Well its just like anything else and has been said already, You get what ya pay for. I know Denny has installed 1 or 2 and what he has said. Id still buy one but upgrade to the Master Power. For the price you couldn`t buy anything else to make that kind of power unless it was a used supercharger or another turbo kit.
Kudos to the guy who makes a street monster with the least money invested, knowledge and motivation are a powerful tool...bleh to the guy who rolls in to the speed shop, swipes his credit card based on what the expert says and rolls out bragging about his numbers.
on3 isn't hiding anything, they're selling a comprehensive kit for a jaw dropping price. If you wanted to take the time to figure out what the hell you're doing you can have a 450rwhp foxbody, with decent car included for $5,000. This kit just made FI that much more accessible to the fox body world. I sure as hell don't have 6,000 to spend on a turbo kit and wouldn't period...on the other hand $1800-2000 really starts to look like a bargain.
Thats what Im talkin about! Make that much power for around $2000 any other way!!Quote:

If you want top notch quality be prepared to pay for it and in the case of HP you had also better be prepared to wait. I have heard of guys waiting 6 months or more for a turbo kit from them. Just don't expect top notch stuff for a third of the price.Quote:

i know Blackout has one on his car, im suprised he hasnt chimed in. As for the needing a k member for it to fit... is that true?
on foxbodys you do not have to but on 4.6 kits you do have to.
Has anyone ran a Pony Down kit ?
That's what everyone has suggested when I looked @ the on3 is the pony down.
i got an on3 kit on my car i just upgraded to the master power 76MM with the maf from on 2 had right at $2000 in the kit.I like it.my builder bitched about the fitment some and the V-band clamps are not all that good you may have to get a few better ones but not replace all of them.my last turbo kit was mostly chinese that we pieced together off ebay and bough master power turbo for it and i had a little more in it than buying the kit from on3
I have the kit on my 02 GT. Seems ok, I am just going to redo some of the piping though. I know that the Pony Down kit uses the stock K-member for the sn-95's. I am not sure about the rest. The kits all also use mild steel.
The on3 kits are good but there are some of the piping should be fitted a little better. I am currently getting my car converted to an auto and am in the process of cutting fitting some flex pieces in to the piping. It's definately worth the money in the long run.
Thanks for the input guys.
