Fs twincharge kit

2500.00
Includes all pipeing injectors turbo vacuum lines etc.
Pretty much just install tune and drive.
You may want to buy pistons as well they are not included and not nessesary unless you are going for big HP.
The system has an external waistegate and the turbo is good for up too 400hp
I no longer have the time to put into this race car so that is why I am selling the kit.
The kit itself is basicly new. It has 1000k on it, which was mostly highway miles for testing.
If you want your car to be stupid fast this is for you.
Please email me as i do not get on the forum as much as I would like to.

You may want to post specifics on this kit, such as how it differs from the Helix kit that carries a price tag of $4800 new.

equal length manifold custom turbo capable of 400hp external tial waistegate.
more than 15k went into development of the kit.
I am a little flexable on price as it is used, but all of my money went into the development of this system.

since it is used...though barely.

What is the labor time to install this kit? Will I be running to Home Depot 10 times for all the little parts?
Thank you
M

yes for the afc
no to home depot i will include everything and write up some instructions for you as well as include as many photos as possible.
install time would be all day at the most depending on your experiance.
If you were to pay a shop I would say 4 to 6 hours. at the most.
It pretty much goes strait in but you need to relocate the coolant tank and the power steering tank. I have extra hoseing from when I did mine so I will include those. You need to remove or cut the plastic that is against the firewall. I cut mine its much faster. This kit for whoever gets it has the potential to eat most of the other kits for dinner.

The kit you put together looks like a amazing bargain. I still would like to see a few more pictures of the entire setup.

Wow sweet one off kit. What turbo is that? Is it ball bearing. What exhaust manifold are you using? Is it one off also? What size down pipe comes with the kit? Is the wastegate plumbed back into the down pipe? Any problems with boost creep?

Turbo is custom small exhaust side larger clean side for quick spooling
3 in down pipe
waistgate open to air cause it sounds bad *** and shoots fire
It does have a pipe that could be welded to mate up with the down pipe
The manifold is one off equal length
no boost creep
Thanks for the bump.
all this talk is making me want to keep the damb thing.

Where is Mariokart right now???? He really needs to buy this from you. He is having his motor rebuilt and will already have the CP pistons and internals.

I should call him, or you should PM him.

If he doesnt want it I might......

Do you have any idea how much boost or hp/tq the kit is making on your car? Is there any reliability issues you have had or would forsee at all with the kit?
How about heat. I am running a stock IC would I have to upgrade it?

Man, I want this kit!!!!

I want it too but I'm broke after spending 7k to rebuild my car. You should get it but make sure you get it tunned. That is most important part. I will call you later.

I would not see any issues. a big ic would be better if you run huge boost but that is up to you. with the car un tuned and the waistgate totally open it put down 255 that was with just a pound or two of boost with a stock pulley. if you guys have other questions email me mdcooper@gmail.com i get those much faster. I had a sale pending but he did not have the money for it right now. mario what happend to your car that it needed a rebiuld?
