I still have not seen any good pictures from this kit to see it's setup or even a dyno chart.

I street tuned this turbo car already, however, my dyno will not be setup until around January 1st so we will dyno it then for numbers. For any questions you can contact RX Performance direct (SC2150), I am not the installer, just the toona!

As for pictures I do no have any and I assume what you really want to see pictures of are under the car because I know Tracy has posted pictures of the engine bay in other threads however I do not know if he has any other pictures. But if there is anything you would like to see that doesn't require a lift (I do not have access to one) to get a picture of I will do my best to get that picture for you.
Thanks Zach; Enjoy the new power. Turbo is the best, just be VERY careful when the boost comes on. Also, be sure not go into boost if you're turning or going into corners. You can loose the back very fast.

Matt, are you opening your own shop? Isn't the kit yours that you brought with you when you moved to Florida?

Yes I am opening my own shop now (Had one up in North NJ for years). The base design was my kit that I we had made back at my old shop, but RX re-designed some aspects of the kit.

I just saw some pics on the forum from under the car. Looks nice & clean.
Did you also get Meth kit added? That would be very important. And you can buy the Meth from Bradenton's race track.

Right now Zach's is limited to 6-7#'s so no meth inj or upgrade fuel system. Just the injectors to match. Matt's tuning on the dyno will be the final (Matt does ALL of our tuning/dyno work) results to post up.

System is clean and dosent interfere with the steering column and being a front mount relies on gravity return so no scavenge pump.

Matt sized the turbo and he nailed it....by 2700 it is spooled up and making good boost so cant wait to see 1/4 mile times as well.

For more power, all Zack's build needs is fuel pump and change the wastegate springs, but it is a beast as is.

This is available complete, installed, tuned for under $7k and NO short cuts on any components....Tial wastegate & blow off, all stainless mandrel bent with the hotside ceramic coated (Zack's is wrapped) and choice of cold side pipes polished or painted to match the car.

Twin system is around a grand more and plenty of options depending on the goals, and we have install slots open now.

VERY nice and reasonable price. I'm sure you do well. Haven't followed, but what brand and specs turbo do you offer as part of this price range?
Thanks and...

p.s. Nervermind on the brand. Just saw the name on the pics. Just the specs.

I would think a complete turbo kit installed and tune for $7K would be a great deal.

Wow, looks awesome! I've always liked the look of the single turbo up front!
