I am VERY interested in this setup. I just sold my SMIC, and now is the perfect time to switch out for a V-Mount. I need to buy one before DGRR, so hopefully your kit will be ready by then... since you'll be there, you could even show the setup to other potential customers (I even have the 99 spec bumper ).

As posted in the original thread:
And from earlier in this thread:
So as you can see, we're trying to go ALL out with this; leaving NO room for improvement 
Given that'll be in April, I sure hope so! lol. I'm trying to release the V-mount hopefully in January...
I'll be there? Really? Thanks for letting me know that! LOL. I WISH I could, but as I told Phil, I'll be overseas from the last week of March to the last week of April. So unless something changes, I won't be able to attend 
I WOULD like to attend as an official vendor next year, both @ DGRR & Sevenstock!

PS: Now leave us alone to finish the kit!
The kit will come with a custom radiator and the base price will really depend on a few different factors...so it's really hard to give just a base price like you're asking. But it would be my guess that the base price will be anywhere from $2300 to 2700 with ducting. Also the battery relocation wouldn't be to the bins, it would be to the rear hatch area, which should clear up your problem. In either case, you'll have the option to either relocate the battery or use a smaller one in the engine bay.

The options we have in the works thus far are as follows:
-A/C relocation kit
-Power steering cooler upgrade (can not retain the stock cooling loop)
- Dual oil cooler kit (also sold separately)
-Battery box (uses Hawker PC680 battery)
-Battery relocation kit
The battery relocation kit may not be available when the V-mount is complete, but should be available shortly after.
We were playing around with the idea of adding the option of louvers, and a cold air intake box.

I can't wait to see the finished product, I've been waiting for a completely ducted kit to come out for awhile...

Even if it is cheaper/same price as an HKS V-Mount. It comes with a radiator while HKS's does not. I believe. HKS does come with a different elbow though and battery relocation.

Sorry to break it to ya big man, but I wasn't there last year either. Sadly, I have NEVER been able to make it to a DGRR to date...timing was always off (for me). I did, however, co-sponsor the event (from afar LOL) and I believe Phil distributed my business cards as well. But I myself couldn't make it.
In any case, I would still have the opportunity to show the finished product to other potential buyers

Yep you're right; HKS only comes w/ an IC core. And yes they have their own elbow that would only mate w/ the OEM IC, not other aftermarket ICs (other than their own), and it does NOT allow you to retain the A/C IIRC. It's a "kit," but a FAR cry from what we see as "complete," that's for sure.

Ah ok. Na I couldn't go that weekend, but Rich & Ihor were passing thru, and I insisted they crash @ my place instead of going to a No-Tell Motel 
Oh and I see you're in Poughkeepsie, NY. I once drove ALL THE WAY up from NoVa (near DC) to Poughkeepsie to buy a car and drive it back down. The guys @ the dealership thought I was *completely* nuts LOL.

i almost went with HKS when i ordered the vmount from ramy... but after closer study, HKS one has no AC, and pain in the *** wire bundle relocation turned me away. 2700 for Vmount kit with radiator is a steal.
Ramy, do u think its possible to order a custom IC after you guys starts producing this? just the IC and maybe IC piping only...for like the size of Rotary extreme's monster vmount for stock twins...

yes, other than battery relocation HKS Vmount also requires that whole fuse box and wires next to the battery to be relocated as well...
