Yes we can do that no problem

Will there be any MHI 20G/25G options or Garrett only? I may have been motivated to acquire another 370z and keep what I have.

There won't be any MHI options directly from us. But if you talk to a turbo builder like Forced Performance, ATP, or Precision, they might have the ability to build something that works, I am not sure.

A turbo just needs to have a Tial turbine housing to be compatible. The housings are made for Garretts.

Pricing is pretty much set, but I am waiting to announce the pricing all at once for the manifolds, turbos, downpipes, wastegates... even though the parts will be available separately, I want people to see a clear picture of where they are headed for final turbo system costs and how our pricing will compare to purchasing an entire turn-key system from another manufacturer.

Charles How long more are you thinking. I waiting on yours before I pull the trigger on my set up!

Well, I suppose I only need to just sit down for a couple hours and get the final pieces into the spreadsheet and check pricing on a couple different turbo combos. I cannot get the motor mount bracket or heater tube in the pricing yet since we are only just about to build them, but I can estimate what they will cost. Perhaps towards the end of this week I can post up the pricing information.

Plunk

Is your setup going to require a knuckle be placed in the steering column or does everything for with it in the current position?

TTZ34 10-20-2015 10:05 AM

^^^ yes wondering this as well

Boost4ever 10-20-2015 11:47 AM

The steering knuckle would have to be replaced if you were running an internal wastegate. That is not the case with this setup so I doubt the steering knuckle will need to be replaced

"Plunk" lol! The OEM steering knuckle was installed when we mounted the driver side turbo, so there will be no clearance issues with it.

You could fit an internal wastegate without having to change the knuckle by locating the turbo further forward and/or higher up. But of course that doesnt apply to our manifolds anyway since these are just for the Tial housings.

I am very curious to see the pricing haha

Gotta love tapatalk typos!

I guess I should have phrased my questions differently. Do we 'have' to have the aftermarket knuckle (like on the GTM or FI kit) or will it fit without modifying the steering column?

phunk 10-20-2015 02:10 PM

Again, There are no clearance issues with the OEM steering knuckle. It was installed while we were building the manifold, so we built around it.

phunk 10-20-2015 03:56 PM

EDIT: old pricing estimates are no longer relevant... much has changed since this point.
