    So... I bought these in 2006 from this thread:
    3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

    As stated there this kit was on a car he bought from Matt Monet which Matt ran a 10.69 in. When I bought them he said they had a few thousand miles on them.
    I installed them on my car @ 71610 and just removed them @ 75801 (No I don't drive it much... I've put 400 miles on it the last 2 years cause I've been in grad school and drive my other car while this sits in the garage).

    They require a little grinding to part of the front and rear motor mount brackets (pics of mine included). Also will of course have to mount the front oil return drain on the oil pan.

    I had some exhaust smoke. The person I got them from said they never had any. Someone else said they had a similar problem where the seals got old from sitting and was great after replacing those. I didn't drop the pan to take off the -8 AN fitting, just capped it so you will need one of those. I can help provide a link to buy this.

    So hit me with any questions. Shafts are pretty tight, move maybe a millimeter when pressed firmly back and forth.

    Asking 2300 obo dropped price so you can have them inspected/rebuilt. I almost decided to rebuild these now but if for some reason they also had issues I'd rather the person had it done themselves and not worry about it.

    Sitting next to a DR-500 for comparison.


    I know it's hard to see but here is the area that needs cut out to fit the front oil drain line.


    Pic I stole a long time ago from someone elses car, shows the rear motor mount grind area.

    Had one offer so far. Lowering price since it would be prudent to have inspected / seals replaced...

    From Dynamic Racing site:
    "Boost with this kit comes on very fast and strong, our DR-800 test car makes 15psi by ~3500rpm and 30+psi by ~4000rpm. We have tested this turbo kit to over 32psi. "

    I would guess thats a little aggressive of an estimate but I didn't have my car set up as nice as Matt does his.

    What was your experience. I just don't want something that is a complete dog below 4000. Is there any power available without downshifting when interstate cruising?

    I sold them for the billet DR-750s... these new ones spool almost like stock! I drive mostly on the street so I didn't care for having to rev it up so much just to get going.

    And as of this afternoon the kit is sold. Thanks for the interest.
