DTS Turbo Kit

Re: DTS Turbo Kit

I'm sorry I still don't see it.

So $3,460 gets you:

Headers
Intercooler
Wastegate
Exhaust
Blow Off Valve

What am I missing, because that doesn't seem like enough for the money spent?

I imagine it includes everything listed here minus turbos and twin turbo headers

DeKerlegand Turbo Systems is now producing a Twin Turbo Kit for the 4.3L engines. The 4.3L Twin Turbo Kit is also 100% bolt on and comes with everything you need for your turbo conversion. Every nut, bolt, vacuum hose, fuel line, oil line, and fuel component needed for installation is included! Plus all stainless steel exhaust components and aluminum intercooler components are backed by a limited lifetime warranty. Should any of the welds ever fail we will repair or replace them for free!!

The 4.3L Twin Turbo Kits are set @ 8psi which will significantly increase your horsepower from the stock 160whp to around 300whp. However, the 4.3L Twin Turbo Kits are capable of a MASSIVE 1000 horsepower when combined with a built engine, fuel and ignition components necessary to support high boost levels!

4.3L Twin Turbo Kit Includes:

(2) T3/T4 Turbo's Bell Intercooler Intercooler Brackets Aluminum Intercooler Piping Aluminum Upper Radiator Hose Aluminum Radiator Overflow Tank Silicone Couplings T-bolt Clamps Tial Q Blow-off Valve Sch. 10 Stainless Steel Turbo Manifolds Stainless Steel Downpipes Blox FMU Maradyne Electric Fan Conversion Kit Autometer Boost Guage Vaccum Harnesses Vibrant Air Filter PCV Filter

As well as all necessary gaskets, hardware, and instructions

The complete 4.3L Twin Turbo Kit is $4600.00

Re: DTS Turbo Kit

Interesting, I guess now that I can see everything listed it doesn't appear to be a "bad" deal.

A full stainless steel exhaust downpipe to exhaust tip is about $1,000

Turbo headers about $1,000-$1,500

Depending on the intercooler they use about $500-$1,000

Electric fan conversion about $200-$300

Blowoff valve about $150-$200

Appears to be about $500 in misc (gaskets, air filter, boost gauge, clamps, bolts, etc.)

You didn't mention fuel injectors, stall convertor, wastegate (are theirs internal gates). What are they doing with the "popet spider injection" situation?

Re: DTS Turbo Kit

David is only doing a Single Turbo kit for me, I paid for everything except a Turbo, I sent him mine. But he's doing the Y Pipe w/ T3-4 flange in case I upgrade. I'm already looking at the HX40 w/ modded wheel, so we'll see. Once all said and done, I'll post my numbers. I just ordered a Trans/Stall last week from PerformaBuilt.com 2 yr warranty, even if I run it at the track, on boost, with NOS, warranty still good!....

But 3460 purchased me (still in the works, not sure when pic's will be up)
Headers
Y Pipe w/ T3-4 flange
Intercooler
Plumbing to/from Intercooler
Exhaust
Adjustable Waste Gate
Recerc BOV (he's never done one of these, so if you don't use one, your price might not be as much)
Clamps and boots

That I know of, thats all that is being covered in what I paid for.

Re: DTS Turbo Kit

Are you sure? I know there is a guy on s-seriesforum that made right at 400whp with a procharger, big intercooler, and some methanol. He was running the stock spyder style injectors I think.....I'll go dig up the thread.

Some people who have fuel issues, use Methanol to compensate for lack of fuel. I've got one friend who has a 347 stroker (Ford 302) with Vortech T trim, and he's using Methanol to compensate, but for over 700 whp, he's def drop'n some power! But the wise ass jus wrecked it, and I might be scooping up his Snow Meth kit!....
