Hello, all!
I'd meant to post this for you last week, but I had some personal issues that set the announcement back a few days.  We're getting caught up now, and wanted to give a bit more info. regarding pricing on the R1K PKG.  As of now, it looks like this:

This is not, obviously, an itemized list of each and every clamp, nut, bolt, hose, etc. included in the kit - but in the interest of responding to our many inquiries, we've decided to put this out.  The usual disclaimer of "not all items included may be listed above, prices subject to change" applies.  I'm sure a number of you will have a ton of questions about this kit, but keep in mind that the forums and PMs are not our primary method of correspondence, and we may not get back to you right away.  If you need immediate answers, send an email to sales@switzerperformanceinnovation.com and Neil, Tym, or I will get back to you ASAP.

Thanks for all the inquires (and patience!), we look forward to hearing from you!!

Ooh standalone!  Nice.  Wonder if they are using Motec?  Sometimes people never do get call backs or answers from you guys though.  Hint hint, been two weeks, hint hint.  Never mind about the manifolds Joe.  If it takes you this long just to return a phone call, I suspect it would take months for a set of manifolds.

You're not far off on what you're posting there, but you are missing a bunch of hardware, software, labor, and R&D.

Im loving your mod list brother. Good stuff!

I would venture to guess labor is up there.  I assume fuel pump upgrade is included as well as valvetrain.  I know JUN valvetrain is $1000 so add that to their cams and you're at $2400.  Maybe add valves and head porting?  Not sure what a built motor really consists of and whether they reuse the stock crank or go for the new stroker cranks.  A lot of variables here that I think would be custom tailored to the customer's needs.  By far not the cheapest but Swtzer stuff never is.  I'm sure it will work well.  I'm installing  my cams right now as we speak.  Uggg.  Not fun.

[TheBOSS]

Does that price include labor to install and tune the whole package?

We're almost always more on the parts and less on the labor, but there is less "custom tailoring" than you might think in our packages.  We got the production approach, developing packages that are reproducible over and over, and making sure that each client leaves with data-logging capability, so every kit out there helps to gather data and support earlier kits, and every earlier kit serves to gather data and support later kits.  This approach has paid off over 50 Switzer GTRs already, and when we found ways to improve our intake plumbing and made changes to the BOVs with TiAL and updated our software tune (all at different times over the past 18 months) all of the early clients got the updates.  That's value, and you just can't get there with a "build it from a catalog" parts combination, I think.

The price quoted above does include engine and trans. labor, as well as dyno time.

[Ev0H8t3r]

I know tis kit kicks ass! seen one up and close...the work is breath taking!

[wwjd]

How much if I wanna upgrade my p800 to this? What's the number on normal gas?

[R35Racer]

labors for the installation and engine build are included in the kit? wow, not bad.

[redlineryder]

That price is pretty good for a built engine, tranny and kit installed and tuned. It's pretty much a 'bolt-on' 1000hp kit you're offering.

[celsius]

Sounds like a MONSTER kit!!   Can we see pics of the turbo manifold and turbos?
