Ok guys... im shopping for a turbo kit....I wanted to get the peakboost or the full race... i know alot of peolpe dont have the peakboost so i really dont have ne fed back on the kit... I just need som help on makin a life long decison lol.... lil help guys... pro cons of each ne thing

 

oh god don't open up this can of worms....personally I like the full-race for the backdoor intercooler. you have to get rid of your A/C either way why not eliminate an intercooler pipe But I think peakboost is great for the price 600 cheaper and you get a fan and an fmu

 

full race. Proven quality, performance, durability and bragging rights

 

Might wanna do a poll for this to simplify this...my vote's with Full-Race--and we have access to ANY turbo kit, period. Or, try a search. When searching, try using the "archived" version. Also, for more responses, use the "post bodies" version. I'm sure Full Race can answer any questions and/or concerns you may have. They are frequents on this site.

 

Id say Full Race they are awesome to deal with and back their products like no other. geoff and todd

full race = **** that wont crack

full race has the best customer service too.. even when everything in the world breaks on you.

 

I don't see the back door intercooler alone as a reason to go with full race. You can run the same setup with most any other manifold, and I don't really see any advantage to that setup anyways.

 

I pieced together my own kit but I would go with peakboost cause its cheaper and they're customer service is excellent. Extra money u can spend it on tuning

 

Which ever you choose is gonna to be the right choice

 

my friends hatch made 400+ whp on 14 psi with peak boost manifold 91 octane

nope my friend has a EK

 

To Geoff and all the guys at full-race. I'd would go Full-Race.

 

Cant go wrong either way.

 

I've never heard of PeakBoost, but they may be perfectly good. Most people on this website think that Full Race is the only way to make good power. It's more for status than anything else. Sure, the welds are beautiful, but I've seen some nice work from other people. Before you start posting dyno results proving that FR can make great power, I've already seen them. Bottom line...If you have money to burn, are building a race car, and want to be able to put a FR sticker on your car so your "friends" can ask you to pop your hood, then get the Full Race. If not, then there are plenty of other choices that will work just as well, but may not look as pretty.

If you have traction bars, and your running the traditional style intercooler you will run into clearance issues. The back door intercooler eliminates that from my experience...

 

wow guys thanks for all the input...i dont know im toren bewteen the two rite now

 

I haven't really looked in depth at either of the kits, so not knowing anything about either one, buy the one that comes with the better management/most tuning options. That's what you should be concerned with anyways.

 

Both kits are awesome and will make similar power with the same turbo. However, the peak boost kit is aLOT cheaper.

 

Their is a company called Mental Addiction Motorsports that is in the development stages for their honda kits.They are doing a 99 SI with a B16 here in a few days.
From what I have seen they are the premire Mazda Protege turbo manufactor and are looking to get into the Honda market.
They post alot over on http://www.msprotege.com


This is this link with a picture of their direct bolt-in MSP manifold.

Wow, one-fab has now been cloned.

 

i ordered a peak boost kit and had absolutely no problems with there service
i have yet to use the kit but everything looks of great quality

vortech fmu
tial 38mm wastegate
tial bovgarret intercooler
garret t3t4
nice looking manifold welds are really well done
3 charge pipes
get a fan with it
3" down pipe

 

Don't spend your hard earned money for an fmu. It's common sense.

 

I don't think they know who one-fab is.Plus it doesn't even look like a one-fab mani.When designing a manifold, their is only a few ways of running tubes.

It looks like they have more than 1 design manifold
