Default Re: BEGi Turbo Kit information/discussion thread

So I see alot of you saying Begi won't make money on this. What is this based on? Where are the facts to support this asumption? Here are a few things to consider, he knew there would be no big volume sales going into this, He had knowledge the tune wouldn't be easy, he got information from exeperienced forum members and talked to Kleemann beforehand. On his site he sells kits that range in price from $1618.00 to $3999.00. The expensive one has a Garrett Turbo and a header style exhaust manifold. Expensive items. I don't think he is selling any of these for a loss. The Chinacharger T.28 that is going to be on ours he sells for $350.00 his cost I don't know. As far as a intercooler, couple hundred bucks, maybe.
Piping and misc. fittings he buys in bulk. He knew in pennies what the parts were worth, he has built enough of them to know.
Lots of you seem to have known this would take longer than the quoted time, why didn't you Psychics share this info with the rest of us? Would I have gone in if I knew it would take this long? Don't know , I'm not Psychic
I want my turbo and I want it now...
