On3 Turbo Kits Reliability?

[CobraPowered]

Hey guys, my bro purchased a clean, low mileage 96' Saleen S281 Speedster with 32k original miles. We were talkin' adding some boost, and he asked about a turbo kit. I searched and came across the On3 turbo kits. They look well built, but I haven't heard much about them.

Can anyone give me some insight on them? The car is driven on the weekends for a toy. So, not looking for huge power just something fun.

From what i've seen and read they put together a nice affordable kit

I'm considering it as well but with it being a new kit it doesn't have alot of followers yet so I'll wait a little bit

SVTJoe- Thanks for the insight. I'm an import fan (don't hate me) and turbos seem to be more efficient and fun than S/C. That's part of the reason for leaning toward a turbo.

RStang- Im also quesitoning them as well. I think I might wait until this summer when the car really comes out of the garage to worry about it. It just snowed here again this morning and my bro is leaving the car inside for awhile.

they have a good kit for the price, its not a complete kit though, you will still need the things they tell you on his website. the welds are great and fittment is great too. alot people knock on the kit but, they just hate because someone finally built a turbo kit that is somewhat affordable.

Which K member did you use? Did you have much issues with the hotside clamps?

Does anyone have their direct contact info? I have a few questions that I'd like answered but cannot find any email or contact info on their website.
