I'm sure Don will post the official price shortly with a break down of what's included with the kit.

I have been in contact with don and sent him some pictures it seems that where he has mounted the turbo will not work at all with the RHD cars i have forwarded some more pictures on to him from the other side Passenger RHD neer the battery and he will review them shortly it seems like there is more room there but still not sure. If we can get enough support for RHD cars then Don has expressed an interest in working toward a kit for us aswell

We can put together a list of potential RHD buyers either post on the Board or pm me and we will see how we go, altho im not to sure how don will be able to develop this if he does not have a subject car.


Id love to ship mine to u but that is really unfortunate as the shipping cost would be more than the car well close to it

I'm using the assumption that the firewall is a flip flop. I should be able to pull my steering column out and all remains the same.

I'll be working on the official pricing tonight and tomorrow. I have to put together something for a public reveal.

There will be

MSRP
MAP Pricing Schedule (dealers only)
Introductory Offer Pricing (Not sure how long we'll run this)


Here is a price though. When purchasing a kit, you can bundle and save on our 2.5" catback exhaust system for $850. The same will go for the 3" Catback if you upgrade your Turbo Kit to 3" Downpipe.

I'm not worried about this, but you may want to see if you can entertain offering any financing deals for some clients, possibly though a local bank, etc. I personally would never buy something that is not essential for credit, but there are those out there who would

from what ive seen, RHD cars have the MBC and battery box flipped, meaning whichever side the steering wheel is on, the MBC and associated brake hardware will be on that side, with the battery on the other side.

I have been reviewing the pictures and comparing it is very much as you say a flipflop setup. well if you need anything else just let me know

Particularly when hearing reports that people have bumped the redline up a couple hundred with no problems. Almost sounds like they provided themselves a safety margin.
It likely is a safety feature. The car runs very rich up top and just the ECU tunes have been able to get rid of it and make more power up to 7500 RPM.

Great job on the turbo kit, wish it came that way from the factory!

As far as financing and all of that, I wouldn't get into that game. If people can't afford to purchase a decent turbo kit outright they probably can't afford to fix the engine if it blows up...

The more I think of it, the cooler an auto would be with this set up. With how fast it shifts? This thing would just pull and pull GTR style...

Well, without being a GTR and all...
