Here is the boost levels it has been run at so far:
5psi with stock mufflers 91 Octane ( 418rwhp, 448rwtq)
7.5psi with stock mufflers 91 Octane (449rwhp, 521rwtq)
5psi with Magnaflow 91 Octane (Have not dyno'ed yet)
7.5psi with Magnaflow 91 Octane (Have not dyno'ed yet)
10psi with Magnaflow 91 Octane (Have not dyno'ed yet)
12psi with Magnaflow Race Gas ( 603rwhp, 657rwtq)
14psi with Magnaflow Race Gas ( 637rwhp, 682rwtq)
This week, I think its gonna be the pump gas with Magnaflow catback dyno thrash week. As you can see this poor car has had a LOT of dyno pulls on it, and track and street time.

Who = House of Boost
What = Self Contained Twin Turbo Kit
Where = Um, USA I guess....I am sure shipping anywhere is possible
When = Soon as testing is 100% complete, and owners manual is made.
Cost = Same as any other twin turbo kit, final pricing soon to come
Hope that helps at least some. I'll try to post more as I know it.

When you say soon, how soon. I may completely change my engine performance mods that I was going to do if this system looks as good as it is sounding. If the price falls around the APS kit price I may be interested.

I have a question so please don't take it as anything other than a simple question. I know how people like to twist stuff! Anyhow aren't other TT kits imported? Which adds the additional cost? Even for the local suppliers they have to purchase it with the shipping included correct? So to make it up they list them at their current prices. So if this kit is made and sold in the US wouldn't it be able to be a good bit cheaper?

If anything, the ones imported should be cheaper then the ones here because of the exchange rate. The price of almost everything from oz has more or less stayed level the past months while the dollar has gotten alot stronger then the oz dollar.
Also the biggest parts of any kit are probably imported at some point, IE turbo, intercooler. So while the pipes may be made here the other stuff probably is not.

So all you did was fabricate a turbo kit for the car and put an exhaust on it? THAT's IT??
Stock injectors, fuel pump, fuel rail? What's your AFR's?
The auto tranny takes all this power without any issues? NICE!! I'm impressed..
I'm liking this car more everyday as I read about it..

60# injectors
BAP (Boost-a-Pump)
Thats it. Nothing more, same parts that will come in the kit for the average guy.
I could make my AFR's 9.0 if I wanted. But here was my targets:
11.8 was for all passes, dyno, and street driving on Pump Gas
11.0 was for all passes, dyno, and street driving on Race Gas
Pretty simple tune actually. Took my 4 loads on my base tune, and then all I do is manipulate fuel, and timing when I change the boost and fuel used.
The tranny is doing fine. The only thing I did in the tranny tuning was to take out the TQ management (So yes it has been holding many many miles of 650+ ftlbs of TQ upshifts) and raised the line pressures a tiny bit to help exicute the shifts. Other then that I haven't touched the trannys programming.

Eric is that you from House of boost. I talked to you about tuning my stock g8 and building a harness for my truck for an ls2 that I have. That turned out to be a bad ass
g8, congrats.

I am definitely impressed to see all these stock components handling this power, pretty awesome! Do you have the AFM turned off? I am interested to see some pictures of this turbo kit complete.
