[kariamack]

[Blackened300a]

you would put this up forsale AFTER i start my eaton swap :cry:

That would have completely blown the bottom out of your Naz intake :rolleyes:

[RR|Suki]

4K for some pipe is kinda high no?

[ImpalaSlayer]

That would have completely blown the bottom out of your Naz intake :rolleyes:
:laugh: your not kidding

[Joe Walsh]

It does NOT have the Turbo, fuel pump, BOV, waste gate....nor boost controller??

Why was the kit gutted?

[LANDY]

wow! i know is a rare kit but that seems a litle steep for piping and some.

[Spectragod]

It's complete, all it needs is everything, oh, and it's 4k.....

[MrBluGruv]

k scratch that, thought about my offer and even 2500 is steep for going to a shop and having them make the piping for me instead.

$1500, just an offer.

[Richy04]

Come up with a reasonable price and some pics on it and I will fire off the funds. They closed whole systems out at a little more than that price.

[juno]

Please show us some pics of everything you have. I can identify what is missing and give folks leads and suggestions on what to use.

If someone buys this kit I will provide all the technical assistance I can. It would be great to see another turbo MM on the road!!!!

[kariamack]

I have no idea how to post pictures..i can email them ..and if you could can you post the pictures for me..and since everyone thinks it high ..go to a place that you know that does this kind of stuff and then tell me how much they are going to charge you.....that eveything from headers to all the piping ....do the math people

There is no one on this site currently that knows more about turbo'ed MMs than Juno. Anyone who's considering buying this please consult with him first.

Thanks for the plug Jim!!! :o

Todd is also another great source of info. He helped me immensely with advice during my purchase and install.

I did look at the pics in the PM I got and replied:

It appears to have all the piping and such.
This is the decription from the old website. I highlighted the items you asked about.

Dual 4 into 1 Tubular Mild Steel Headers w/ 1/2" laser Cut Header Flanges, 2 ½" Cross Over w/ Flex Connection, 3" Down Pipe that splits into Dual 2 ¼" ( Trademark ) to factory exhuast, Powder Coated Inlet Tubes, All V Band Connections, High Quality Silicone hoses w/ Aircraft Grade SS clamps. Lightning MAF.
Turbosmart 38mm Billet Wastegate, 12 psi By-Pass Valve, 3 Core Air/Air Bar & Plate Intercooler, Polished Silver or Satin Black 2000* Ceramic Coating and much more!
This kit INCLUDES a Garrett/Precision T-64E( 700hp Max Efficiently ),

*42 lbs injectors and a Walbro High Volume Fuel Pump. (did not order these. I went with 60's, GT fuel pump, and changed to a SCT 2400 MAF during tuning)

What you are missing is the turbo, wastegate, BOV, MAF, fans (VERY IMPORTANT. I have had no cooling issues with mine. Everyone who went with something different has had issues)

I paid 4700 for my kit minus the asterisked items. This kit does not have those either.

I will provide a link to my install in the thread.

Good Luck!!

Dave,

Sell me your Eaton and go buy that rascal!

[juno]

If someone wants to build a turbo mm this is probably your last good chance... these pieces are hard to come by.

[DTUB]

Do the pipes run over or under the aluminum suspension crossmember and do you lose anything such as the AC?

[Todd]

Do the pipes run over or under the aluminum suspension crossmember and do you lose anything such as the AC?

Just to answer for him.....

They run under but the point where they do is at the wheels so if you go over speedbumps etc they cant hit.

Also, it is no lower than some other items that hang down under the car including the air foil or whatever it is called in the front of the car.

Somewhere I posted a pic from the front of the car and you can not see the pipes. They are oval tubes and tight to the crossmember. And if you hit them, you have much bigger problems.

No, you dont loose anything. But you have to be creative with selection of cooling fans for the radiator.

[DTUB]

Todd, I see you still have your AC. Do you have the same type of kit thats for sale here? Because looking at the pics from JUNO and NTD the main tube going to the turbo looks like it go's over the crossmember where the AC compressor resides. I'm thinking of buying this kit but I'm alittle stumped here. Do you or anyone have any pic's of where this tube actually goes? Help needed!

[kariamack]

Yes Todd and Juno have the same kit that i have ... Todd has given me alot of info on the turbo thing so have Juno .. The main tube from the turbo does go under the cross member HERE IS THE LINK THAT SHOWS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE UNDER THE CAR http://www.forcedinductions.com/MercuryPTK.htm

[mgmsleeper]

up for grabs again. for 2k less. somebody anybody take it.

[LANDY]

i believe for how rare this set up is.

THAT PRICE IS A GIFT.

The kit does not eliminate the A/C. The pipe goes near, but not in place of the any factory parts.

There is a pipe that goes OVER the crossmember near the starter that carries the exhaust after it has been combined from each head up to the turbo.

They give you some of that heat shielding to go over the starter. If it isnt in the kit here (I havent looked at the pics in detail yet), you can get it from any speed shop. they make universal stuff that would wrap around it or there are started specific kits as well.

