my brother has been using a kaminari hoof with a turbonetics kit for about 2 years. it should be fine but it might not be a bad idea to make so sort of guard for the hood when its raining.
and great numbers...

This SS kit as configured offers excellent spoolup characteristics as seen by the torque curve on the dyno. It should have no problems supporting about 400+WHP. When we eventually get a chance, we'll swap this entire SS kit over to our TA tC and tests its limits.
We will do extensive testing on a few different tCs before finalizing our pre-tuned F/IC map. Our goal is to have a PnP map that you can bolt on and enjoy without having to tow your car to the tuner.

i would recommend a product from a company that does a lot of R&D, as you continue to support them they will continue to bring more quality products to the market

while yes its a sweet kit, i was hoping it to be more competitively priced
i think that if it was about $400 cheaper or if they kept the offer for reduced price on the 3" exhaust for everyone who purchases the kit they would have a winner
Got to pay to play. And the components in this kit warrant the price tag. To be honest, I thought it was priced lower than it's worth. This is a "Mature" kit, but priced at entry level prices.

Our turbo manifold design is also very carbon fiber hood friendly. No more yellowing or delaminated hoods caused by hot turbine housings, wastegates or turbo manifold piping.
You will not need to deal with trying to add gold foil or other heat barrier sheets to the underside of your hood either. Those running factory hoods will not need to worry about burning the factory hood liner with our turbo manifold set-up.
