GI on budget turbo kit

I would certainly be interested in a kit like this. I like the idea of it being more of a "starter" kit that is easily upgradeable.

What would it do to the price if I supplied my own TD04 turbo?

I boost 6psi daily and my tranny is slipping through first to second and notch every once in a while. im getting ready to convert to standard tranny. i think youd be okay with tranny cooler good fluid and only racing form 2nd gear or even spirted driving. I ignored all this advice and its why my trannies going to fall on its face soon.
But how much power do you think you're putting down, because that T3 is much bigger than the turbo in this kit.
 
oooh no no no im not saying it wont work im saying you should have a tranny cooler and redline or some high performance ATF. I choose to ignore alll of this and im paying for it but i want a 5speed so im swaping it... If you take the precautions its so much fun to own a turbocharged car and this way you wont be ownd by mustangs all the time hah.

I remember talking to theMan about a tranny cooler once, but I don't remember where he said to find one. Do you know of any place off hand so I can guage pricing?
 
likes the idea of a budget kit!! but will this be enough to out run moostanks gt's and other cars.. but i would want to add an IC just for looks and performance.. but then that would put me back up to the SS kit?? donations greatly appreciated!

i am so all over this... it will take me awhile to save the money, but when i do i would love to have this kit. i would lean more toward the TDO4 since it would be that much cheaper, and the availability of upgrading to a FMIC sometime in the future would be a good idea, eventhough im fine staying in the 6-7psi range. And i would also like to know what the price might be like if i provide my own TD04? Beau i think this kit would make you alot of money, and if its anything like the quality ive heard that the ss kits are like then i know where my money is going... keep up the good work!
