Cool, with that price and those numbers deff. watching!!!

 

I just got back from driving the 1st gen xB, I must say the B drives awesome. The car makes more than enough power to get in and out of traffic nicely.

The kit would def allow you to make more power on a 5 speed over a auto. I would be scared to make much more power on a stock auto because of the sluggish shifting.

 

Gen 1 xB owners your time is coming!! I drove the xB1-t today and was pleasantly surprised!!

Can't wait to get this new info posted up!

 

Damn! Now this means I have to build that short-block. Sigh, it's a good pressure.

 

Fitment on an xa?

 

Yes, we have one scheduled for next week...from my research it should be exactly the same.

watchin this

 

One quick thing to bring up, it doesn't look to be truly "bolt-on" with that downpipe. Isn't the stock exhaust one piece from where it bolts to the header to the axle-back fitting? Looks like you need to chop the stock pipe to get this on, and not too many people weld exhausts at their house. Might want to mention that before people order, thinking this is a one weekend project only to find out they need to get to the shop for a successful install. Do you guys provide the mating flange or does the stock one get re-used after cutting?

 

Any updates? Sounds like this project hit a wall...

 

The 2K price point is more than likely the issue. Hard to deliver a complete kit for that amount. Especially with all the piping, engine management and good turbo with intercooler.

Keep watching though, Rob will come-up with something.

Awesome!

this makes me want another xB1...

I'm assuming this is tuned on an FIC?

 

Same question, how is the automatic tuned?

 

The Tuner Friendly turbo kit come with No FIC or Fuel system. Its for customers that what to pick there own Electronics and Fuel System. Perfect race applications.

"The dnyo sheets were with FIC and Injectors."

 

Yes, tuned at 5-6psi with PNP AEM FiC.

 

not a bad price at all for those parts.

However like I said in the begining, it would not be a 100% ready to go plug and play kit for 2k.

So add the AEM/FIC with harness and a set of R/C or precision injectors and your at 3,000.00 with incindentals still needed.

Also intercooler? thats another 350.00 to 800.00 depending on brand. so now were at close to 4k

Rob, from the exhaust manifold all the way out looks great. But that cheap hose and worm gears and black pipe look like you went, oh **** need to cut down on the cost. It almost looks like two turbo kits put togeather. A killer back half but a less than pleasing front half. I.M.O

I think this kit will have it's challanges meeting customer needs and ease of use.

I have to agree with Xbgod exhaust manifold looks great, but the cheap hoses with the black pipe make it look tacky.

But Rob I have to congratulate you on the cleanest exhaust manifold setup with TIAL. I have ever seen so far in all the years I have seen turbos on xb's.

 

You may want to mention, judging by the downpipe length that the stock exhaust will need to get cut pre-cat. I just went through this on my own setup, it can be a bit of a PITA. What flange are you using, 3-bolt flat gasket? Big thanks for including the flex pipe, makes alignment MUCH easier, wish I had done that on mine vs. spot weld, fit, cut, reweld, fit, etc.

xBG, not sure an intercooler is needed @ stock boost, especially w/ FIC and injector upgrade as long as the tune is sufficient, and if boost is dialed up you're looking at a built short block to handle it. Greddy I/C kit could probably be adapted fairly easy to fit this setup if needed.

 

Yes if you keep the boost like a stock Greddy kit you'll be good. But this kit has a T3T4 turbo and everything about it's designe from the exhaust manifold out was designed for race. The kit has great potential. The bottom line is most people that have a xb want a bolt on ready to go kit, with everything included ready to go. It has been my experience with this crowd that this kit will be hard to move due to no engine management for the plug and play guy. Which is what 98% of this crowd is.
