Love the cutout P logo in the oil dipstick tube, very nice touch. Guess I'll have to get a tC if I want this kit sine sadly the market is apparently not there of the xA / xB, unless you guys are doing something in secret. I'll volunteer my xB for fit check if you are.

How about on the red chargepiping? Is it the same but with different colored text?
The red and black will use the same badge. I looks great on the red as well as the black piping. Here's the the same badge on our TA tC:

Thanks for the positive remark. We went to great lengths to build this turbo kit just so that we can carry over our turbo manifold design from our race car into a production kit. As far as the xA and xB is concern, unfortunately, we will not be developing any performance parts for it in the near future. After we release this turbo kit for the tC 5M/T, we will focus our efforts on developing the tC A/T version and possibly the xB2.

It might be time for you to upgrade to another model--i know it's hard to let go of a car you put so much time and money into, but having everything custom made one-off can get very expensive very quickly; case in point, our TA tC.

BHAHAA!! Well said Carbon...well said.

It is absolutely ridiculous (in a good way), the amount of detail that is going into the PTuning kit. The kit already separates itself from all others....but it's the little "Amenities" like the Dip Stick, that just truly exceeds everything imaginable in a production kit.

Sorry to say, but the rest of the kit producers are just going to have to step their game up. And they got a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNGGGG way to go.

This kit has officially reached "BALLER" Status.

Yeah, this kit actually makes me want to get a tC. Maybe find a high mileage one since once I get a hold of it the stock engine will be pulled anyway, or possibly something with a salvage title.

Just noticed the cutout in the manifold too, that's just crazy.

damn!!! I NEED this kit. I am really interested in knowing the costs for upgrades since this is a modular kit. What I am saying is, how much would it cost to, lets say, upgrade to the intercooler/radiator setup in the future RS kit, including upgrading to 3" intercooler piping, new radiator support bracket/mount, etc. I want a kit from you period. No matter how I try and piece ideas together, it still doesn't compare to your kit. I either need to buy yours, or take some classes and build one. I would like to do the second, but I don't want to wait lol.

It's getting close!!

I saw a charge from earlier this month for the s-back exhaust I got plus the down payment for the kit. Then I get a call today from them to verfiy the IC piping I want.

He says they hope to be shipping out at the end of next week! Unfortunately, I won't be in town when they're delivered.

Update: Here's the final production downpipe.


The kit will come pre-assembled with the turbo manifold, turbo, v-band flange, wastegate, dumptube, oil inlet fittings, oil return fittings, bolts & nord-lock washers--all pretorqued. We've taken the task of putting together the main assembly so the kit will be very easy to install and reducing chances of exhaust leaks and installation error.


We'll post more pics of the red and black intercooler piping next week.
