No, just for a turbo setup. Will in no way work for a supercharger.
Thanks for the update mingo. Sorry to hear about your own troubles. I hope everything turns out okay and you end up making some money on these in the long run after you get a better manufacture.

Did the manufacture agree to make the 10 sets? Also, are the 10 sets going to be made sometime after the sponsered car is finished?

Any updates Mingo??

mingo

iTrader: (4)

the sponsor car has already been completed. the owner of the car is getting other work done to it for shows.. the 10 sets were suppose to be finished a long time ago.. i don't even have a turbo on my car.. so trust me this wasn't just a personal project.

where's my piping!?

JeEvE

iTrader: (10)

Damn! I was all excited. How about SSR Engineering? He offered above that he can do it but it may cost a lot more then planned.

SSR stole mingo's design

JeEvE

iTrader: (10)

Mingo, is that true?

Y2KevSE

iTrader: (13)

I meant another one. If not, try one that specializes in making turbo kits.

mingo

iTrader: (4)

i'm thinking about sending it over to taiwan, they have cnc pipe benders and cnc welding machines now... the welds are extremely precise.. might just take it on over in a few months..

Zack342

iTrader: (89)

Very interested.

carnal_c30

iTrader: (38)

DO IT DO IT!!! and the price is good correct??

I will always buy products of Taiwan... hahahha

mingo

iTrader: (4)

don't know about the price yet, but the initial price is going to cost alot more because i'll have to fly back there with all the fixtures, i might even have to ship some of the fixtures because it's oversized.. and i doubt they'll let me order 10-15 at a time.

iTrader: (32)

u should have known if u are getting things made in taiwan or any other out of the country places you have to buy a whole carton full of items...not just few pieces..

mingo

iTrader: (4)

i know that in most cases they will only allow large quantity orders, which is why i doubt i'll outsource for maxima parts, no disrespect, but the maxima market is not the best market for certain parts.

i've found manufactures that will bend, and others that will weld, so i might just have to go through different manufactures to complete the project. and i'll have to find another one just to cnc cut the brackets and flanges. so that makes 3 different manufactures just for one item.. GRrrrr..

Zack342

iTrader: (89)

Given the flexability of a turbo kit over the Superchargers i am becomming more and more interested in this as it materializes. Without having to reread this entire thread can you just hint at what is included in the kit and what we would have to supply ourselves? Obviously the tuebo is an item we would have to source.IS the I/C included? Any information would be valuable.

mingo

iTrader: (4)

as for the fifth gen i can supply the intercooler along with the intercooling pipes, however, i cannot confirm that about the 4th gen because the manufacture only cranked out one kit, and it's on the sponsored 5th gen, and the sponsored 4th gen was not ready for testing.

Zack342

iTrader: (89)

So as it is now, because i am a 4th gen/5speed MT. If i do get this kit it would require me to source my own intercooler and piping?

Do yourself and get T-bolts from NAPA and silicone couplers from that website.

carnal_c30

iTrader: (38)

by the time a new manufacturer is found the 4th gen intercooler & piping will be ready

mingo

iTrader: (4)

either way i can source the intercooler.

Zack342

iTrader: (89)

Cool keep the more user friendly this kit the more appealing it is. If piping and intercooler is supplied all that is left for me to get would be turbo, oil lines, couplers?

you can get t-bolts and silicone couples from me at a fraction of their cost

mingo

iTrader: (4)

hopefully the kit can be seen at HIN.. it'll depend on a number of things..

amimaxima

do you have any updates pictures or prices

mingo

iTrader: (4)

well i found a welding shop that will weld the peices together. now i just have to look for a reasonably priced manufacture that can do mandel bends in t4 stainless.

I spoke with them on the phone (westcoastbending.com) when I was considering doing a Turbo setup.

They were easy to talk to and pretty knowledgable. They may even have welding and CNC reosurces.....
