If I didnt work in the Industry I would be close to the 5500-6000 range depending.

 

ahh.......um.........need an assistant....

 

$2500 with internals + turbo + labor costs? I don't think so Unless you aren't counting incidentals, like a new clutch for one....

With my 311whp SC install, I can tell you one thing - you will really need that limited slip diff Your biggest enemy at 300+whp is traction.

 

^^^ No internals on this build as of this stage in the build. Labor all free from Industry friends and parts most of them free or very very discounted rate. The ONLY parts full price was paid on were the Dezod parts and thats because I know they are worth every last red cent.

 

I agree with ya on the dezod part, but you should *probably* not say "Hey, I'm doing this for under $2500" because you'll get a lot of people asking "How do *I* do it for that price?"

Especially when you know the answer is, "YOU don't"

 

Nice to have friends in all the right places!!

 

Friends dont always get you where you need to be....but they sure as hell help.

 

I am a little worried my Turbo arrived and has some shaft play. I will have to run it by my shop and check if its something to be worried about.... Oh no the problems start now j/k

 

Man that sucks...hopefully it wont be an issue.........your lady is not in the background saying..."KARMA" is she?

 

I agree completly and when done I will post a list of all parts and totals if you were to buy them at street price. This will show a lot of guys considering this route just to save Money, That they would be better off looking into a kit from on of the fine manufactures of PNP kits we have avaliable to us.

 

No and lukly my shop thinks things will tighten up once oil is applied to the mix. I just thought there was a little to much play in the unit...but they assured me everything is ok.

 

Hey If you don't mind me asking, where do you work at? Just curious...

Good luck with the install. I've installed a Dezod kit and a ZPI kit myself; it's always a fun and exciting learning experience installing a turbo.

 

I am unable to tell you where I work but the industry insiders that know me on this site will vouch for me as to working in the industry.

Thanks the build should only be half of the fun.

 

Aw that's cool...Only reason I asked is because I work in the industry also...always nice to meet new contacts.

 

If thats the case Pm me and we can chat.

 

Update: My girl and I have just added to our Toyota family with a new WHITE Yaris Lb 5spd. This project just got bumped down about one to two months... the new baby needs some shoes and springs BAD!

 

God lord man.... You must be rolling in the dough.. to have that many cars and still be able to mod them.. Keep us updated when you can...

 

I used to work at a Toyota dealer so when I was making good money I saved it...and now its time to blow it.

 

Oh the good old days.

I'll be like that again in the Spring. Man it's fun. I'm saving up though. Lookin to pick up a new Skyline when they come out

 

Joe any updates on that A/R post I started?
