poid speaks truth

vtc are you selling this?
it says $1400 ..

[vtc]

Nah im not selling, i just saw it.. it was listed originally at that price but the last time i looked it went down to 1000. I think that person sells other kits too..

Can you guys explain more on why the kit will have problems? just for future reference.

the manifold is SS Autochrome, reknowned for cracking unless yuo brace the turbo so that the manifold isnt supporting any weight.

The turbo looks to be one of those Stone Mountain racing type jobbies which tend to let the seals go within a few thousand km. Also the dump pipe looks to be SS Autochrome so wouldnt surprise me if that cracked as well (and if that flange goes all the way to the cat and there is no flex pipe then it will certainly crack!).

Those are the main issues, as a side issue it prolly wont live up to its claim of being able to retain A/C either
