He is expanding his product line & he already has kit with intercooler.
Dezod is an artist, so he wants to express his mind into building something that no one has ever done to d17 - intercoolless kit.

I think the more this goes on, the more this kit begins to make sense to me. My thought on it keeps evolving, but its still a good idea for Dezod in my mind.
I said this was the "foot in the boosted door" kit, which I still say, but you've gotta think of this more as the "Tinker special". He's giving you the guts, the manifold, turbo and downpipe, then giving you enough plumbing and the necessary accessories (BOV, lines, etc...) to make it run, then selling it at less than what his other kit costs because it has less stuff.
He's then leaving it up to the people who buy it to go to town on it in any way they see fit. It helps him make everyone happy because he's just selling the basic guts, and then everyone can go make their own custom kit out of it.

so dezod, would it be safe to run just your kit by itself, on low boost 4psi without having problems? obviously with some fuel management and tuning like emanage and injectors.

although i would love to buy the kit at a lower price, you have to pay for the quality and labor that is put into a product. the way i feel about it is that you should keep the kit that you have now but make it special order and make a kit to please the the customers that want that low psi for daily driving fun. but make it to where they can upgrade later if they desire to do so... with this being done you can make the assumption that these customers will come back to you since you supplied what they demanded... the basic laws of supply and demand!!! just my 2 cents on the matter! and by the looks of what most of the members on this site are saying this is what they want. keep up the great work dezod!

Is a psecial bolt mainly used for brake lines, and or fuel lines . I THINK you may be thinking of a bulkhead fitting maybe? Either way i recommend welding a fitting and it will never leak

If the manifold has a T25 flange, then you can use any T25 footed turbo, including the 28R.
Depending on the bolt pattern of Dezod's turbo of choice, the 28R has a 5 bolt turbine exit, whether or not his DP works depends on that and the size differential/orientation of it.
