WHY WOULD YOU CUT HOLES IN YOUR CAR??
Here is a brief run down.
We sell Hybrid kits, but they require 1 hole to be cut in the chassis (ILLEGAL), they require you to remove the air con and they require you to remove your air box (pod filter and intercooler in many states is ILLEGAL). BUT there is not really any other cheap option.... Or is there???
We have developed a kit from scratch to your specifications. The front mount intercooler measures 600*230*76mm's and uses Trust style end tanks. The end tanks are polished aswell as the piping, the piping is also mandrel bent aluminium and has minimal visable weld marks (as seen in the pictures). The pipe work is all 2.5" and is designed to support 300+ rwkw's. The kits allow you to keep aircon, keep your stock airbox, and there is no need for any holes to be cut in your car.
We deal direct with the factories in Asia and also deal direct with the customers (you guys) to help keep the prices down. This kit will retail for $649 but will be available for calaisturbo.com members for $599, or $499 for the first 20 people to pre-buy.

Guys I've seen the kit in the flesh and it certainly is very impressive. Very neat and tidy and looks to be of very high quality! Could not ask any better value for your money IMO.
Hey im interested in one of these kits, i just have one question to make sure it will suit my application, if im running a t3 ball bearing turbo, will this kit boltup to it?

If the turbo outlet is in the exact same location it will be a 100% direct fit.
If it isn't in the same spot then one of the pipe will need to be modified or repaced. This could be done with ease at an exhaust place or something like that. I wouldn't expect it to cost anymore than $100 or so as the hot pipe is quite short.
cheers,
Greg

It is 2.5" and goes down to 2" to meet up with the turbo.

It will be at this price until around a week before the kits arrive.
The kits should be here in around 5-6 weeks, so say 4-5 weeks this deal will be ending.
At this stage I would anticipate that all 20 kits will be sold by that stage (or very close too)

These kits were designed by myself, and we had one of our sister companies in Shanghai to manufacture the pipes.
The quality is like no other kit in Australia and for the price it is in my opinion *incredible* (not trying to blow my own horn).
cheers,
Greg

Price is absolutely amazing. Kit looks to be amazing quiality and the ability to have an exccellent cooler kit without chopping unsightly holes on the car is going to be very popular.
If I ever build anyother VLT this would be the kit i'd purchase. Well done mate.

Cheers Tim
As yep_boost has just said below, the car does have A/C and P/S, both the radiator and the condensor were removed at time of installation.
cheers,
