why does it have to be a garrett kit? why don't you "piece it together" and get the vulcan intake/turbo manifolds, whatever turbo you want, whatever BOV you want, whatever you want.

There is only 4-5 TOTAL "distributors" for Garret, none of which are vendors on here. The only way we can get them, is if we get them from a distributor.... None of the Distributors have them in stock.... We have checked. Garret does (so they say), which means it will take 2-4 weeks for "garret" to get a kit to a "distributor"

Hope that helps.

ive done that before and its not something i want to do again...i dont care for piecing it together one piece at a time and hoping this will work with that and what am i gonna do if it doesnt etc etc...i want something that is put in front of me, and will most assuredly work without 100 test fits...thats why

We would have to sell over $50,000 a year (most company buy in's are this large)

I dont think 25 members are ready to purchase?
