Full boost will be available in the low-to-mid 3000 RPM range. This is the primary reason our Super 20G has enjoyed such popularity in other applications...its ability to support up to 500 engine HP while still maintaining excellent street manners and usable power is much appreciated by its owners! Many is the story of people taking less sophisticated, laggier turbos off in favor of Super 20G.

Well then!
Seems like we are pretty in line with what everyone would like to see insofar as equipment levels. I will do some minor tweaking based on the suggestions here...thanks very much to everyone for the input!
I will now proceed to the much-awaited pricing determination phase. We'll have this info available later this week/weekend.
In the meantime, please feel free to add more commentary...I appreciate the feedback!

I say to scratch levels 1 & 3.
2, 4, & 5 seem best fit. Or you could offer 2 & 4; with the OPTION to have the Inj & Tune included for a little extra.
BUT, I think these are the things that should be offered separately.
Turbo Manifold
Street Race Intake Manifold
I know a lot of the other things (Turbo, FMIC, Blow-Off) are already offered seperately on your site. I believe that these 2 things are the ONLY things you should worry about providing for the DIY'ers.
I can't WAIT to here the Numbers & Pricing! I need to start saving!

I think all 5 levels are dead on! Don't touch them!
I'm considering your level 5 kit, just have to see the pricing.
Oh and get rid of my brand new TVS HTV1320. Any takers?

Ride the clutch out til it goes, then upgrade.
Stage 2 axles, but could still get away with stockers.
3" catback for sure, engine/trans mounts would be good but not needed.

My guess is around $4500 with the intake manifold. Considering their jbody ecotec turbo kit is $3495-$3695 without an intake manifold.
I'd like to see a lower price, $4k with everything. Still high for most, but this will be a quality kit.
I have the Hahn 3" catback.
There is a slight fitment issue, wants to hang offcenter to the left, in your bumper cutout. It also slightly rattles on the axle. Sucks after paying that much, but I still love it.

Aligning it in the bumper opening can also be achived via some adjustment.
Thanks for loving it!

How do folks feel about this ballpark:
$4000 to $4500 for Level 5...the Complete Solution. That's just a ballpark, it's no guarantee of actual pricing, but let's just say I am looking at y'alls 'comfort level'.
I must emphasize that while we are about to divulge actual power numbers (on the Dyno today!), this system is built with all The Good Stuff:
So, this system is going to breathe VERY well, and airflow = HP. We are already well over 300 WHP at very moderate boost levels. News at 11!
In the meantime, how's that price range seem?
60lb/hr will be the standard offering. We may offer larger ones if need dictates...if course, PortFueler will be the hot ticket for the mega HP setups.

- Super 20G Turbo
- 3" Quick-Release band clamp style exhaust housing and downpipe
- Huge FMIC...same as on Paul's and Joe's monsters
- BIG charge air piping and air intake system
- StreetRace Sheetmetal Intake Manifold
- Billet blow-off valve
