Hahaha, no problems yet. He told me around 4-5 months and it's only been a little over 1 month. I don't plan on actually installing it until around Oct of 18. I got my little Paxton 2200 on E85 to get me through my race season until then. I'll start getting concerned around July though. I'd like to see it in June or perhaps July like he told me, but I'm doubting that very much.

We've never had a 3-4 week turn around. Cars here from out of town and out of state for installs. Business is sustaining just fine as it has for over a decade.


Production is not a problem. Hiring more people will not fix a parts supply issue unfortunately. We waited 4 months for maf tubing and then an unexpected move half way across country. Surely sucked but a year is far from normal. If you don't want to wait, don't buy. It'll let me catch up lol. Blowing lead times are never intentional. We'll have a complete kit delivered waiting for one part unexpectedly on back order.
If you decide to stick it out you'll find out all turbos kits are not the same. Our kit on the same car, tuner, and glide on a mustang dyno just made 190rwhp more across the board, and 250rwhp peak to peak more than a jpc race kit on the same boost level. Install and tune were done by the same two third parties each time. Only change was putting on our kit.

You could've welded on another flange or something instead of writing that, hahaha! It's all good, I knew it'd be a bit of a wait. It's not a problem until it's a problem lol!

I'll hopefully find out before too long, she's still down in Texas.
The drive back should be a blast. But she's going from stock/tune to turbo and supporting mods for the turbo... fuel, opgs, 3.31s. . We'll see what a practically stock 14.5/late coyote engine can reasonably make with a bit of boost, hopefully without venting it.

3 of the 5 month wait is now behind me for my CPR kit, getting pumped up! I actually have a few people in line locally to buy my current centri kit, just hopefully they can wait until July so I don't have to mess with selling the Blower kit on-line, and dealing with all the headaches.

I'm going to keep my faith until we pass the time Dustin and I discussed before the purchase, hahaha! I am, however needing it within the timeline discussed because the local sale of my Paxton pretty much depends on it. But until that time lapses, I'm a happy camper knowing I'll be (turboe'd up) by the end of summer.

The feeling you get after making a test hit will make up for the delay.
Hang in there fellas

I had Dustin do the install on mine. He recommended the E-boost 2 controller. I know the turbo is a Borg Warner unit, unsure on size. 76mm maybe?

He brought the car to me on Tuesday, which happened to be his birthday(but don't let that get out, it will ruin his perfectly crafted asshole reputation). Well worth the wait. Car is a monster and feels and sounds amazing. I want to say it made 885 and over 800 torque with room to go but I had him turn it down to about 830 and 790. That along with a 6 speed is insane.
