Well jegs called today, and after being assured everything will be taken care of things seem to have backfired. They are completely out of stock, and the only leftover boxes they have are the header assembly. So now they have to go to the manufactor only they cannot get a hold of them. Seems like a game of cat and mouse, I may end up sending everything back to jegs.

Thanks for this thread. I was considering this kit for my h/c/I set-up, but I'm just gonna get a vortech. And I'll be able to run my longtube and Prochamber into spintech super pro streets set-up I just bought

B&G makes a great kit (I actually know where there's a used one for sale right now ), but it's priced accordingly. It may as well be as unatainable as an HP Kit, or a Hellion for most. People look at the On3 kit because it's reasonably priced. Only after the fact do they finally realize....you get what you pay for.

Yea it's crazy, a B&G kit is at LEAST twice as much. I don't know where these other turbo kit manufactures get off, how can you justify a higher asking price for a turbo kit than an equivalent centrifugal supercharger kit? A turbo kit is literally just a bunch of tubing that sells for pennies by the foot. The only expensive parts are the turbo, wastegate, and the boost controller. There's no extensive bracketry, pullies, gear drives, FMU, etc. The funny thing is, a base B&G kit doesn't even come with everything you need to run the car- no Y pipe to fit a standard mid pipe.

Eh, I'll get off my soap box. /rant

I was referring to the turbo companies that aren't On3.
