Price is TBA.

Upgrades include the following so far...
*ACT Clutch
*PNP Emanage Harness
*Turbo-back 2.5" exhaust
*Color options for Tial Wastegate and BOV (Red, Blue, Silver)
*Manifold coatings (TBA in 1 week or so)

Matty-tC... Yeah I knew something was wrong when the needle stayed at 0 psi lol... We wanted to test fit everything before we shipped out the remaining parts to Random Tech in Atl, GA for the charge pipes and exhaust work. But, expect to see some oohs and aahhs in about 3 weeks.

I didn't forget. We test fitted it. We never even started the car with the turbo on. There's only two nuts holding the manifold on there to keep it from moving while we checked clearances, etc. There is also no exhaust on that pic. Talk about loud if we started it...

I like this design the most but I'd like quiet - the wastegate sound is NOT pleasing to my ears.

Draven, wastegates are not blow off valves - wastegates will open at high RPMs and stay open to let off waste boost; blow off valves open when letting off the throttle to rid the intake of harmful boost in deacceleration.
We'll see what our options are and determine if maybe both are possible. The more we do, the more it costs the end-user.
I prefer mine not dumped. Cops don't need to hear me going by, even if I am going 0-45 really quick to get into traffic. If I was on the track, the choice would be obvious. Since I am not on the track, not letting every cop in a 5 block radius know when I am full throttle would be way nice. =)

Also, I would get a sick pleasure to haul **** by someone making very little noise.

That looks awsome Joe. I can't wait to see the final product As for the wastegate, please dump it back into the exhaust to keep it quiet! I am from Nashua NH and was pulled over by the infamous Officer Murphy, for my Z24 Cavalier's Magnaflow exhaust. I plan on buying a TC after this deployment and getting a turbo kit. I like what I've seen from you guys so far. What part of southern NH is your shop located at so I can come and check the turbo kit out in person when I get back and take some leave to go home?

No, the kits are not carb legal.

On another note, I would like to change my vote and have the wastegate routed back to the down pipe.

Thanks to all of you guys!!!

Our actual private facility is in FL. I'm a mobile worker, if you will, that works in Salem, NH (pretty close to you). I do most of it out of my 3-stall garage. We're soon (after the tC turbo kit release) moving everything to FL to open a big facility. It'll have a store front, and a big warehouse with a fab shop. We have been working on Honda's for a while, we're using Scions as our Toyota stuff, and now we're working on a the custom Lexus IS300 turbo kit.

CARB is very hard to get and VERY expensive. I will try if we sell enough, but expect turbo kit costs to rise and we're trying to avoid that by all costs.

I'm looking into our wastegate options. As of right now, because of many tC owners telling me to dump it, we're probably going to dump it. As for cops, you can only hear the difference if you have it floored and the turbo is fully spooled. At that point, you'd get pulled over for reckless driving, never mind the sound. So all in all, it's still "cop friendly" as long as you drive smart and don't pull some triple digit speeds on back roads. We are however offering a Tial flange to those who want to plumb it back into the exhaust. An exhaust shop can easily pull this off for less than $100 with our supplied flange. So don't feel as though you're stuck with it dumping out.

Hope that helps. Thanks again guys,
Joe
