastegate and one BOV, less piping and easier access to the turbo.

I don't care about AC since I don't have it anyways. PS I would like to keep, but I've read they can modify the kit so you can keep the PS if you call and order it. But if I had to loose it, whatever.

maybe you should start lifting weights so you can turn the steering wheel, pussy

I'm going to put that snake in your bed tomorrow night when you're sleeping.

Then I'm going to laugh my ass off everytime you whiff on a duck Saturday.

Look at this on eBay:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/182393562201

CX Turbo Header Manifold Downpipe Intercooler Kit for 05-14 Ford Mustang 4.6L V8

So the complete tuner kit is released. I'm curious would this be a better option vs the on3 kit? With a price close to what a on3 kit cost. Who wants to try it out and see? Lol.

I might use some of their stuff for the cold side. I like how I can keep my ABS stuff. But I'm not would abbot the location of the turbo out having two wastegates for one turbo.

I also wonder about the turbo itself. Brand etc.

Very tempting, but if I'm trying to make somewhere near 900rwhp butt sure this will work. Has great potential.

Well with any Chinese turbo kit including on3 to get serious with it you need better a turbo ,wastegate & BOV. I think I would rerun the up cold side to be more of a straight line I think it's completely possible. Also this kit is for 05-06 coolant so that would be a negative for me. It is a 3" down pipe with is a plus. There is some videos on YouTube of other cx racing kits

It looks like it would work for most applications. I've been reading a ton lately and cruising some other sources for more and more info regarding turbo applications. So much to know and learn.

But like advice I've given a few others here. I'm not going to recreate the wheel. I'm going to try and copy someone else set up that has had success.

Well a little advice on this I have reading a lot about their other kits. I would stay away from this so many horror stories of shit it's pointless. I won't be the first that's for sure. I guess I'm just gonna pull the trigger and go CG Fabrication. But first I'm going to buy a tig welder for my shop. It's much more needed at the moment.

So that's my thought too. CG fabrication has a good reputation and their stuff looks legit. I have no idea how to weld, but my good friend is a master welder and has volunteered to help fab up a cold side when the time comes.

Garrett/Honeywell also makes a twin hot side for our cars. But I have not seen it in person or seen anyone with the kit. I like the idea of twins but the cost starts climbing, you have to get two of everything and the piping becomes quite involved.

With the CG kit, you can just put a big single dump out the side and be done. If you want you can reconnect to the stock exhaust but I will be getting rid of that too.

I'm looking at a PTE 7675 or maybe slightly larger, I think they make an 82mm, depending on PTE says. I think the 7675 is now rated at 1300 hp so I don't think I need anything bigger. I would have to go with a different block to take advantage of something making more HP.

A billet wheel with ceramic BB spools faster than the car can handle. AMS 2000...All it takes is money ;-)

On the cg kit unless you get them to change it you can only run a 76mm with a Bw sx475 frame is almost to for the kit at 76mm. Even with the radiator moved forward and slims fans there is barely any room. Also with that turbo you have to clock it straight up. Blowing down puts it into the belt. I know someone building their car using the cg kit right now. But I have a plan on how to do it I may just buy the headers or ask them to built the cross over pipe for a larger pipe. Move the location of the turbo forward a couple of inches in order to fire down. Then move my radiator up to where the condenser sits. Might even swap to a dual pass radiator and change the thermostat housing to a 06 that points straight forward. Don't know if that housing will work with the 07 coolant cross over. If not I think I have read about people cutting and rewelding the housing for the Paxton and frpp intake to work. But if I can do that I can have the turbo clocked down and have the coolant line run straight across to the radiator. Dual pass radiator has the ports on the driver side. I don't have a sway bar so I I'll have plenty of room with this option.
