Man oh man where do I begin... Read Z owners! There are cheaper ways to make power. The Stage 2 SC is the cheaper way if you are supercharging. I bought this because the long tube header clearance issues with a low mounted SC. If you are running stock or shorties, there are cheaper ways. Remember GTM sells their Garret TT kits and the MHI kit. No need to ask about a competing vendor on this thread. Chili, unless you plan on pushing serious power, you don't need a built motor. If you are looking for torque, go TT's, if you are looking for response, get a SC unless you don't mind waiting for the half second it takes (maybe less) for the turbos to spin. If you are looking for instant torque and response, sorry, there is no twin screw or roots blower options here.

wish someone would make one...... and make some kind of low profile blower that could sit under a ram air style hood so it doesnt have a giant stupid looking blower intake sitting in the way of what i usually need to see while driving :P wasnt tryin to jack the thread, sorry about that. its just that this is a big choice, i dont have an EXTRA 10g to press the reset button if i **** up the first time. normally, i want response. and normally i dont consider turbos..... but DAMN already over 450rwhp at 3k rpm..... if thats what you call turbo lag? i will take it. not to mention its not using the usual 9587645976 PSI required for a typical TT to produce big power that early so my engine wont explode after 50k miles. clean oem look....... ok i will stop now.

although ive been following this thread for like..... EVER. since the last guy wimped out when his car didnt make big *** power on its very first dyno run and put it back to stock..... that was a good half a year wasted waiting to see some damn results. one would EXPECT this kit to go far and above what a single sc, and maybe even what their stage 2 TT can do for how much it costs, and how complex the installation is. but we shall see. believe it or not, im actually rooting for this thing to be the next sliced bread 2.0.
