It has been over a year ago that ATS had the website redesigned.

Even though the IDI turbo was listed in the links, the link took you to a Power Stroke turbo.

Some of the Power Stroke links took you to Cummins parts.

I have not had any communication with them for a while, but they did say they would be fixing the links.

I looked for a while, nothing changed so I stopped looking.

I saw that same issue, I was wondering how well the hypermax Pulse system worked, I've never really heard anything about them.

im sure it does well, those dual runners to feed the turbo, great flow. just a lotta money to spend. id rather buy a used kit off ebay and rebuild the turbo.

The way Hypermax runs those dual runners looks like a lot of heat loss to me.

Nice system, just to much pipe before the turbo.

i think the opposite. the exhaust up pipes run from the manifold straight up to the turbo, heat transfer is minimal compared to the down and across that the ats kit has.

Ceramic coat the pipes and keep the heat in.

Back to the original post,...ATS was the suppler of the Ford Factory IDI Turbo Diesels back in 93 and 94,...They were an ATS Turbo Kit that had "Ford" on the intake, instead of ATS.
