Yea it should be a pretty neat kit!
I've been waiting to see how much the actual cost would be vs purchasing a VMP/Roush kit used
From my initial guestimate we're looking at $4500 - $5000 once you purchase all of the parts needed.

So they are due out in march? I was going to go with a paxton/vortech but I may just delay that. I wonder if they will offer a group buy or something?
Edit:
DOB says early spring and group buy possible.
So, would someone that has never installed something like this before be able to do it? Do they give you a walk-through or would it just be like strapping on a roush kit?

at $5000 wouldnt you see more power with a paxton or vortech kit? i could see it being effective at 3-4k tops. but i could be wrong
At 5k it would be direct competition at the Roush tvs. It's probably a better kit too if what they say it's true. Larger heat exchander. They are not worried about Paxton blowers. They are going after the pd Crowd.
It would be cheaper (relative) to go with a centri if they were $5k. But, I really do like the tvs torque down low so if it is right around 4.5 to 5 that would be a nice bit of savings. By the time I picked up a centri and added the torque booster it would be a wash on the cost savings. (I think)
Hell, who knows. I've been back and forth for over a year about a SC. I've changed my mind more than any woman

so this kit is looking at being capable of 600 whp too?
Is there a link? I would like to find out more about this
The bonus of the DOB kits is it allows you to piece it all together from take off parts from the GT500's.
That way you can build the kit yourself for fairly cheap.

Double post
I'm looking forward to this kit.
I enjoy piecing together exactly what I want.

No problem.
On which one? GT450? GT550? R-Spec?
Any updates on this?
I just Recieved an email and was told this will not be ready by april.
I was Super Interested after looking into them from this thread, but the 11-14s are post production and they still haven't got a kit for them.
also from my info this kit has not been installed or tuned/ running on a car yet.
they probably could have sold a couple hundred units but aren't ready to. It's like a shark tank episode.
