New Twin Turbo Kit coming soon!

Just wanted to give all you guys a heads up. I found a twin turbo kit at PRI that I would be proud to put on my own car. This is a top notch kit and may not be in the price range for everyone, but for those that want no compromise, I think this is the kit.
It was designed by Rick Head of Exile Turbos and will be released by Team performance products. They are new in this arena and their site is not up just yet. This kit puts the turbos where they belong (IMO) and is engineered just how I would do it on my own car. No cutting required. I'll have some pricing info by the end fo the week for you guys.
If you are looking for a bargin, this kit is not for you. If you are looking for a nice kit that you will pay a bit extra for, stay tuned!

Will work with stock manifolds or shorty headers.




One of my favorite features is the turbo mount/oil distribution block. Very nice. It's not pictured but the kit comes with a carbon fiber under belly to protect the kit.

Also features a real carbon fiber inlet tube.


Let me know what you guys think!

Very nice! I've always felt the turbos needed to be right there too.

I love it. My only concern is what happens when you drive in rain, or even over a wet patch? Will any water get sucked into the engine?

Yes! my question exactly!!! one of my buddies recently tanked his eclipse when he hit an unexpectedly deep puddle from a water main break. He shut it down when the motor started to choke but the damage was already done. the turbo hydro locked the motor, filled the intercooler and cylanders with water and bent all the valves.

I don't think the intake routing on that will be good for a daily driver. but I guess most guys who install that are not going to be driving it daily.

Well it states there is a carbon cover that is not shown, I presume that is why it is down there.

That is correct. While i didnt get a chance to catch up with Rick at his booth to see the car & kit in person, i have known him for several years & he has been keepin me posted on the build up of this kit. I was pretty excited to hear about it since i stepped up to the 07 a few months ago. He said the car drives smooth as hell. I may be on the left coast next year & if so you can bet i will be stopping by his shop to take it for a drive Exile does have a website up, you can check it out here: www.exileturbo.com
