Outstanding...
This seems like the Turbo for me and my Project "Cosmo" Kramer
I understand it spools up nicely and full boost is instantly available anywhere after 3000 RPM...
So, Two more important questions.
1)Does this turbo lose efficiency/output at redline? (7500rpm)
2) What is THE Lowest Price anybody has found it, and where? In a previous thread RPM said to deal with A-spec.., but now they are a sponser, so WTF?
All I need is the Turbo as I am having the exhaust manifold made.
Thanks!

The goal is to have as much efficiency in the usuable powerband to obtain as much HP throughout.

although last time i talked to him, you may need to get manifolds from a-spec. i dont have to for some reason that i was already in his files before he cut a deal here in the USA...?

in aust. money it was 210 shipping and 60 duty.
sooooo....it was about 125. i say shipping, because that is just the way i looked at it. it "cost" me 125 to "ship it". if you would like to get technical....yes they are seperate, but it all comes out of your pocket.

Yeah definitely watch out for those damn customs charges. I bought a GT3540, Haltech, and large (very) FMIC from Tim @ RPM. His shipping charges were like $200. I thought that was it...but then THREE DAMN MONTHS after I got the stuff I get a bill from the freight company for ANOTHER $200 for duties and handling/processing fees! SUCKS!!!!!

200 would be about right at 3.5%.
i know the turbo (entire kit) and haltech together for me was quoted around a little under 3500 us. and 3.5% of that is $122.
