Clearly there aren't any turbo "kits" avaliable to purchase for the MM, so what would you pay for one to be made?
Hot side only?
Hot and cold?
Turn key?

I have a feeling these guys are no longer in business. The site news section hasn't been updated since 2011.

Correct they are not in business. Search function showed me "Todd" had the kit (sold the car) and "Juno" has the kit (selling the car) ....and of course Zack who custom made his kit.

Anything in terms of S/C or Turbo charging a Marauder will come from ones own creativity, and skill set, at this point there arent any other options.

That I know. But if there were one to possibly reproduce. What would be a general paying price from those who are interested.
For example. What would one pay zack if he reproduced his creativity turbo kit?

Lotsa work, and he's still tweaking it. Pipe fabbing and installation is only part of it, turbos are an entirely different animal when it comes to FI. IMO, unless you've got high level mechanical and tuning skills, I'd stick with a Roots or centri blower.

Oh no not me. I'm talking asking in reference to sourcing someone. What would one pay. Just trying to get a general idea of what it'll cost if it was a FI to consider that's all.

Judging on the amount of fab work that Zack took on his turbo, I'd guess at least $6K (I'm guessing he's got well over 100 hours fabbing on the pipes alone).

The main thing with a Turbo kit for the Marauder is the fab work on the exhaust, getting the turbo mounted, and the clearance issues you have to work with on the Marauder, ive built 3 turbo motors for Grandnationals i owned, i will say there is no comparison on HP levels on the Turbo when setup right its much stronger.
For a well engineered 1st class kit i would look at $7 to 8K!

Depending on volume of production I'd say $6,000 to $8,000.
