Because I have the old car (shell only). It wasn't wrecked or anything, It was just parted out.

This TT kit used to be mine, but I am out of the Military and in school full time, which is the SOLE reason for me selling the whole project to Scott, who is now parting everything out. The Garrett dual ceramic ball-bearing GT2871R Turbos have very-very-very (very) low mileage on them. The kit works and has been tested by Ryan aka SC400TT. GLWTS Scott- It's sad to see it being sold at such a cheap price, but It'll be exciting to see it up and running again when someone steps up their game and builds a supercar smashing Lexus!!! [Who will it be?]
...Personally, I think you should bolt this TT kit up to YOUR engine Scott, and run the Whipple Supercharger at the same time...
 Would that be considered Twin, or Triple-Charged?
It would be over-the-top-ridiculously-insane is all I know!

Scott, GLWS.
Lord knows, if it wasn't for smog, I'd jump all over this, especially at this price. Too bad Cali isn't car mod friendly

I can't believe this! It's only a dollar away from being in the 3k range!
It will almost be sad to see it go for such a cheap price considering the $$$ invested,
and all the quality components... Two Garrett GT2871R ceramic dual ball bearing turbos w/two Garrett internal wastegates, TiAL 44mm Blowoff valve, custom manifolds, up pipes, Y pipe, water pipes, ducting, custom Bell intercooler, etc etc etc etc etc etc... I don't even want to tally the actual costs, and labor involved... Just ask SC400TT

A complete 4 banger Honda turbo kit is already in the $3K range. This is a 8 banger, so it's super cheap.

The amount invested was far, far more. I can't believe this is going for so low. The turbos are basically new, they were run for a few hundred miles. In fact, the whole set up was only run for a few hundred miles. This was only due to the fact that I was swapping in a built motor, and had not decided to go stand alone or keep the piggy back ECU. I did not want to waste money installing the piggy back when I was almost positive I was going to switch to a stand alone.
The Bell FMIC is custom made by Bell for me. The plumbing was all custom fabricated, and you can expect to pay a fabricator approximately $5,000 to $6,000 to fabricate up a custom 1-off set up.
Plus, it all works. I ran it at 8 lbs of boost and it screamed. Second gear pulled hard. I had to watch it though because I was running off the stock ECU and MAF.
It is a total steal at the current selling price. Also, "IT BOLTS RIGHT UP TO THE CAR". This is a huge plus.
Somebody buy this thing already!!
