he's talkin bout the new kit that was recently listed on rx7store.net? i made a post concerning it too, but that post got butchered by one of you moderators, seems like free speech doesnt count for a lot aroud here, all i even said was that i heard that jason was a shady character.

Well first of all there was a thread about this about a month ago, that had all the details, a search would have brought this up. And I have heard nothing but good comments about Jason.

The price on that kit seems pretty high to me. Those T-28 Turbochargers only cost 350 each so that leaves 4100 in tubing?

Yeah, those are definitely NOT T-28 turbos in the Aspec kit, which is the same exact one Jason sells.

They are Garrett GT28 series and go for about $1300-1400 each.

So I'm taking it that the whole "T28 Turbo" claim is a mistype?

I was wondering because it smelled kind of fishy.

That border single turbo manifold looks like a nice design, anyone have any details or know where one could be purchased?
