Hey Sasha any kinda ballpark estimate when you will be accepting payment for the new batch of kits you'll have coming out hopefully sometime soon? And when you think they'll be ready for customers? I feel like this is a black Friday special and I'm out here waiting in a tent to snatch it up before their all gone again....

At this time I do not have a timeline.

However, to carry on in this direction...I have now built a new jig for the V2.0 manifold and the slightly different down pipe that will have to go with it. Y-pipe and re-circ pipe stay the same.

I have also made a set (V2.0) of new IC pipes (turbo to FMIC), and they take a lot longer to build than the original...as a result I may have to increase the price of the kit by just a bit. There has been a few additions/improvements in the last little while, and I have tried to keep the price the same. All these things are adding up though, especially now with the additional labour required to build the kit. The increase will be around $130.

At this time I am focusing on shipping one VHR kit to a customer with a built motor, and another twin scroll kit to a G35 customer, also with a built motor. These should be ready to ship at the end of this week. There is also a local customer who is coming in for a complete install at the end of May, so that kit still has to be built. All this fabrication should be out of the way by the end of this month.

After that, I still have 4 V1.5 turbo kits to finish. These will be available soon. These kits will come with the V1.0 exhaust components, but with the new IC pipes/routing and thermostatic plate (easy install). I am really hoping to get these out the door before the local customer comes in for a complete install on the last day of May.


Once all that is out of the way, it will be pedal to the metal on the complete V2.0 kit for this platform, as the demand is very high.

Always improving. Gotta love it.

Any idea when you might be able to think about building and sending V1.5 IC and Compressor cover for us with an existing kit? Worked out that cost yet?

This would be about $550+ shipping/paypal, and would include:

New turbo compressor cover
New IC pipes (powder coated)
New Oil filter (Mobil M1-108)
New themostatic plate with -8 an fittings
New (one) oil line (thermo plate to cooler)
New 90 degree silicone coupler (the rest are reused)

Wait...don't we need a new compressor cover too?

Yup, that is included in the price...just forgot to list it. Will edit the post.

elperuano 04-22-2014 02:30 PM

Daaaang.. so if I understood correctly, best case scenario on starting the new V2 kit will be end of May?

I got nothing. When I told the GF that I would be buying it if the price came in anywhere close to $500. Her response was that she already file it away as purchased.:roflpuke2:

I love that she's understanding about my boost monkey

I am lucky I don't even have to ask the wife for permission. :)

I don't have to ask either. It was more of a notificaiton.

And that is exactly why we rep you so hard. You've built a good loyal family of boosted VQs here. :tiphat:
