Kit will include
Custom el manifold similar to the turbo toyotas manifold
3 inch down pipe
Stainless steel boost pipes
Tial bov (kit will be a blow through maf setup)
Tial wg (customers choice in spring)
aem fic and harness will be a option
Custom vacuum block with all fittings
all oil feed and return lines
vacuum line will be included
turbo will be customers choice if no preference will be a garret t3o4e ar is customer choice
garret cored intercooler standard
and all hardware to put kit on

mani and dp will be left raw an option for coating will be avalible

I will run my own product. post track times and dyno numbers.
i am just wondering if this will be sellable
so lets see a few hands of interest



and any imput is welcome

price will be 3000-5000 depending on options and managment


I will also install and tune kits for free in the denver area

Get an aftermarket exhaust going as well. Catback or S-Pipe Back would be nice. We have zero viable options for that, other than CXR (all the other exhausts are axlebacks mostly). Some people also don't have good welders/shops around them...

EDIT: Good luck with the turbo kit. I'm not interested since I'm already making mine, but I think it'll be a good idea for people to have more options. Descendant's kit is one of the best for those plug-n-play guys and makes decent power, but there's all those arguments about internal wg, bypass valve and stock airbox (to me, there is nothing wrong with that, but people don't know what they're talking about and just whine cause they want the awesome sound of a bov, the noise of an external wg, etc). The CXR kit is cheap, and I don't even consider it a kit, but it's still out there. Ancla's kit doesn't even have management and costs a bundle. I don't think there are any other kits I missed. So basically, the only kit that isn't available is one that is made to make power for those "hardcore" people, so I think you should go for that (and judging by your original post, it looks like you're going for it)

There's actually multiple RS6's in the area. There's one for sale at the toyota dealership on broadway and belleview. I saw an RS6 with a spoiler and rims in the green mountain area with temp tags about 2 months ago. I've had mine since May. My car broker @ autotrek on said it was one of the only MT ones left.

If I wasn't so far into my own CXR/custom build, I'd be very interested. It sounds very promising. Good luck with it Cory.
