Search the forum. You can't find a single positive review from someone who has the kit.

Do some searching my friend, then spend your money elsewhere. I think I have read two good reviews about them. But those same people had to go through some bs to get to the point of satisfaction. I can't find the link, because I'm on my phone but, do a google search for "on3 turbo kit camaro5" and you should get your answers.

i had the kit and did 570rwhp. the kit would have been better if i wasnt trying to push more out of it. downpipe is small and has backpressure issues. my biggest complaint was the exhaust note sounded like a old chevy truck with glasspacks. maybe because of the single exhaust setup.

Cold side plumbing looked good. XS Power FMIC looked good. Turbo wheels are SUPER heavy. I imagine if I would have installed it there would be terrible lag for the 78mm. And well.... that's about it. I didn't receive a huge chunk of my purchase. Received a component that I didn't order... they claimed it was a UPS shipping error. The hotside I received was complete garbage. The driver side manifold wouldn't even mount up properly. When I finally got it in place, it was laying on the driver side fender and AC lines. You will spend more on fabbing up the garbage hotside than if you got a better kit. I packaged it back up and got my money back. Huge headache.

If you want QUALITY parts, heat protection, and everything else you can think of, get the HURON SPEED kit. Contact Jon and tell him I sent you. You'll end up just needing a turbo and fuel system and SAVE so much time and effort.

The on3 product itself is not that good and their customer support is worse.

Huron speed all the way for a single kit, Jon is great to work with and best of all they stand by their product 100%

i actually had no probs with fitment, i did have to bend the ac line a little,no biggie. lag wasnt too bad either. for me it was the downpipe and the exhaust note. im sure if you could fab in a new turbo and downpipe you could have a decent kit.

I have the on3 kit. The 76mm turbo I got with the kit took a shit at like 1000 miles. Nut backed out on the compressor wheel and basically chipped all the blades and toasted the turbo. I've got a bigger borg warner turbo on it now. Modified the downpipe with a 4" to 3" adapter and got rid of the recirculating part. Exhaust note does sound like a chevy truck lol. I have it single to a Y in the middle of the car split to bullet mufflers. Sounds like shit. Other than that, no major issues with the piping. Got most of the hot side wrapped and ceramic coated. Ive made 600 hp at 9 psi with a 71mm turbo and then an estimated 700 to 750 with the same turbo at 14 to 15 psi. Shooting for 800+ at 20 to 22 psi now.
