Ok I'm interested, but what else would I need to get this installed, and my other concern is tuning.

I'm kinda interesed too. But I really know fuck-all about turbos and kits like that. If I understand correctly these Island Kits are from the mid 80s and made for the PRV. What are some of the concerns involving the age of these kits. And projected labor costs to have a mechanic install it? What's all in the kit? Like the other guy said, what else might need to be purchased?

I think I have the installation instructions for these if anyone need them...

FYI... the mufflers were actually resonators from a Mustang II. They are no longer available. They are very small -- like a 9" body; you will probably need to have the mufflers custom made.

Boost is adjustable. They have an equalizer (H-connection and vacuum lines) to keep them running the same. Max is 7lbs on a stock engine. I run mine at around 3.

Ahh, I see. So I won't be able to adapt this setup with existing components on a DMCH Stage II will I?

Not easily James. You can 180 the turbo's and change the routing the use a dual in dual out muffler configuration but it is a lot of work. One system left at this time.

Hmm, sounds like a lot of work... I think that's a bit beyond my level, and too much money to have my mechanics do it. Drat.

Ended up only selling seven of the kits. The manifolds on two of the kits were questionable.

I have an original muffler in average to good condition that I'm not going to use again.

there should be two mufflers for the twin turbo setup, is that what you have?

No, I took original as meaning stock when Cecil said original. I think I was mistaken in my thinking.
