Wow that looks yummy.

DO WANT.

In order to keep responce I like the idea of retaining the tmic. Fmic just adds too much cost for me. Lets see what you can do with an 08 next!

**AMS** · 07-02-2008, 11:45 AM

Here are some pics of the "protoype" kit fully installed on an 05 STI. The customer decided to go with a Perrin stealth series FMIC kit so we went ahead and powder coated pieces of our turbo kit to match that of Perrin perfectly. Since the PERRRIN FMIC kit uses a different feed pipe we had to fab that up as well.

Down-pipe

Close up of the welds...

Up-pipe in the engine bay-notice the sturdy turbo support bracket.

Close-up of the up-pipe

Another close up of the up-pipe. Notice the welds on the inside...

AMS Turbo Oil Return line

Shot of the kit mounted

Shot of the engine bay

The powder coated AMS Turbo Inlet pipe

Another angle, notice the BOV Recirculation pipe

Shot of the undercarriage, AMS kit paired up with a PERRIN exhaust manifold..

Down-pipe and the EWG dump tube.

Looking up the down-pipe...

Shot of the up-pipe and the turbo...

Please keep in mind those recent pictures are prototype pics. the downpipe and up pipe we will have bend in one piece without so many welds.

well we are still trying to get all the components together for pricing but it looks like the GT35R kit should be priced around $3999.95 (subject to change) and include a WHOLE lot of goodies

GT35R Turbo with Tial V-band housing and Anti surge compressor cover
Custom AMS Up-pipe all V-banded (Thick wall 304 SS) With Support Bracket
Tial 44mm V-band Wastegate
AMS Custom Dump Tube
AMS Custom 3" V-band Downpipe
AMS 3" Test pipe to mate to the stock or most aftermarket Catbacks (a High Flow cat will be an option for a nominal fee)
AMS Custom made Silicone Turbo Outlet pipe for either a Top Mount IC or a Front Mount IC (your Choice)
Full AMS Cold Air intake pipe with larger MAF housing
Turbo Heat shield
All Oil and Water lines and fittings.
Every bolt and gasket needed to bolt this onto the car
And of course backed with the AMS product warranty

The up-pipe will be suited to bolt up the stock header or our soon to be released header.

We will also be offering a Gt3076R Kit like on my old white 07 Sti that went 11.30 with a TXS top mount FULL weight on street tires. That kit will most likely be a tad bit cheaper due to the turbo itself being a bit cheaper.

Also expect our New AMS GT850R kit to be released for just a few more bucks than the GT35R kit. that turbo is an ANIMAL! it spools only 100 rpm later than A GT35R but makes more power than our 37R. On an EVO with a 2.3 we were able to make 740AWHP!

We have most certainly done our research on this kit. We wanted this to not only be a power potent kit but to be reliable and very well made as with every product that carries the AMS name.

I don't think I will actually make this available to purchase for about a 1-2 weeks as there are some small bits that we are waiting on final pricing on. We don't really like taking orders or money until we can get the customer their product in a timely fashion. I do know there are many of you out there that are waiting for this though. The kits would ship roughly 8 weeks from todays date based on material sourcing and labor to assemble them.

One thing to keep in mind with all our turbo kits we really do try to make them as COMPLETE as possible. The last thing we want is for you to have to run to the hardware store to finish putting your kit on. We give our kits to our techs and have them install them over and over again to make sure you are given everything needed to put this on the car. This is why pricing takes so long as each little bolt and gasket needs to be accounted for.

Thank you again and keep your eyes out for a formal release here in the coming days with the option to purchase the kit

So the wait is almost over, thank you to everyone for being so patient. We promise to make it worth the wait
