Thank you for sharing all of these resources with us Kyle, it is very admirable of you. I would hope to do the same if it was available to me.

I know you would. Who knows what the future will bring. We will see-I hope to see some 500hp Legends in the next year or so. We need all the help we can get. Your welcome for the help!
Thanks for the props!

500 is rediculous... If we can even get 300 whp then we would have cars in the low 13's if not high 12's.

Exactly, that is my point. To now, everyone should know that I am insane by normal standards. 300whp will be very soon! Not far or difficult at all just waiting for me.
Wooohaha!

has to do with weight, gearing etc....

We will know soon enough what he can do. Also you have to know..this is on a type 1 with how many miles??

300hp easy soon.

you mean on his new 5spd sedan??? he might not have time right now. He is fine tuning his auto right now for you guys so he can redo a dyno perhaps and a quarter.

You know....for advertising purposes.

Pulleys, pulleys, pulleys

Haha-You know the worst part about being a car guy. You have a million projects going one at once and it is the hardest thing to finish one at a time. When the turbo Legend is done then the pullies will be tested but before that I need my baseline dyno. The firebird is in garage for now. They will get done hopefully soon!
Thanks, Kyle

I am fine with offering the kits up for sale, but to this point I have not because I want everyone to see what the final product looks like. I also want to make sure the ESM fixes the check engine light. I think it will but I am just going to have to ask some one to try it out unless I get access to a cp. You can order whatever size turbo you want. On a smaller turbo you will need more boost to get the same hp.
Hope this help!

When do you think we will be able to see the final product?

Mine should be done in 2 weeks or so. Who ever orders the kit will have a few slight differences in their kit.
Thanks, Kyle

^why is that?

 

[sr79labrat]

^why is that?

2weeks is a over estimate but I hope to get r dun earlier. This depends on how fast jet hot send my stuff back.

The changes are improvements-to clean it up and improve flow on the kit.
I am looking into enlarging the ports and primaries to better match the exhaust ports on the heads. The other change was to make the furthest primary on the driver side manifold a smoother transition.

That is about it.
Thanks, Kyle

I've read through a bunch of pages (not all), but couldn't find an exact cost ($1000 down, I saw that)...just wanted to get an idea for the future, so I can start saving (or keep dreaming).

Much respect to labrat for making this happen either way.

I think it was around 3000-3500 for the whole kit.

$3500 but you have options to reduce cost if that is needed.
Thanks, Kyle
