Standard is a 72/68.
We can do the 75ex wheel. It's at an extra cost. Well worth the up charge.



(1) when or how did you contact me?

(2) I don't try to sell people kits when they call or email.
I don't believe in pressure tactics.
I believe in letting customers decide what's best off the information I offer.
I give recommendations for their builds and power levels.
And usually end the email with " let me know if you need anything else".
JUNK TURBO. what is a junk turbo. ?
My Stage 2 uses a 72/68 and Stage 3 uses a 76/68.
First none of these are just order and "BOLT ON" kits, which is the basis of my original rant, not an attack on anyone of these companies....

I can explain my customer experience with you or Kyle in further detail on this page if that's what you want me to do. The only reason why I mentioned you two is because of my interaction with both of you when I was ready to make my purchase.

I've talked to you maybe a dozen times in email, I've also spoken to you several times over the phone. I have no problem with the way you run your turbo business....I even have an order in with you, I sent you money a couple weeks ago and you helped me find what i needed, hope it comes soon.

As far as my ***EDIT*** turbo comment, might not be the right choice of words. But its nothing to get excited about nor does it make up the 1600 price difference.

That is true.
My kits are not true bolt on's.
there are several parts that I just can't supply.
So many choices to choose from
Final exhaust style and brand
Injectors poundage
Gauge selection
And the important one the tuner.
All though I have been looking for a tuner to bring one in house.
Just no luck so far.

Great choice in kit selection.

Since everybody's on the subject of discussing the differences between these kits (good or bad), which of these kits come setup for SD tuning vs MAF tuning?

I spoke to Adam at On3 and he said their kit does not have a provision for a MAF. It requires SD tuning or you have to modify the kit to accommodate the MAF. Is this pretty standard on all the kits?

Ours is set up for maf. But can be built for SD Tuning.
We also offer a maf delete. So say you
Started off mass air and decided to go SD
Tuning. We offer a section if tuning that matches the maf pretty close.
So you can remove the old mass air meter. Slip this section in. Good to go.

We can also add water meth or air temp bungs to the piping.

Honestly I would prefer to go with kb or a trick turbo kit. The reason I ask about the on3 kit is because it seems as if I can keep my triple alternator bracket that I use because of my system that I have. I've gone the cheap route before and I usually get burned or having to replace it again. Whatever it is.

Ive used On3's kit and it did bolt on and go... we bolted it on in 2 days and tuned it for 91 octane the next night until 2am then got up the next morning and drove it cross country for 37.5 hrs strait only stopping for gas. this was on a 1999 Z71 5.3 4x4. we did the normal stuff to support the boost as in 80# injectors, 400lph fuel pump, 3 bar map, triple 12 cam, pac springs and a 4l80e swap. we got 14mpg going 85-95mph and it would go into boost at 85+ if i was passing someone and needed the extra go for it to pass.

we used the spring that came with the kit and it made 8# and would creep to 10#.

Adam & Chad both said to contact them if we needed anything - but we never did. I now own another kit from them that i will be using as i sold the truck already and plan on getting another.
