A GTM TT kit will not make ur car any harder or inconvenient to drive...On monday I came back from ZdayZ in NC. I drove the car through TX, LA, MS, AL, GA and NC. Over 1000miles each way plus another 400miles or so that I drove (pretty hard btw) while I was there... Car also saw several dyno pulls at Z1 while I was in GA..NOT 1 SINGLE ISSUE....

Your supporting mods on the other side could take away from this driveabilty. Overly stiff clutch, loud flywheel, etc etc.

Matt stop telling people to PM me darn it!

How much cost would this save on a TT kit (ball park)

Here are some pictures of the kit that we are installing on an Infiniti IPL here at the shop. For more up to date pictures and updates, like us on Facebook as we are posting lots of various project updates almost daily.

Dear GTM,
Please design/figure some way to eliminate the need to drill and tap the engine block for the exhaust manifold. I mean you guys are able to come up with a twin supercharger setup!!!!! If you can figure a way around the drilling/tapping I will order this kit as soon as its available (please everyone save the future post about this not being a big deal, to me it is).

P.S. also those blacked out intercoolers gave me a chubby!

Actually, that is something that is already in the works. We would like you to know, however, that there is a really big difference between designing/making a new mold for casting and designing/making billet brackets. While billet brackets have a high per unit cost, the upfront capital investment in molds for casting is astronomical in comparison.

That said, here at GTM we are always looking for ways to improve our products and services in all aspects as well as respond to our customers' needs/desires. One example of that is our new 3.5" downpipes we are developing that have the ability to install high flow cats on our turbo kits as some people really want a more environmentally friendly option to make big power. Some people have wanted the factory crash bar to remain with our kits and that is why our latest design incorporates it as you can see below:

The piping is way shorter and more direct. Looking good. So are those Twin oil coolers I see?

One is a oil cooler the other is tranny cooler.

There's a lot of question going threw my head. But Ill hold out. But what numbers are expected? None of those added 100 octane numbers either. lol

This kit would be right up my alley for the track. Fast spooling turbo with just the right amount of power.

I am interested in those intercoolers. I lost my crash bar with the Greddy unit and those look like they fit the bill and will give me back my crash bar...........

Hahaa! If I would have waited a bit longer, I may have gone with either the F.I. kit or the Twin SC. We'll see how the Greddy works out first. I may be interested in making a change in the near to mid future................
