This is very real

i have a mandrel bender im working with to mass produce the kits

 

If you ordered today the kit would be ready in 3 weeks

 

You can have a bar and plate OR Tube and fin your choice

 

flanged to fit stock turbo w all couplers and T bolts

not shipped price of $1150

 

This is very tempting..I cant wait to see the dyno results.. One question, what is the difference between the bar/plate and the tube/fin?

I have not seen many dyno results on the 40t. But given the stated flow rates It dosent look to "big" If im gonna screw with the turbo Im not gonna get somthing that might not give me over 300 WHP on pump gas on a conservative tune.

 

If I upgrade I want somthing with at least 20G performance.

 

If you guys can get over 325 WHP reliably on pump gas with a 40t Ill be happy. Because I believe the 40t is a very good everyday turbo. The 50t might be a bit laggy.

the 50t wont boost well till about 5K

 

the 40T on an sti makes 340-350 ftlbs and

310-320 whp @ a conservative tune (ie using a stock wrx actuator)

i have already dynoed this and i will be doing a FMIC'ed 40T on monday

on a LGT

Remember, right now in the design phase still........:D Why flip the manifold if you don't need to? Pretty sure the goal is an easy bolt on solution......most people prob don't wanna be flip'n around their manifolds. It would be easier to make though ;)

 

As for the battery, we talked about it......that's about it. For the amt of times you replace the battery, take'n off a few bolts won't bother me. Either that or grab a smaller better battery :D

 

Time will tell......

You could relocate the battery to the trunk. It would improve on space and another area where the front mount piping could go. It should be VERY easy to make a braket to mount it as well. ;) Good job though! Can you take a pic of the turbo where the FMIC mounts to it? That's the only weary area I have in my opinion, is the angles....
