This Austrailian company he was talking about in the first post wouldn't be Icon would it? Cause they went out of business a long time ago.

Could anyone see the dyno numbers on that video BBS has on their site? What do they say are the averege gains for their kits? How much boost do you think you can run with the kits before detonation? Is it possible to intercool them??? For the first time ever turbo kits are starting to look more interesting than centrifugals to me

i really like the look of their turbo kits. my question is since the stock tpi 350 in my 92 was knockin and is now seized what kind of short block do u think i should build to take the boost from these trubos. i was lookin to spend around 1200-1500 on the short block. i was thinkin basically a fresh 4 bolt main 350 with some forgerd internals and forged pistons. how's that sound and keep in mind my price range. any advice would be appericated. theres a guy on e-bay sellin a zz4 short block with forgerd pistons for 1500+shipping which is just ova my budget but seems like it would make a good bottom end for this applaction.
