This SC has given me nothing but stress and problems.

Only thing I have to pay for is:
- Upper Manifold OEM
- Welding for downpipes
- Labor to install it
- Shipping to ship all my a2a kit + crappy blower in condition it currently is in to Husam

I am going to trade him my entire a2a kit for his entire twin turbo kit

It will make the power I'm currently looking for, just need to limit the Torque through tuning / boost controller which is fine, at least until I upgrade my transmission to RJM in the future.

Sorry guys, thanks to that guy screwing me over, I choose to opt out of the SC game -- it's causing me too many problems, literally endless. making it not worth it in the long run

I'm going to fly Husam out to my area and have him and one or two other people work on my car for the twin turbo install, then fly him back.
At least, that's my plan.


EDIT #2:

I bought / will need to buy:

- AAM Oil Pan Spacer
- Upgraded Motor Mount
- OEM Upper Manifold
- Custom piping weld labor to fit these GTR turbos
- GTR Turbo blow off valves (2 of them)
- Labor for proper installation

Total: ~$1500 I am estimating. Not bad for swapping over to the GTR turbos. Better than buying another blower and having issues. I think by now I am convinced that I am cursed for using superchargers
That's the only things I need to pay for to have this kit installed.
Sorry to hear about the **** that guy put you through

But on the silver lining side I am super excited to see another GTR twins kit out there! Husam is good peoples and won't steer you wrong.

Thanks man. Yeah, for sure. He and Eugene are friends, and both of them are people who defs I can trust in taking care of the car.

Also my other friend who also is a personal friend of Husams will be helping as well.

It will definitely be taken care of.
Two people who know the kit inside out and who have done the install, and one person who will be tuning it and help with the build if he wants to as well since it most likely will be at the tuners shop as per his idea if hes still down with it, otherwise... it will be at my house without a lift lol

Definitely agree with you sir!

No lift = Life sucks, can't agree more lol.

And yup, I will definitely get a boost controller and limit it to 10 - 12 psi max until I get the RJM fully built transmission! haha.
