Didn't know that was Lens work. Don't get me wrong, the craftmanship looks great. But if you picture air moving like water, that's some hellacious turbulence where all four flows meet. And I've only seen one person reporting results from the Chill Factory kit.
Best (only one I have seen posted anywhere) dyno 300whp looks like this. And from what I understand, this is the CF test car.



No times, no good dynos, no testimonials.

I know Len has made some of the fastest Neons around, I resepct that. But so far, his SRT kit is an unproven deal.
You have to remember, its a turbo, its not exactly free flowing as it is. In fact if you think about what you are doing its a rather restrictive process. You are taking exhaust gasses and using them to spin a turbine which in turn forces air to be sucked into a very small area and compressed which in turn gets super heated then you are taking that compressed super heated air forcing it into an intercooler to possibly cool it by 100* more if you are spraying the IC down not to mention that the air has to make several 90* turns before pushed out the other side and forcing the colder by product into sometimes an even smaller opening with a butterfly to create power. But before it can be used as an accelerant int he combustion chamber its got to wait for the intake valves to open so while in the intake manifold it sits there and swirls around a bit.

I do admit, that the ports do need just a little work where the gasket meets the primaries so before it goes on I'm taking the Dremel to it.

besides, what my intentions are its fine for me. I'm not looking ot break any records and I don't even race. I'm building it to be a quick little road car, nothing more just something thats got a hell of a lot of get-up and go when I mash the pedal to the floor. I was never into racing, I've always loved the open road. So if it drops 275 to the wheels (which is about average for what I'm doing) I'll be happy.

Let us know how it works out, I know there were a couple of folks here interested in that kit.

I will, but I don't have a CF kit per se. What I've got is a Chill Factory manifold. Everything else I've picked up from trusted friends and people I've known for a while. With the exception of my JDM Trust boost controller. Which I must say for a piece of equipment found on rice mobiles its damn nice. I was really impressed with it when I got it. Of course I'm still planning on putting a huge sticker over the **** that reads TRUST on it with one that reads "Got boost?" .

looks damn good but whats with the primaries? They are a little uneven. Or is that just the angle the pic is taken at that makes them seem uneven?
