It may be the truth, but you making a mockery of it makes you look like a d!ck.

 

I kid, I kid.

 

Oh trust me I've done my homework on all the other things I'm going to be buying, racked up to about 2k over the price of the turbo without install.
It's really not that much, but I'm human a price increase makes me cringe

 

i felt like that was one of the good things about this kit with such a great price with good parts but now it is getting near alot of TT and aps kit so it just really opens the door for other options. no doubt there going to sell still but i think they had the single turbo game on lock with this pricing and i dont think they would be loosing much but we all know people get greedy and always want to make a buck and as a consumer we always want a deal. i will be saving now for the aps or greddy kit

 

Amen, brother. I have only seen too many times how some companies may get smart and eventually "outsmarting themselves".

 

My price range was under $5k for the turbo kit because then the supporting mods(guages, clutch, etc.) would take it pretty high but now that this went up, I see sales plumeting. The only thing that took me from APS or a TT was the price. So I don't see myself going FI now. I'll just use that money to help pay the car off and get an STI or something. Keep an eye out for some DEFI BF guages and guage controller I may be selling, won't need them if the price goes that high. And it isn't just a couple hundred. Looks closer to a grand.

 

You guys may have things a bit wrong. In case you guys didn't know the kit is available now from vendors for aorund $4300. However the current MSRP from Turbonetics for this kit is $5596. They are increasing that to $5995. A difference of $400. Tack that on to current street price and the new cost is $4700. Just cause the MSRP goes up doesn't mean street price is going to be that. One more time:

Current MSRP Vendor Price
$5595 $4300

New MSRP New Vendor Price
$5995 $4700

 

Add on about $300 and you got the same plus the oil pan, more comprehensive fuel system, watercooled turbo, etc (APS ST). Try to do that with turbonetics. APS oil pan by itself cost 300-400 and eliminates a need for external cooler unless you autocross like crazy (these fins are said to have very good heat dissipation). I greatly appreciate all the help l got from you when I was asking you about the TN kit, so please do not take this personaly, but the only thing that had me chosing the TN over APS kits was a better value, now that they are in same price range, I am going w/APS.

 

Yep, dont forget they include all that smoke free of charge.

 

You won't be disappointed with the APS.

 

That's strange. I was under an impression that the smoking is a result of faulty install, not the kit defect per se.

 

I thought the onld MSP was around $4995 for some reason. $400 is not too much of a difference. I apolagize for assuming otherwise. I should have researched more,but I was basing everything on $4300 and then I saw $5995 and it just forced a response lol.

 

lol oh i didnt know you had the aps kit too? you have two Z's? nice reply? one more post for ya huh? i dont understand why people bash something they dont have. Im glad your TN kit is good for you hey you mind letting me have 400 bucks i would get the TN kit if you put up that 400 dollor price change so i could be just like you.

 

I can hear Peter from APS lauging all the way back from Australia...

 

It is...and it's only on VERY few Twin Turbo kits...not single turbo kits. Don't mind Taurran, he's an idiot.

 

Nope. I know of one that smoked, was sent back, re-installed by a dealer, and is still smoking.

 

In taurrans defense there have been at least 3 smoking APS ST kits that have posted about it...

 

Play nice...Please.

 

I see...was not aware..he still bags a rediculous amount on APS...

 

I'll work on it...
