What you would get is a Cheap system Terry is or was a GREAT rider, BUT his turbo systems leave alot to desire as far as streetable systems go.

I'm in the process now. Steps will be install stand alone computer. Install 65lb injectors. Install Walbro fuel pump. Map the computer for less than boost running. Fab header. Install GT40. Modify plenum to hold boost. Map for 15 psi boost. With stock ignition. Install MC-4 with coils. Map to 20 psi boost. Install water/methonal injection. Map to 30 psi. You can keep up with it @ 2wheelengr.com

ZXBob...............The problem with Terry's kits is a deep running problem. They're fine for drag racing, but
1st...........Cheap materials are used (for sake of low cost and higher proffit)
2nd......... He's behind BAD in turbo selection
When you look at the quality of materials used by a company like NLR in their header pipe alone you'll see the difference. Thick flanges and heavy wall tubing last forever and never cracks from extreme heat. Top of the line boost controls and engine management systems aren't just nice they're required if you intend to use the boost for more than a couple of seconds. Boost Creep is more than a feeling you get at a scary movie.. Cutting edge turbos that pump more air at less boost allow you to make more power safely. Outdated turbo designs are cheap and require higher boost levels to produce power. High boost levels mean HUGE heat problems.
There are many people making kits, but only a few doing it the right way.
And any guy that tells people that they don't need rods in their motor BUT has them in all his own motors has got to be hiding something.

It looks like its gonna be hard to build a kit for the 14 because of the frame, where can they place the plenum?

The airbox is the plenum. You seal it up so it will handle boost.
