Stefan, as much as I'd love to see a kit for this myself, take a look at the install photos. They had to cut a hole behind the driver's pedals to accomodate turbo plumbing, and weld on replacement metal. Not impossible, but not simple, either. Also, the intake manifold is totally custom and obviously involved an incredible amount of work. I'm not sure that can be efficiently recreated. Todd will hopefully chime in on this, but I'm pretty sure this will be one-of-a-kind.

This looks IN-SANE! What a great work, and I really like the car looks pretty much stock on the outside.
Guess he does not have to worry about cold feet, with that big turbo under the pedals :-)

Courtshark,
fully understood upfront - there is a lot of additional work involved - no problem here.
I initially thought about a kit involving as many hard parts as possible (tbd) and guidance documentation.
Cheers

Do you know which sensor you are using? Was it a Siemens YL5A-9C044-AA ? Are you using a dual return line on this car? The reason I ask is that as far as I know, this sensor is to be installed on the return side. The volume of fuel you need to push 800+ HP on E85 is immense and this sensor only has a #6 inlet. I would think that it would possibly act as a restriction if it was the only return path to tank and cause pressure creep. Sorry for all the questions but I'm in the process of building a flex fuel turbo 928. Nothing as extreme as what you built but Im eager to learn from others experience so that I don't unecessarily replicate a problem that someone else has already solved. Thanks
