No offense but I would not buy that YSi from Prddad12. He has been a member since 3/28 of this year and all his posts are trying to sell the YSi.

It could be legit but it seems shady to me.

Everything I have seen with any turbo kit is that some modifications will have to be made to get it to fit. If you have the tools, common sense, ability to follow directions, mechanical ability, beer, and time then I think you will be fine. There is a lot people say they swap out of the On3 kit.

Most have not had luck or longevity from the On3 turbos, BOVs, or the wastegates.

If you can do most of the work yourself but tow the car to a shop to finish it up, I would go CG Fab.

I’d plan on budgeting for better wastegates and BOVs right from the start at the very least. And do not be surprised if the turbo craps out quickly.

I know people have had luck with their stuff. A buddy made 600ish on a 2V with a single setup.

Others have bought their stuff then turned around and bought CG Fab.

I've had my Coyote ON3 twin turbo kit for almost 2 years now. Had fitment issues with the drivers side downpipe, but other than that, dead reliable.
Turbo's have no shaft play, waste gates and BOV still work perfect.

How do you like the twin kit ? I am in a pickle about getting the single or going twins for the little extra

I am not certain but I do not believe you can keep the sway bar with a twin On3 Kit. Something to think about. Hopefully somebody that knows for certain can chime in.

The only thing I don't like about it is how so many hot parts are crammed next to wires on the passenger side, and how you need to relocate the fuse box and ecu. I had to heat wrap everything. But if I installed it again, I would route some of the wires near the ex manifold differently.

Other than that, no compromises. Still have the front sway bar, still have A/C.. Quick spool, Turbos start hitting hard around 3500rpm or earlier.

As I said this is for the Coyote mustang, I don't know anything about the 2v kit.
