The G37 you are referencing was tested on our old DynoJet. We have a Mustang dyno now that reads lower. That is why the current numbers are lower.

We charge 25 hours for installing our turbo kit. That should give you an idea on cost based on your local labor rates.

You are correct. Really, the financing company requires a MINIMUM of 25% down. Obviously, if there is a difference between the cost of the kit and the maximum amount they'll finance, you'll have to contribute the balance.

Yes, we provide detailed instructions with pictures. I write our manuals and since I'm not a tech by trade I don't take various steps for granted and really work to spell things out. At the same time, most people don't read walls of text, so I let some of the pictures do the describing for me as well as add diagrams as needed. Overall, I'm pretty picky when it comes to manual writing and really do my best to ensure that they are as complete and thorough as possible. In addition, our techs proof read the instruction manual with a virgin install to ensure that every aspect is covered and that the manual flows properly with what needs to be done in what order.

The G37 version will be available at the same time. We just posted the press release over on the G37 forum as well.

Sam, this is incredible... this really could be THE TURBO KIT for many of us.
Let us know the details.. any drilling or welding during the installation??
Does it require new engine mounts? |
There is no welding required with any of our kits. We design our kits so they are effectively bolt on systems. Since this system is designed to be as unobtrusive as possible, the factory motor mounts are retained as well as the factory crash bar.

Whats the boost curve difference on 16g v 18g?
Has additional testing been completed on possible boost creep issues with iwg?
|
The recirc pipes for this kit are different from the Garrett kit due to various factors.
As for the boost curve difference, we will be able to show that on Nixlimited's car once it is completed since his car will have the 16g's. We will also be doing additional testing and verification with that system as well.

We charge 25 hours to install the kit in-house.
At a minimum, we recommend a transmission cooler whenever doing forced induction. Here is a link to an article I wrote on the subject of adding forced induction to automatic transmission cars:
