I agree... Bumble the kit was over 6k? If you need some 80 lb injectors I can get you some cheap you would just have to ship me yours back once you get the ones I send.

This is exactly the reason we are a little behind on shipping our kits out to our customers. I refuse to ship our turbo kits out unless it is 100% in kit form with all nuts and bolts. To many issues arrive when you send out a partial kit.

I noticed in your picture you have a methanol kit plumbed in. Are you spraying methanol as well?

Mike, Good job getting the kit installed and running well. I think you just dealing with a newer company. 581 rwhp is very good at 5psi.

Hard to give money to a company when two great companies who make awesome kits posted in this thread alone. Plus others entering the market all the time that have been doing great kits for years.

ID1000s. Go big or go home.
They do cost quite a penny though... $900+

JLE58 06-10-2012 03:17 PM

He doesn't need id1000's.

Turbo99 06-10-2012 03:21 PM

yeah some 800's will be plenty.

Bumblebee SS 06-10-2012 04:31 PM

i would love id1000 for future aka 12psi or more but i just wanna have 7psi and have fun

Turbo99 06-10-2012 04:39 PM

800's should be enough for 12 psi easy

Bumblebee SS 06-10-2012 10:29 PM

I've been confused if i want to keep this kit or go with the turbonetics one. Theres is nice and clean install too but i got alot into the fastlane kit to get rid of it. I was just highly upset this everything

The best turbo kit is the one that works! :clap:
I would say finished but they always seem to be a work in progress.

Full spool at 2700, 580 rwhp @5psi? I would say your Bumblebee Turbo system works great! Turbos make very efficient power.

Did you do all the work yourself?
How long did it take you to get to this point from the time you first started receiving parts?

Did you tune it yourself?

Great Job dude! I know folks who have bought turbo kits and been buried in the sh*t for literally years. Like they could've bought a ZR1...thats how deep they got buried.

We need more pics and a dyno sheet.