[juno]

Here is the pic from PTK. You do not lose anything. The PS cooler and reservoir do have to be moved slightly though. If I had the cash I would buy the piping just to have spares!

Bump. serious buyer only ..its time to move on and i will never be able to enjoy this kit ..So someone buy this so i can move on ..Make me a offer ...I was asking 2K for it ..but i will now take offers ..My number to be reached on is 904-654-3618

[cougar9150]

Damn I wish i could jump on this but I have repairs that need addressing first. If you were interested I might be able to trade a stage 5 Eaton, a set of Kooks headers, the mid-pipes to the input of the mufflers and work out the difference. God my wife will kill me if she reads this.....

You craking me up here phil. But I would like to see that kit in your car. I'm here trying to convince mine about buying an aluminator 8:5.1 compression.

[LANDY]

Btw kari that sound like a good deal, and you will be on your way for an aton swap. If it goes thru Im willing to help with the swap.

[cougar9150]

What can I say I would love to hear the sounds of a waste gate at WOT coming form under the hood. If I had seen he had dropped the price a month ago I would have skipped a couple of the items I did recently.

I would just have to park the MM for a couple months while I got all the other parts together. I would also be more than willing to help with the install.

The only difference is I'm not sure if your girl will stab you like I think my wife will.

[kariamack]

no Eaton swap here ....just other plans ..i just can afford to finish it rite now ..

[cougar9150]

oh well "C'est la vie", though I would try at least. Might be able holler at you soon if it is still available.

Might give you a holler when I come up to Jacksonville in a month or so just to take a look at it if you still have it. The wife and I are planning to visit my Mom who lives in that area for a weekend and wouldn't mind meeting up with you and Landy along with a couple other MM owners up there while I'm in town.

WTH... I thought I was a serious buyer. :depress:

[kariamack]

you were ..but i needed to move it quick then, and by the time you wrote me it was to late for me to make a move .so i back out of the sale ..I wanted this thing so bad I drove 24 hours to go and get it and also losing 2000 just by selling it for this price ..i have had it for almost 3 years now .and im really sure i do not want it anymore ..sorry if i did you wrong but i was only selling it at the time to buy something i wanted and that something was already sold when i got your email

[DTUB]

It's all good man. I'm pretty happy with the Eaton but theres no denying the horsepower rush of a well setup turbo system.

[kariamack]

Thanks for understanding ..and i know what you mean about turbos ..but one day i will do it again ..There a shop here in Jacksonville that could do me a nice turbo kit maybe even twins ..but That will be in the future

[Joe Walsh]

It's all good man. I'm pretty happy with the Eaton but theres no denying the Torque of a well setup turbo system.

fixed it for ya'!

Cruising on highway with turbo car...slightly depress gas pedal....HUGE rush of torque propels car forward like Godzilla is pushing on your rear bumper.

Offer sent.........

[ImpalaSlayer]

damn id so rock a turbo. Bob, copy the headers will ya?

[LANDY]

I was thinking the same thing dave, since the company is not in business anymore someone should invest in making more kits. This is the oportunity for some easy turbo set up, with out much r&d time. Can someone do that? Por favor (please) I'm sure like me, many of you guys see a turbo in your future.

[LANDY]

Since I'm saving for an aluminator. I'm out of this deal. One thing at a time.

[cougar9150]

Do it Bob, do it....

So the way I want to go, just something about the sound of a them and the way they run through the power band.

Been wondering if I could fab something up while still using the Kooks headers, just don't think they could take the heat and I don't know how to weld. :( want to take classes....

[ImpalaSlayer]

hey Bob, if your willing to have a company or someone to copy these if you get them, id pitch in some money to help get the ball rolling

[justbob]

If I decide to go thru with this, it will most likely sit in the basement for some time. As for the headers, I would be a little worried about copywright infringements. I have read that one of the primaries hits the steering arm bolt, changing that a tad is redesigning right? LOL

My biggest worry here is finances for the right tune. I have a good place in mind, but not sure how bad they would rape me.

change em so they work right, there, not the same anymore, win

[hotford]

the kit at 2000 k is well worth it if your looking for a Turbo on the MM,the only issue I have it's not SS vs mild steel,I really don't like the way the exhaust goes under the factory aluminum front suspension.
I think the over flow bottle could use a bracket to keep it up right as well.


Good luck with the sale.

[kariamack]

BUMP .. 1800 plus shipping and its yours ..I have a lot more pics available ..i just dont know how to post on here

[justbob]

I have decided to not go with this set up because honestly 1)I know NOTHING about turbo's 2) To complete this kit it would cost an additional easy $2500 on up and we could not agree on a price. 3) I was hoping to slide out from the Trilogy into this, and that is not going to happen at the prices that I came up with. 4) The tuning price still scares me. I will say this, he is a great guy with very quick communication. Just the headers alone in this kit certainately is hard to pass up. Unfortionately I just don't have the income right now to pursue this. I have included much better detailed photos for Kariamack in order to help him move this stuff.

On a side note, if you went with rebuilt or used parts, you could put this together on the cheap, however I am done with anything other than new from now on.
