Lately i have been working on a twin turbo kit for s10 350 they will be completed in by mid october! i will be selling twin turbo headers by themselves (most important part to a turbo setup) or you can buy a complete kit with oil lines and fittings, t4 turbos, bolts, gaskets, blow off valve, downpipe, intercooler, pipes, fittings, and external wastegates. i will have the exact prices soon!! aproxx $2500-$3500 for TT kits $450 for the headers. also working on a more affordable single turbo kit for stock blocks or street engines under 550 hp.

Are these kits for carburated vehicles or Fi? Mine is carburated and i am interested in the new vortec t-trim centrifugal blower for carburated vehicles. But if you are gonna have these kits ready then i might want one...Can you send pics and exact specs of the kit to me in a private message?

I dont have the kits completed yet the headers are still being designed to fit without problems. I make a pair but then i tried to get at the spark plugs and you ge the idea. So i will have the pics in about 2 weeks when i get the next set of headers in there final form. The kits will be for efi and carbed but i cant include the piped from the intercooler to the intake because of all the diffrent carb heights due to diffrent intakes and efi types

I talked to some friends of mine that do turbos on just about anything you want and they said that they could not even build a kit for less than $3500. And they buy all their stuff in bulk. They said that even if they were to do one with no labor charges that they could not even build it for less than $3000 . How are you doing yours so cheap?

I was just curious because they make their own headers and get their turbos at a discount too, and they still cant do it that cheap. Hell no i dont want you to raise the price, especially if i am gonna buy one. They asked me if i would ask you just to be sure you were\'nt using crappy parts. But i dont know yet so......But i do understand that its you hobby and you not trying to make money like them.

School just started and im trying to get as much done with my truck before it gets to cold(no garage). Once i get done with the chop top and body i will get it painted then finish making the headers. In about mid october.

hey Puzzle, lay off of S10dragtruck. Let him talk all he want about the turbo kit and if he cant make what he promises so what. I my self am a little sceptical of the kit with wht he say it includes and quality of work because i am coming from alot of exspirence with turbos because i used to be into the whole import seens and still own an mr2 turbo, i am not sceptical because he is only 16, but because i know the complications and exspenses of the systems. So leave him alone about building a kit. If he can do it more power to him.
And S10dragtruck im not tryin to be an a$$ but you have dug your self a pretty big hole here i hope you can get your self out. And good luck with building the kit if you get it done for as cheap as you say you can thats amazing.

Ok i know i dint meet my deadline but I promise i will be making them once the temps get above 40*http://www.s10v8.com/images/smilies/icon_frown.gif and the snow melts. I bought a plasma cutter so now i can cut the flanges out faster and better. also i changed my design to a simpler and hopeully more powerfull design because the longer and more equal primaries also i wont have a problem with the plugs now. This is the design im going to be using for my next pair. <a href="http://www.y-t-g.com/turbomonte.html" target="_blank" target="_new">http://www.y-t-g.com/turbomonte.html</a>

I started this week on the s10 turbo kits i put my cab on the unfinished frame. i put the mockup engine in and will start making the headers tomorow. The first pair will be done by sunday at the latest. They will be equal length priamaries.
Are any of you guys intrested in buying the first pair for $400 they will be have 1 5/8\" primaries. Would you want t3 or t4 flanges.
