Just looking into these! Anyone ever heard of anything good or bad from these guys? $2400, seems to good to be true. Then again, they must be trying to get rid of these kits.

There's a discussion about these in another thread. Seems to be pretty good for the money!

Corral.net has lots of 5.0 guys running the on3 kit putting out over 400hp to the tires with STOCK engines... Haven't heard anything bad about the kit save for some slight fitment issues on some occasions but nothing bad at all. You'll have fitment issues in the very best turbo kits (or superchargers for that matter) anyways

As long as you get one of the newer mild steel kits, I don't see too many problems. I'm still going to use B&G because of the warranty, and I want an aluminum cold side instead of stainless.

Shouldn't be a problem. Lots of guys going over 400 to the wheels with a bone stock engine and the on3 kit.

These guys are not to far from where i live. theres a few 5.0's around with this kit and seems to be pretty legit. im thinking the reason its so cheap is they dont have that 'Flashy' look to them. but i have also looked into these

The only bad thing I have heard was complaints about the hot side esp the header flanges cracking over time, and like mentioned above...make sure you get the mild steel kits and for a little more $$$ upgrade to the master power turbo, the entry level chinese version is crappy. Some hard core guys on the corral do not like the wastegate and blowoff valve placement, but there are guys in the 8"s with that system.

IMO, I'd save a little more for a B&G system

The more I read about them, it seems like they have most of their issues worked out.

What about the swaybar part, have they found a fix for that?

IF you happen to run into a sway bar issue - you can run different length end links and that will fix it

From where should I get the right end links to fix?

Anywhere.... your local parts store should carry different length endlinks.

Seems like you could even fabricate end links from threaded rod.
