You still can. These kits are custom built when they are ordered. So there is still time.

Kenne Bell, maf/intake piping, and heat exchanger and stuff have been removed.
A little bit of the methanol system is left to be removed, some wiring changes, and remove the headers.
Then I'm ready for the twins kit!

A little song is in my head now...
I've got the no inter cooler blues...no intercooler blues...gimme an intercooler, gimme my boost, but oh I hate this no-intercooler blues

Good thing all this came yesterday


Couplings clamps turbo blankets vacuum line and fake cats

 

[lito]

Fake cats? Do they make visuals in TX?

 

[Bobby]

Must have. That both asked for them.

 

[lito]

I have the feeling that things are "different" in Austin than in the rest of the state.

Not sure. We will do what ever anyone need done to the kit. It is basicly a custom kit. We build them how the customer wants it.

Bobby, are those for a 3" exhaust? they look like 2.5".

Need to maybe use something like this?

Never will happen. Too much revenue for the state, and the big cities were starting to have air quality issues.

 

[JeremyH]

Yup they are 3".

 

[TexasBlownV8]

Whew! Don't scare me like that!!!!!
..we are anxious to get these in our hands...

Just a question I've been getting, why did y'all place the turbos down low out of the way instead of up in the engine bay closer up top, like you see various twin setups like? I've been giving a couple of answers that I think are right, but please enlighten everyone reading this thread as to what the proper reasons are

Seance they are oiless we can put the turbos anywhere without the use of a scavenge pump. But the main reason is heat under the hood that gets trapped there and makes for high iat. Seance we dropped them down out iat are lower then ever before with the use of an air to air intercooler. Also the closer you can get the turbo to the manifold the better. It hold heat better which helps with spool up. We wanted to make a kit that spools fast and makes killer power. And to achieve that you have to have cool air entering the motor.

2019 here. The reason is because of obd and non obd cars becoming extinct. Supposedly it will be done over time and every year some zip codes drop off of the emissions testing list. Hasn't happened for me yet. Our state subcontracts the testing out so it costs them money. At least that's what they say. They also said they lost money on alcohol sales when it was only sold at state run stores.
