The turbo is going on the truck.
As for the Cmotorsports kit, I wasn't aware that they were producing the kits for purchase now. I'd spoke with someone over there a couple of times and left my contact info each time to be contacted when something came of the kit and have never heard anything back. Can't tell from the pics on that setup, but is the turbo being fed at all from both banks, or is it just being fed by the passenger side?

Yes there is a crossover to fead from both banks.
My kit is used, it came from one of their local customers. I bought it from an individual, but CMS removed it from his truck and shipped it to me. I'm not sure if they are selling the kits of not. But, Sam is very helpful, give him a call to find out.

Having a turbo fed by only 1 bank is a BIG no-no.

Build it your self if you have the time and money.. I built mine using the same manifolds, and exhaust the truck comes with.. The intercooler and charge piping took alot of time the way I ran mine.. Not sure what the final power is but damm its fun driving, especially on cool mornings. Things falls off a little over 100' air temp outside.. These pic are while I was prototyping the kit out, I am in the process of building another one so everthing is dirty. sorry about that...
Anyone have an idea on how much HP the stock manifolds can move?
