You know I just read through that and seems to be a legit American company with no chinese crap. I would give it a shot if they are willing to stand behind it.

i read up on this kit alot some dude used this kit on a notch he had fitment isues but it all worked out he put down 460 rwhp and 625 tq

alot of people say bad things about his kit but they havent had any exp with it ....they asked the dude with the notch if he could go back in time would he get a different kit he said if there is no other isue like rusting pipes (thats what every 1 says about his kit ...that it rusts) he said no he would keep it....


he got the kit for 1500 his fit ment isue was with the sway bar but the kit maker said he is working on it and is sending a new part the clears it

so for that price it think it worth some headache i might give it a shot ...as soon as i see some 1 that used this kit on a 99 cobra

ALL the kits will make power, the problem with them is that they do not last. And the problem is not rust, the problem is cracking of the tubes and welds.

any idea on how long they last ....i mean u can always replace those minor parts right?



ive also read up on this kid that had this kit on his 2v made 495 hp at 5 psi but blew the motor for some reason not because of the kit though....then he got a fully forged block and is runing 18psi and he is at 647 whp and 760 tq ...he is on svtperformance i think

yes, cracked parts can be replaced, but it is just not worth it. I mean, after you spend a few days installing the kit or, worse case scenario, paying someone else to do it and then have a header crack after 1000 miles and have to do it all over again or pay someone again...it is just not worth it.

Now, if they made the kit using mild steel instead of super cheap/thin 306 stainless it would probably be a different story.

and like I said before, they do make the power, the problem is reliability.

b&g custom turbo is a great kit its just like the 0n 3 performance but it never cracked on any1 and it also has a 4 year warranty on 3 performance dont even have 1


they have kit for the 5.0 up on their website but i dont see any kits for the 2v or 4v ....their kits are like 2 300 more than on 3 performance but it doesnt fail for all the research i did :awesomework: if they have a kit for the 4v i would be all over it its like a $2000 kit

B&g turbo makes a nice, yet affordable kit. I am currently running their headers which I got back in 06 and they are still going (though recently I did have to fix a small crack due to the weight of the turbo I used, not really because of poor craftsmanship or inferior materials) I already made a support for the new turbo so that all of its weight doesn't rest of the header...anyways that's another story....

What you have to do is keep an eye out for a used kit. I have seen them go for 2k or even less.
Or if you have any fabricating skills you could probably do it even cheaper/simpler by doing a remote turbo (basically replace your mufflers with two small turbos or a single, slightly larger turbo and then run the cold side pipe to your motor. Everything under the hood stays the same except for the charge pipe. You might not even need and intercooler, as the lenght of the piping will cool the intake charge)
Remote mounted turbos are not as efficient, but they do make power and are much more simple/ cheaper to install
