Its pretty simple to yank the s/c apart too. Hell of a price imo.

That would be a twin charge kit. The kit the op is talking about is the turbo only kit. You take the rotors out of the s/c and replace it with a block off plate of some sort and the air blows right through it. Crazy numbers either way just less spool time on the twin charge.

yeah had to be twincharged. I am about to pull the trigger on this kit, but i think a new turbo mani would be better, but if it works fine it would be nice to save some money lol

Yes but it is the easy way to keep your belt set up and keep the stock cooling system without having to go air to air. Easy way to make 350+ with a $2000 purchase. I did contact them about it and it doesn't come with a bov or bpv with the non fmic kit. Not sure why but seems like it should. So tack on a couple extra hundred for that.

but you have horrid air flow through it and you have another pulley spinning that does nothing, just wasting right there. if you are a cheap ass sure it "works" but its not and ideal setup.

Easier, direct bolt on and Im more familiar with it now. There was too much work in converting to turbo that I could deal with atm. I would love to get a big turbo one day in a different car. Mine doesnt even have lsd


Northvibe- Its still a step up from the supercharger and a good starting point. I still sometimes regret not getting this. I do agree with you in getting a different intake mani, but this works just fine for starters.
