If only they offered them for our cars.
At that price, I would buy one in a minute!

Ive been watching that kit develop for a while now. If it wasnt by the HOT ROD STORE I would smile more. I have a bad taste in my mouth for those people. Their customer service doesnt seem very great if you ask me. I was buying my boost controller through them and granted there were some supply problems but they never call, they never give you a good answer and TWICE this guy said he was going to fax me something and never did. Just a sour taste for them.

It used to be owned by Mike Murillo, or at least Murillo's old company was swallowed by these guys. Same building, phone number , for a while at least. Texas Jam racing. Probably heard of it.

I heard Mike has his own new place now though.

The kit DOES look good. Its nearly a DIY project though. When they were building it, I kept up and those headers are just shorty headers turned around. Not hard to build some pipes to bolt up to them. I wouldnt have used the 2 bolt falnges they did either.

Course, finding a set of headers to do that on an f-body would be a little more difficult. Would be cool though.

Texas Jam is gone. I believe his new on line setup is mike murillo racing. I would kind of steer clear of the hotrod store. They are very ford biased and hard to find anyone intelligent there.
