Just went back and looked at that. Wow, that can't be very efficient.
Yeah I would agree. A curved piece of piping there couldn't be that hard to have there I would think.

Looks pretty sick when installed. Little don't fit here and there in my opinion on $4,000 kit is not THAT bad when similar products cost about $8000 from other shops/brands.
Now i'm very curious about the durability this kit, how long will everything including turbos hold up!...
so everyone knows i just did an install of this kit on a 2011 and it had the same issues so its not that its not 2013 friendly. exhaust bolts and intercooler mounts were an issue but easy to overcome. i did the install on the floor in my shop, no lift, in a few evenings after work. still waiting on the new ac line and boot for the throttle body and shes done. if it were my car id cut the pipe from intercooler to throttle body and weld in a larger maf housing to eliminate the need for the "maf upgrade" which is only necessary since he put the maf in a 3inch pipe. directions with it leave something to be desired but all in all a nice kit. i used dei cool tape on some wires that i felt were pretty close to heat sources. rerouting wiring and mounting the fuse box and ecu took the most time,but im being pretty anal since its not my car
If you're referring to the exhaust side components, he mentioned they were polished by a buddy.
Nice looking kit.
$4100 sounds tempting
Well you can only put twin turbos in so many places with these twin kits so every kit is going to be similar. Yes it cost half as much because it is all cheap made parts. Obviously the thickness of the metal is pretty significant. My intercooler hard pipes are thicker then those exhaust manifolds that support the turbos. :??: The other reason his kits are down on cost is because he's using his so called name brand on3 turbos, wastegates, and BOV. Well if I wanted to, I could buy some company's make on a turbo, wastegate and BOV and also slap my name on it and call it mine. Its pretty easy, The parts he is using are mass produced by some company that are made at a cheap cost. Cheaper materials means cheaper cost for kit in the end.
I'm just a "quality" over anything type of guy. Adding twin turbo kits to these cars is a big job and not having to alter or mess with the kit at all goes a long way to me. I'm sure the car is going ride, twin turbos on a coyote is a dream come true no matter what kit. I just hope after the 35-40 hours you put in works out and lasts without giving you any trouble.
When the maf is in a poor location, shrinking the tube size speeds velocity and straightens out the air. That's also why companies put the maf in the intercooler.correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure my vortech setup uses 4" pipe and it works great
The real question is, will it crack 1000?
Or crack at 1000.......
