Just to update everyone I'm about halfway finished with the new brackets. The powersteering is done, the blower mount is done. I'm just working on the clearance between the swing of the auto-tensioner and the blower while making sure to keep everything in line.
Once the stuff is finished here it will be sent back to CA for the (hopefully) last casting process. This process shouldn't take anymore than 48hrs on his part to be re-shipped back to me. Once I can test fit everything and make sure the belt won't walk and it holds good tension I'm going to install it on Millers car and get baseline numbers from his kit (using the BEGi FMU).
Just didn't want you guys thinking I had forgotten about this. I've been working 50+hrs a week lately and it's hard for me to find time to work on this since half of my shifts are until 10pm.

Everyone brings up that Taiwanese blower or the single "Area51" blower but no'one knows the inside dirt on them.
The ONLY area51 blower out there only made 180whp on a vortech S-trim @ 9psi with an e-manage and about $5K of supporting mods. It blows up constantly.
The taiwanese blower is a small Eaton M45 (not even the new generation MP45). It has a LIMIT of about 180whp on it's highest boost setting which is about 12-14psi. It has no inter/aftercooler of any kind. It will not allow you to use a strut brace. And it costs about $4500-5000 last I checked not to mention international shipping fees.
I will gladly race/dyno/price match either of these kits. When you guys see the new set-up it makes these others look like a joke and it's going to make more power than we'll be able to handle. These others just won't be able to compete with mine in any catagory.

It's been a while. Lots of things have happened and I just remembered about this.
I am in the process of trading my p5 in for a tacoma. I would really appreciate it if I could get at a refund please.
Thank you for trying Matt. I would have never been able to get something like this together.

Nutari, you should probably contact me privately if you're not going to stick it out.
Tim, right now it's 1am and I have today off to finish up some of the final details however it's storming like crazy right now so I'm not sure if I'll get to work on it today. If I can get about 3 good hours on it I should be able to finish it off today and get it prepped to ship back to the forge.

sorry guys. I've been very busy lately. Had some stuff going on and haven't been able to get everything completed in the time frame I wanted to. Here's some updates
Nutari, Your stuff is boxed up and ready to ship. I haven't gotten your money order yet but I will try to get my wife to pick it up on her next off day.
Timmy (and everyone else), I'm finishing the final shaping of the brackets and everything right now. I had to make small individual pieces of brackets and join them together. Once I'm satisfied of the final build I'll shape them up and send them out. I only get one more shot at this so I'm trying not to rush things and make mistakes. Also the weather hasn't been real cooperative.
On a personal note, we entered our rainy season here in Bama and due to the new construction going on behind my home my house got flooded and has started to shift due to errosion under the foundation. My doors dont close, my drywall has all cracked in every room, the house is litterally washing away. The flooding has destroyed my central heating/air unit and washed out my driveway (where I do all my work and design). I'm slowly getting it all back together where I can work more but it's still not back to normal.
As soon as I get the molds set and Millers car is test fitted with everything I'm probably going to be going out of town for a week or two. I will be out of pocket during that time so don't anyone freak out. I bit off more than I could chew at one time while working a 50hr/wk job. I'm going to finish it all though. Just bare with me a little longer.

Just curious if the kit is still available....?
Sounds like a great bolt on, I have been reading this thread for about the past year with a break over the last couple months, just paid offmy 02 ES and have started the Mod list.
Cant wait to see if I can get a WOMP.
