I'm only interested in running a (realistic street) 1bar of boost and want 425hp. I want it to be as smooth as an RX8 but HP of a supercharged Z06. The Apexi RX6 is nice but insanely priced and tops out at 385hp anyhow.
A .86 will spool quicker AND achieve full boost sooner, but won't make as much power up top as the .96.



The TO4S would most likely be your best bet for the power you want and the streetability factor. You could do the .86 or .96 and be very happy.

I don't have any particular close date.. Maybe 2 weeks from now? Let's say.. 12 April.



The wastegates for these are (forgot to mention) a replica HKS. We also offer TIAL 35mm gates, but not with these kits, as the TIAL gates are more expensive. The replica HKS are awesome. We put 2 of them on different singles and have nothing bad to report. They hold boost all the way down to 7psi (farthest weve tested) and hold steady up at 18+. I know how some people are about knockoffs... so, if for some reason you don't trust me, I'll add the TIAL for as cheap as I can.

The TIAL gates 38/40MM will be ~200.00. Still 2200.00 for a single isn't bad. I'm going to personally install one of the HKS copycat gates on my car this week and give it hell.. Just to prove the quality. I set it right beside a HKS gate and you couldn't tell the difference (Other than the HKS print) .. I'd almost think HKS actually made it LOL.



I don't have an HKS account.. Quite frankly they are too overpriced for what I can get out of a smaller, cheaper gate.. HOWEVER, I'll get some prices for you.

Yes. It's for a 3rd gen. We are hoping to make kits for the 2nd gen in the upcoming month or so.





Too bad noone here drives V-8s... You should see our twin turbo Firebird... 958hp.
