FMIC Kit for S13, KA-T mani and downpipe.what would cost be?
The KA motor would probably be a 1 off deal as its not the most common setup to do. Their looking to produce kits for mass production. But like i told the others if you want something i can do a 1 off. Price varies so much you'd need to give me details of manifold setup, FMIC setup, etc..
-
there is a somewhat market for it but limited number of producers. but in number ka-t well never catch sr20's, i know what you were looking for just thought id see.
not as interested in mani and dp allready got them. but for sure will be over for fmic setup this spring. my setup so far is top mount mani, want to do 24x12x3 intercooler and 3 inch pipes. and will also need a intake system

Modular 4.6's need some help in the turbo world

Modular 4.6 = every mustang post 95

STi?

no one will take me seriously, but the 5e series engine from toyota has a MASSIVE base of customers looking for aftermarket support.
There isn't any support at all for tercels and paseos beyond 80's style body kits... I'd be willing to donate my car for research purposes if i got a cut rate on the resultant turbo goodies. A mass produced equal length turbo manifold would be a first for the 5e-fe and 5e-fhe guys everywhere. And since it seems like everyone that owns paseos and tercels is pretty short on money 99% of the time, getting everything needed for turbo purposes in one kit is usually the only route people will take. Right now the only shop that's doing ANYTHING for these cars is in Miami, and that's a long ass drive from here...
If you want a taste of the base of people that would be interested in this stuff, you can check out http://board.tercelonline.com and let the people on there know what your plans are. I'm sure you'll spike some interest.

What everyone needs to realize here is i myself can do 1 off kits, i dont have a problem w/ that but who i am working w/ on this is looking for mass productions kits and we will be doing top notch stuff. So that means cheap kits and Ebay parts are not inline here. W will be doing 100% stainless manifolds, and all stainless piping.

aren't those SVT motors?any 4.6L Ford motor (as well as the 5.4L and the 6.8L V10) is 'modular')
SOHC 2V, DOHC 4v, and the new 3v includedWish I had a supercoupe for ya to build on. I know there's getting to be more demand for a turbo setup for those (although probably not enough to get a large manufacturer interested).

Seriously tufte if you were to create an easier and cheaper way for modular 4.6ers to turbo their cars you could make a mint. Right now a kit with everything needed costs around 6-8 grand minimum, while people who have welding and fabbing skills have custom fabbed similar kits for close to 2500. Guarantee you that if you made it a more user friendly option like most of the current supercharger kits out on the market and in the same price range...you'd make a killing.

A nice quality 4 cyl kit can easlily get up in the $4-5k range. Top quality parts aren't cheap especially when you start using SS and alum. Gotta remember i gotta get paid for my time to.
But for right now we're looking for mass production kits. I'll do some research into the 4.6 stuff and think about it.

-
