I've seen talk about it on another site... Looks good. Hopefully it's affordable otherwise it will end up like every other pipe kit out there that nobody can afford...

He said he doesnt have a set price yet but he said the highest would be is 475 for everything and all i have to do i grab a cooler which i got off my buddy for free! Does that sound like an ok price?

Personally, I wouldn't pay it.. You can get some pipes from a 7.3 SD and make them work, but if you want some custom pipes that just slide right in, that is a good choice. The reason he doesn't have a price yet is because they are still in the beginning stages of building them. Once he gets a feel for who all wants them, he can get them built and determine the price from that. The more sets he does the cheaper the price will be...

I got off the phone with him about an hour ago, seems like a stand up guy and he said the reason he doesnt have a set price i because his prototype is being duplicated and they will tell him how much it will be if he orders 15-30 and like 50-100 or something like that. He also said they are us made so thats a +. I really don't want welds all over my pipes and i can't find a spyder anyway. I just thought it was nice to just buy a whole kit and stick my cooler in it and be done. I'm on the road a lot with this thing and i don't have time to run around and find parts thats all. I just wanted to know what you guys thought. It doen't seem like a scam but idk i figured id ask you guys!

I didn't say it wasn't a good product... I'm saying you could buy two SD pipes for like 50 bucks, find an early 99 spyder for 100-150 bucks and the boots. You will need to extend the boots on one side, I forget which one to make it work cuz it comes up a little short I think... So you could save yourself some money. But if you want a one and done, go for it...

or just go to a big rig shop and get different bends and cut, weld, then cut some more and weld some more. look on this site. there is a thread for intercooling OBS or something like that. there are a few links with pictures of home made kits.

Its not hard to make your own, and even his kit will still have welds in it.
