Turbo kit testing, what you guys wanna see?

Morgan@Midwest Diesel & Auto · Mar 19, 2015

It's a pressure manifold. It has more than enough volume to allow for ample flow to each head.

Here's a pic of the intake piping on a 2015 turbo. As it will be used for those as well.

Will there be tunes with SCT on this kit in the future??

DWhite · Mar 20, 2015

This might have been asked already but what kind of BP are you seeing with that turbo?

This kit will be available from us without turbo, or with s363, s366, s468, s472 and s475

Ebp would greatly be affected by which turbo and what housing you run.

You sure about that?

Morgan@Midwest Diesel & Auto · Mar 20, 2015

With the size piping we are using, yes. No flow is lost.

If it was a naturally aspirated manifold that would be whole different scenario.

So you changed yore mind on that.

DWhite · Mar 20, 2015

How much EBP was you seeing with the 66?

What kinda time frame would these kits be available

Chris.v · Mar 20, 2015

He's said a couple months away.

Oh I missed that lol thanks

Nope. I said its a pressure manifold.

Pressure = forced indictuon = different than vacuum flow.

In forced induction, volume, and restriction to airflow are more important than vacuum flow characteristics. Reduced volume runners that work well to keep velocity up in a naturally aspirated cylinder head will impede air volume when pressure is behind it.

Same reason we don't use the same log style pressure manifold intake on the 1000hp naturally aspirated big blocks we built as we use on the pulling engines we build.

This would run like a bag of diks on a NA gas motor.

But this doesn't.

The 66/73/.91 runs nearly 1:1 at 40psi.

Waiting on pedestals to be finished. All other parts are ready.

Why didn't you do all that in the first place? More welds and boots was never a good idea. Good work though it is a much better design.

Honestly when I started I had an idea of what it thought would work. Each time I built a style and used it on my own truck it showed that it was lacking in some area. But the main reason the intake is the way it is is because the last style would not clear s400 frame chargers. And I wanted a universal piping setup. Plus I did want to ditch all the boots for simplicity.

This kit will not be as flashy as others out there. More budget oriented. Retaining stock exhaust manifolds was part of that. It will not be for everyone. Just an option.

And thanks.

Makes sense. Good to see you continue to change your product for the better.
