Dezod...I want to commend you on your effort for making a 7thgen turbo kit. You respond to all of the questions asked...and you even ask us what WE want in this turbo kit (i.e. Spearco intercooler or HKS intercooler). Great job so far...looking forward to this turbo kit.

well sorry to crash everyone's freaking BANDWAGON party but I'm sure SF said the same things Dezod is saying right now before SF took off like it has...not trying to hate on u Dezod but I'm just stating, u're talking a good game like I'm sure SF did before they took off mass producing but lets see how good customer service DEZOD REALLY HAS WHEN THEY HAVE LIKE 6 OR MORE ORDERS...btw, I'm not taking up for SF either...just stating the facts guys...how many people u got building these kits Dezod?....will u GUARANTEE a delievery date and if the date is not met, some type of compensation?....lets see what u're really about Dezod...once again not hating...lets just step it up...take note from SF and do the things they're NOT doing and learn from their mistakes...b/c u know and we all know...if your kit is good as it sounds and even better than some of these other turbo kits out here for our cars, u're gonna have MAD orders coming your way and I know its gonna be tough to build turbo kits with just a couple people ya know....

Yeah I understand what your saying. No harm intended. First off, it is just 3 people making these kits (including myself). That is not a huge production, but efficient enough to accomplish quite a bit. I am not a man of empty promises like other people have conveyed. I am a man of my word. ANYONE who has dealt with me on any type of transaction can vouch that, and knows I NEVER MAKE A PROMISE I CAN'T KEEP. Unreal ETAs seem to be another issue....If I am not even close to having to any of a kit produced, and the orders keep bangin in....I will honestly say, ETA is 6 months or a year.....depending upon realistic evualation. I tell it how it is, no BS. As far as your six orders comment, that is the best one.......I figured I'd address that one last. My BACKORDER list now is about 15.... I don't like it anymore than anyone else. I was just down to 2, two weeks ago. Not much you can do sometimes. But, your right. We'll see when the pressure hits. I am ready for a challenge.

I think we all do. It's normal and only time will tell. Trust me, you will be notified of a worst case scenario based upon material availibility, and such.


Obviously if HKS, for example has no more BOVs & I/Cs then there isn't a hell of a lot I can do about that.

lol... not to bash Dezod for stating that it is almost finished... but half of ur people are looking at pictures and don't even know what ur looking at... the pics he showed you in the first page are pics of stuff that needs to still be all welded up and stuff... you have no idea what the final product is truly gonna look like at that point...

anywayz... now that i'm done with my rant... i am glad to see a new manifold coming out but i'm not gonna fake on How , "ohhh it looks just fabulous dezod" post pics when the mani is done so people can truly get away with saying how nice it looks... lol sorry dezod some people just don't know...

The mani is going to be welded together over the next few weeks. Just gathering the last few components, and then it's game time.

How are you going to handle the fuel? Are you using the stock fuel rail? The parts look good and the production seems to be coming along well. How are you running the ic piping? Are you using ps, ac, and stock engine components (just incase someone doesnt want to give up ps or ac, for the hot states, for a turbo)? In the end, is this going to be dyno tuned before mass production?

Not to be an @ss or anything. Just asking questions other people are thinking. I'm leaning more towards the k20 swap. But I do have to say, you are a man of your word. Although I havent ordered anything from you, you are honest and keep the ball rolling. To bad I'm not closer to see the work in person. The best of luck to you.

Fuel system is near completion, but I can't give details because we have 2 or 3 different designs for it, and not sure which will work the best. So that is going to be determined during testing. I/C piping issue was already addressed in this thread. Only mod we are certain that will have to be made is relocating the battery. PS & AC will remain because we feel your shouldn't have to give those up for performance. Buffalo is VERY hot & muggy during the summer time, so giving up AC is a . Yes it will be dynoed several times prior to release. Dyno graphs will be posted as well.

Yet another phase has been conquered with the I/C being purchased. We are purchasing the Aluminum Charge Piping this week or next to begin mocking up.

If you can, please provide us with a few pictures, even if they are just some teaser things. I know you don't want to give out shots of every piece and what you're doing, but I think there's enough demand for your kit that a few of us would like some shots of R&D, if possible.
