I have a KFG setup with stainless crossover and downpipe. I had the turbo gone through by Cliff at Turbo Power near Sacramento, CA....it has a ceramic turbine, polished compressor housing and ceramic coated exhaust side. It is pretty. I will include everything that I have for the kit: air/fuel gauge, boost gauge, gauge pod, HKS SSQV (authentic) two stage blow-off valve, manual boost controller, custom chip, 19lb injectors, air filter, hoses, pipes etc...I had the kit on the car for a little over two years running 9-10psi of boost on a 114k mile engine with a 5-speed. I put Eagle F1 245's on the rear to keep from burning the tires off. Great thrust in 1st and 2nd gear. I will pack it up and ship it in a rubbermaid style bin for protection. Pics available, just haven't taken them yet. Looking for interest and offers.
-Chris 530.four one seven.1983
I also have a set of 21 lb. injectors, a Greddy e-manage piggy-back computer, and an MSD 6-AL ignition looking to sell seperately.

I'll get some pics tonight. Yes, this was on a 2.8 V6 with a 5-speed manual transmission. Not sure if it will fit an automatic or not. I put about $600+ into the turbo improvements, plus the kit and chip and add ons including another $300 for the HKS valve and the turbosmart boost controller. I've invested about $3500 into the whole thing. Hoping to get $1700 for all of it. Pick up is available, it will take me a couple of days to get it off of the car (it is in running order). Let me know what you guys think about the price.
For the MSD 6AL...let me get some pics for you, how about $135 shipped?

I would be interested at a much lower price and I'm sure many others. Everyone knows you have a lot invested in the kit and nobody means to offend you with lower offers, its just that I know for myself, at that price I would just keep saving for an engine swap or buy an older bike.
will the kit work with an automatic? also is there any cracks in the crossover pipe to the turbo? What are the bad parts of it. The custom chip, did you have any detonation or knocking under boost? or is the tune in the chip 100% perfect?

I don't know if it will work with an automatic, there are no cracks or problems with the crossover pipe. It will bolt up to stock manifolds. There are no bad parts, just used. After installing the custom chip, I did not have any problems with knocking or pinging (91 California pump gas), if anything, the chip is a little on the conservative side. I have had plans to put it on a dyno and dial it in a little further, but it has been a daily driver and I decided to go a different route as the engine that is in there was already tired when I put the turbo on it. The engine still runs properly and passes smog (the turbo has not destroyed the engine). It really improves power output on the V6 significantly and I am sure that there is more to be had after fuel pressure and timing are dialed 100%.
I'm interested in selling this ASAP: $1425 shipped.

Chris agreed to sell me this turbo for $900 in June. After calling me several times and many, many excuses he failed to send it. Last thing he told me was that he was moving and had no time to remove it from his car. I even offerrred to go to his house and pick it up and he said he had no time. From reading the above posts, does it sound like it was still installed on the car ?!
Now i get a message from a PFF member offerring to sell it to me for $1550 !!!!!!!
I don't blame the guy who now has it, but you can see that this is the kind of crap chris will pull, so think twice before trusting anything he says.

I had several requests for the tune I mentioned in this thread. I sent a copy to each of them. I don't know if anyone found them useful as I didn't hear back from any of them. Not even acknowledgement that they got them. Strange.....
... the last ime i checked, a whole NorthStar engine goes for about that much ...
