This is why I am hoping we can find someone, if LMS is not a Vendor, that will sell us a kit "or" if we have a vendor that can fabricate a kit for us JoeZ you up for the challenge?? It cant be that hard....

If we cant figure this out or some way to get them as a group for much less then I am selling my car and I am out....

I think someone can fabricate a kit... if you buy the ATI procharger separately all you need is someone to make you the bracket similar/identical to the one LMS uses... and you can get a custom intercooler with custom piping and all that good stuff and run 5psi.. safely just like the LMS....

if you take a look at there kit and all it includes.......... its pretty basic

nice setup for some boost... IMO on our 250/350 .. boost is boost.. even 5psi is better then none.

^this is my thinking of this also. I have purchased upgraded kits for Turbo cars in the past for much less. Granite that was a few years back but the cost for that kit is the issue and if where not so much I am sure the demand would be there and they would still produce them!

Hey guys how many of you guys are interested in the kit? I can help you guys piece it together. If you guys are willing to figure it out. I think I have a parts list somewhere if it helps at all. I think I have pics too.

i am.. pending cost

is there anyway to turn up the boost on it to 7-8 psi.. to match the 350z kit.. without needing to crack the ecu??

ddquach, any chance youve considered going to the track?

a simple 1/4 mile run could really help me and others decided on this

well its just the list of parts we will need. You are on your own from there to price it out...

I really am not worried about track times. I am moving forward!!

I agree I dont care about track times, its not like my car was built for TRACK USE ONLY. If it boosts power 50hp Im good! on top of that I have other add-ons to aid in the power department.
