Awsome looking kit Nick!!! Do you guys make an air filter kit too? (sorry, I'am turbo dummy, but I had to make my own for my F1, so I'm curious) Or does it mount right to the turbo?

I'd have to check with George.. its hard for me to picture everything when I dont get to install the systems ever...
I like it! Now if I could ever get back to the track... My last track outing was very traction limited. 1.6-7 60's running 9.8X @ 144-5 mph. Basically leaving off idle any thing else the tires just went up in smoke. Next tire at the track she'll have a spool and fatter tires!
Also more info on the Turbo, it is a Turbonetics F-1 mid frame, it has a T-4 1.01 AR exhaust and uses the Y2K compressor cover.
When we installed it and tuned it on the dyno we were making 820 to the wheels @ 19-20 psi.
I've always wondered how collecters were welded on. I'm not looking forward to doing that on the manifold for my LT1 car. I like that verticle core intercooler also. Why does it have two openings on the top? How much would one cost and what are the dimensions?
Real nice, cool to see how everything is put together. If i may ask what was the reason you guys are offering it now with an A2A intercooler, were alot of people asking to fab on up rather than using the A2W? And not to jack your thread, but would it be possible to run this on a stock short block LS1 untill a built motor is put together? Obviously not running an insane amount of boost to not destroy the engine, and with the proper fuel set-up to keep everything in check. Thanks

Basically, I asked for the Air-2-Air. Simple light weight and Efficient (with the right cores). The Cores are Spearco, so no cheap imports...
You could run this system on a stock engine, but as you said you would want to limit the boost untill you have real engine!
Nice, I really liked seeing how the header collectors went together. Do you backpurge with one fow meter or 2?

Thanks for the reply Ryan, so is this kit in production already for the public? Or is this particular one in the photos the first race kit with the A2A intercooler? I would definetly be up for this A2A kit in the near future if everything goes the way i want them to.
