Pic of the intercooler - Endcaps are welded on by hand at SFR:


Pic of the intercooler installed - had to trim a little off of the bottom plastic grill, as you can see... Looks SICK!

Pic of the crosspipe, I believe. This is the piping that will join the 2 headers, then merge into the turbo:

Also, it will depend on the options you want... Like Jet-Hot thermal coating on the pipes, full ball-bearing turbo or not, piggyback ECU needed or if you have your own, etc...

For pricing, you'll need to contact them directly...

Why did yall mount the turbo so low?

Where is the oil return going to feed into?

Got a PN on your sump pump?

BTW, I bet you could push 8 psi.. what engine management are you using?

Are you going to shield the turbo with anything? I would not water or road debris hitting it.

I am not hating, just asking questions. It's all love baby

yeah that seems to be where it may be going.


I actually got my answers in the 5th gen thread.

I put this in here for our records more than anything.

Yeah, the modifications to fit the VQ30 from the VQ35 kit will be minimal. Plus, we already have a return style fuel system, which SFR typically adds to the kit.

A "tuner kit", ie just piping, oil/water lines, scavenge pump, option of turbo flanges, on STOCK manifolds, would be BADAZZ and reasonably priced. I *HOPE* they offer this.
