All i have to say by now is that Scott and Mazsport and offcourse Betsey made a fantastic job...I m really impressed with the quality cause i had the greddy turbo before couple of years and damn that quality was very bad...Mazsport is top..
I m sure i ll get over 400whp with this kit..All i have to do is wait 2months to get my car finished and then engine baby!!!!THANKS SCOTT THANKS MAZSPORT

Just call Betsey every day to ask questions..........
I would suggest laying everything out and getting to know your parts. I know you guys that buy turbo kits are always kissing your turbos before bed and all of that crazy boy excitement stuff.
This is not a complex kit, it is a complete kit. And yes, there are a lot of parts, but it shouldnt be overwhelming.
Take some time to review the tubes and the pics on line. Get your couplers sorted and your air filter with the right tubes and you can put those couplers on the tubes so that is ready to go.
The motor mounts take about 30 minutes to install with jackstands and are easy to figure out as well.
I would strongly advise you to watch the installation video for the Interceptor EMS. It is on our website under the multimedia page. The software it uses has a free download there as well and should be installed on your laptop. Spend some time learning how the software works and that install should take about an hour. There are a lot of features that your Interceptor has that flashes or other Engine Management systems dont provide. Learn how to use the security system, the rev cut for valet or when someone else drives your car, and the other options that are available.
The fuel pump install (send us your core back please for credit) and the fuel injector install are a bit more difficult. I would recommend having a professional install this for you if you do not have previous experience with fuel systems. (IMO)
The fuel system alone will take a good day or two to install.
The intercooler is a cake walk. Just decide on whether you keep the bumper bar or not. It will fit either way.
I dont know if you are installing the kit yourself, but there is really a beauty to being able to install the parts onto your car yourself. You will know how everything works and is fitted.
The type 3 kit is nice for the fact that you can monitor a lot of the components (especially the turbo) without needing a lift and the rest is well, up to you.
Please feel free to email me with any questions you have during the installation. I encourage you to install some if not all of the components yourself.

Beautiful engine bay shot :-)
Blue monster,that is an amazing engine bay shot!!.Mazsport has a good thing going,nicely put togther package all the right pcs....BUT as with most shops with custom kits,it takes forever to duplicate the kit.In the meantime any of us that had the money sitting in the bank and wanting to order the kit have become leary.
Unfortunately no matter how beautiful or how a kit performs getting a bad name for long deliveries,and partial kit shippments will kill alot of sales.
I personally almost placed an order for the stage 3 kit,but serveral memembers told me to hold off and wait till Mazsport got organized...that was 5months ago.
I will buy the kit,the moment i know its on the shelf ready to be shipped.As i said the web can make or hurt a solid company in a heart beat.Scott and his crew have done an amazing job with this kits fabrication and design.I do hope people will forget the issues and bitching when a shippable kit is ready when an order comes in
Good luck with your dyno,the wait will be erased once the smile is across your face
and the assend of your car sliding in smoke

I prefer to relocate the battery altogether personally, some folks don't so we build our kits with that in mind. We have supplied customers with relocation kits, when ordering your kit just ask and we can provide the required components for the relocation. Thanks,Scott
