Boosted Performance single turbo build

So how do you make the simplest forced induction kit on the market even simple/easier to install? Spend some extra time with a sharpie: I have been doing this on

I have been doing this on all the kits, it is free (no fancy lables, since it will be removed anyway) but works very well and all the customers really like it. I do the same with the oil lines.... It is not possible to screw it up.

I like the stealth look of the black wrinkle paint Sasha.
That's what I did for the IC piping on my '82 ZXT and it almost looks factory.
I wasn't sure if you were going with gloss black or not..

Your wrinkle paint jobs look perfect!

Thanks, glad you like it.

The two missing fuel pumps are going out today (Hugh and Rob).


I have had a hard time finding boxes that are over 30" long (due to the down pipe)...two days on the phone, and I finally got something. I will try to pick these up today, get the weight of the kit and send out final balances tomorrow.

On a side note, all packages will go via FedeX, since UPS does not insure packages any more (or for the last 1.5 years or so).

I am anxious to hear the reviews about this system on the 370 once installed and has had a few miles put on it. I will be going FI in the next 6 months and I cand decide which direction to but the price of this system is very attractive.

I like the idea of the turbo not being in the engine bay.

Never had FI before so im a complete newbie

I am just finishing up the install manual tonight, so you get 88 (78 MB's) pages of detailed instructions with larger pictures. This was the last thing on the list of things to do before I can officially start shipping the kits out.

I will be sending the totals out tomorrow. If I have the balances in by Saturday the kits will go out that day....I can see the finish line now.

At least you don't have to dish out another $3,000 for an install, a few more $$$ on an oil cooler kit, larger injectors, big fuel pump and oil pan spacer.
