That kit looks very perty, but I wish it came with the intercooler without extra money. The ceramic coating option is very sweet cuz I'd like to keep my intake piping bling bling for show [img]smile.gif[/img] I'll keep an eye on the availability of the f-body kit for sure! Although I already have a Carsound Cat AND PCM Programming... I wonder if they'd give me a discount? Ya right!

[AllTheGoodNamesAreGone]

there are alot of places that do ceramic coatings localy now.. look for places that do powder coating.. more the likley they do ceramic too..

and if that dosent work out you can send your stuff out to jethot..

their kit looks ok.. promising if anything.. I want to see how it turns out when its acctualy sold and on the road..

as far as or engines beaing similar.. yes.. funamentaly the motors themselfs are nearly identical..

but.. when you design a turbo kit.. the PITA is piping and packaging.. thats what takes the longest and is the hardest dam part of any FI setup.. ever seen how a fwd 3.8 is mounted?? yeah.. its is in no way shape or form close to ours.. hell.. its will be a compleatly different kit.. altogether.. if it took then this long ot make that kit.. it will probably take a while for the f-body kit.. to components may be similar however they might as well be starting from scrath..

and as far as the intense kit.. that was designed mainly for their racecar i belive.. and the hardcore gtp peeps..

Cp </font>[/QUOTE]The L36 in those cars is pretty close, notice how I said some minor differences. So please, don't be gay and tell me to stop posting. I am just trying to help everyone out and show what else is out there. So if you can't respect that, then you're pretty messed up. </font>[/QUOTE]MINOR DIFFERENCES?

Maybe you can just buy that kit and make the minor modifications since its a similar engine. There's more in common between a v6 Fbody kit and an ls1 fbody kit than with that Grand Prix kit. You clearly know nothing about designing a Turbo setup. This kit has been posted before, hopefully it will pan out for the Fbody as well.

Oh, and I am pretty messed up actually.

In that GRAND PRIX kits defense it does include injectors and PCM tune, T-Bolt clamps, stainless piping, and plugs, all nice extras. Definately a good deal if you have a Grand Prix.

See, it pays to have a 99 GPGT & an 85 Firebird w/a 95 3800 :cool:
I need a loan somebody............

NO he's right the FWD 3.8 is totally different when it comes to building a turbo kit. The exhaust is routed way different and the throttle body sits on the opposite side of the engine. Routing pipes from a FWD 3.8 and an Fbody 3.8 would in no way be similiar. Not to mention intercooler mounting etc.....

[Mighty Thor]

It would be interesting to see what their design on V6 F-body would look like.

I wonder how they will mount the IC.
