that price is too high to be serious.

almost 10k, plus management, built motor (which you're gonna need to take advantage of that setup), and tuning. You're lookin at 25k+ for the whole shebang, lol.

Someone's gonna do it, and I can't wait to find out who.

And while they're at it, this kind of power begs for widebody/ 13" wheels... I don't think you want to be putting down 800whp with 295's

HKS is going to be around 10k aswell...

with a 1000hp setup your motor better be built for it...that's ganna cost you a chunk of change as stated before. I see this being built for serious ballers, or for drag applications.

you guys act like nobody has gone down this route or spent this much money before. Plenty of guys have gone down the custom route and spent more $$ than this to get this done. This set up is not that much more expensive than what is currently on the market. A greddy kit is $5500. AAM fuel system is $1100 with fuel pump. 1000cc injectors are $700. That gives you a total of $7300 which is $1,690 less than this set up but would need upgraded turbos to get you into this hp level. The upgraded turbos cost about $2000 so at that point you would have gone over the MSRP of the extreme kit. If this extreme kit would have been out when I was going FI I would have given it serious consideration.

me too. Those turbos will probably flow 850-900whp worth of air (read, 1000hp, minus drivetrain losses at that high power rating is a lot lol)
edit: I'm kinda concerned, at those flow ratings and high power ratings, about the wastegate rerouting back into the exhaust. That's gonna cause some terrible turbulence in what will be an exhaust flowing massive amounts of gas under load...........i think a more angular (read: to the flow of the exhaust) rerouting might have been a better idea.

I remember him posting that he had problems at 21psi as well.


Now with the 1/2 studs and SVRT's head mod bolts the problem will subside. Those building now can just get the 1/2" studs those that have build already fuked.....read: spend another $3K to fix the problem.

Methinks that in a couple of month the Classified should be watched very closely. A lot of used FI kits will be available as people clear room in their car for this one.
