Mount it on the front fender behind the passenger wheel?

For my Zdayz 2011 video, I mounted my gopro on the lower left inlet of the front bumper. It sounded great in my opinion.

Sasha, will you be able to provide an option to have a high flow cat welded into your downpipe with this kit? (100 cell)

Boosted,

I read in my Rx8 days some of the guys used the Boost-A-Pump to keep fuel temperatures under control. Do you think with such a big pump that this would be necessary? Below is a copy-pasta of the Boost-A-Pump info and link:

Boost-A-Pump

Quote:

A time tested and proven Kenne Bell innovation, the BOOST-A-PUMP™, powers some of the world’s most powerful production street and competition vehicles. The 800HP Shelby Super Snake, one of the World’s Fastest Production Sport Cars, the 242+mph 806HP Koenigsegg CCR, the dual turbo 1100HP Lingenfelter 427" Corvette 900HP Mr. Norm Dodge and 650-825HP RPO Camaros and, of course, all the legendary Kenne Bell kits can use the BOOST-A-PUMP™ to reliably produce those big HP numbers - on pump gas! It activates only at full throttle or boost, so it doesn’t “bloat” or “overload” the fuel system at idle or cruise where full time pumps and extra fuel are not required. So, the fuel isn’t heated (gasoline begins to boil at 87°). No “cool can” is necessary. And it’s much easier to install (cut one wire) and more reliable than fuel pumps. And since the BAP is also a voltage regulator (exclusive kb) it helps prevent engine damage from low voltage/ reduced pump flow during electrical overload or failure. It will attempt to stabilize the pump voltage and maintain sufficient fuel flow.

any update boosted?

He is on his last family camping trip. I believe his intent is to start production when he is back

Picking up the materials for jigs this week. Things will start moving along now that summer is over (for us up here anyway).

I have never enjoyed reading through 54 pages straight on a forum in my life. This looks like a very thought out kit. I have REALLY been leaning towards going with the GTM stage 2 kit, but your kit looks just as nice. I would opt for open dumps because i want to be heard, but thats just me. Have you thought about a final price yet for your kit?

Thank you, the kit is simple and works very well. For power it is on par with the TT kits, with a larger fuel system and half the install cost.

The price with a complete oil cooler kit will be around $7300. This is a saving of about $1100 over the TT kit when you account for the oil cooler and better fuel system. This is a complete kit with UpRev, 750cc injectors, 340lph fuel pump...ect. Open dump will be a bit cheaper, and if you already have an oil cooler even cheaper. The install is also about half the price, not to mention that it is a straight forward DIY install.

If you have any more questions just let me know.

JMac88 09-12-2012 11:20 PM

Sasha, you should point out its the tuner version of uprev, not just the Standard

GaleForce 09-13-2012 07:57 AM

^^^ this kit really does include everything you could need. :tup:

I need to buy everything except for the Uprev. I already have the standard version, it would probably be cheaper for me to buy the upgrade to tuner from Uprev.

Wasn't sure if you saw this. I'm just curious if you think this is a benefit of not?

BTW...I never considered boosting via turbo until I saw this thread. So conflicted lmao! Great job!
