If you can get these to us to show how easy the install would be I'm sure it would persuade some people.

So that part of the manual we can skip...the drilling of the oil pan that is.

Correct. No drilling of the pan required with the MHI kit since it comes with its' own pan that has integrated oil returns.

Good news everybody!

By popular request, we are offering a third option to our financing programs. We are proud to introduce our layaway plan so people have another way to purchase our products. This will be a third option for people that want to pay for the kit over the course of a year without paying any interest.

The biggest advantage of this offering is the ability to lock in the group buy price with the layaway plan. Even though you can pay off the kit over the course of a year, it will be for the group buy price as opposed to full retail.

So, let’s say that we reach Tier 3 pricing, you will need to put 30% down to lock in the price and may take up to a year to pay off the kit.

OK, with this announcement you will have to have tier 4 because this list will hit 51 by the weekend with this option.

Not at all. We are already anticipating a large volume of these kits and we have been planning for this for over a year. We have a few systems in place that will ensure that we are fully prepared for the tsunami of turbo kit sales. We wouldn't have opened up a group buy if we weren't prepared to handle it.

if let's say nissan simply adopted this kit and everything is left the same for the 370z for their next gen... would you be disappointed?

This is what so impressive about how GTM has approached this FI offering.. it simply could have came from factory imo... I would definitely buy it over the toyobarus, stangs, and whatever sub $40K sportscar that are coming out the next year or so...
