Me personally i would price it a tad under the PES kit, becuase if they are the same price, you will get almost the same power out of each kit with how high the compression is on our engines. Therefor insted of having people decied do i want turbos or Supercharger. Don't have them choose have them go with YOUR kit.

It would be better to just produce the manifolds, linesand dp's. Then they can can source there own turbos and tune.

Yes i agree with cincyTT!!! But the IC piping. Well it woudldn't be that hard becuase i can weld so i would just buy the piping and make that custom. I could get all the lines myself really. The only big thing that has been holding me back has been the manifolds and downpipes.

01AFour - Me personally i would price it a tad under the PES kit
Price it just a tad under $5000 and he'll probably sell about as many kits as PES does superchargers. That's the whole point I'm trying to make here - for most of us, it's too much to justify. And if it makes basically the same power and costs the same, then where's the advantage in the turbo system, especially since you'd likely have to pull the motor to install it all. You could spend the same money, put in 8-10 hours of work, and make the same power as you can with the PES supercharger. And even with the comparatively easy install vs the turbo system, we all know how fast the PES kits are flying off the shelf. If the kit makes the same power, then to make it even worth his effort to try and market, it's gotta cost a lot less or no one will buy it either.

That's some purdy plumbing you got there. I thought the 2.8 engine bay was a little tight to begin with and you went a took it to a whole new level. Good luck in your quest to create custom code,and when you succeed it should yield good smiles per gallon. And there will be countless 2.8 owners coming to your fountain of knowledge for a drink, keep notes and take pictures.

I priced it out, and the rods can hold up to 400. They are the S4 model number rods. But the pistons are horrible. With me doing all the welding and fab. It would come out to a tad over 3 With k04's or threes i forgot which one i priced out
