The dragon v-mount kit is made by an english company called radtec and you get:
1.) Intercooler (size depends on turbo? either twins or single)
2.) Radiator
3.) Brackets
4.) Intercooler pipes and radiator hoses

well yes i did the conversion, an shipment it would still come out cheaper than buying a greddy vmount or RE kit. i dont have the skill of tig welding alum, so i have to work with what i got loloool. i would happly pay someone that could do as good a job as my K- diggy did. he said 800 was the cost for him i would be happy to shoot $1000- $1500 for the work done, and supply the parts.

I think the price is fair. I would not attempt a V mount for someone for fewer than 1,800 and I would expect to charge as much as 3k for the job.
Allot of it comes down to if you want a custom fabed look or a factory look.
In all honestly I am not very impressed with the dragon kit, well not at all frankly. The welds however are nice machine welds. What hood will you be using?

If you contact Dragon ask for a guy called Ross, he owns the company, maybe he can send you out the kit minus the radtec radiator?? Might save you some $$$

oh and the $1000 - $1500 was just a number that i threw out, this is all new to me and i was just getting feedback, and im doing the same thing that i did before i bought my 7, and that was to gather as much info as i could before i dove into the wonderfull world of the FD zone. it has helped because im on 126,895 OEM miles. lol
