Sorta new to forced induction. Assuming I already have the fast intentions TDX and hi-flow cats - other than yanking off my stillen G3 and getting the car re-tuned, what else would I need to install these assuming price isn't an object...?

pretty sure tony is offering a turn key and a tuner option.

turn key kits typically come with bigger injectors, fuel pump, tune, and maybe a couple extras just to make a complete kit.

tuner kit is usually just the turbo kit (turbos, piping, intercooler, hardware) and then it is up to end user to pick what size injectors, fuel pump, etc.. you want to fit the kit to your own specs. since stage 2 kit and produce a lot of power with bigger injectors etc..

other than the typical extras the other options is getting a oil cooler is almost a must.

also if you have a 7AT then a transmission cooler is a good buy. if you want big power on a AT as well the GTM stage 4 tranny upgrade is a good option to handle alot of HP and TQ.

I'm very curious to see what the intercooler and pipe routing setup looks like, whether the crash bar is retained, and of course the cost.

Yes, one of the primary reasons I went with the GTM TT (before this kit was even released).

All depends on what kind of gauges u go with. The HKS camp 2 is expensive but there are other options as well that cost far less.

I just went with standard Defi gauges. The expense is in the proper install since it requires removing the whole dash.

And the fact that along with a 300-400 dollar controller each gauge is nearly 300 dollars each.

You can get electronic stand alone gauges for around 60-70 each.

But back on topic, can't wait to see some more of the custom hardware for this kit. Should be pretty sweet.

Update,

We are finishing up the polishing process of all of the innercooler tubing. Everything is going back on the car very shortly and I will be posting pictures of a "fully assembled kit" as promised.

I will be back shortly...

Thank you, Tony

The standard DEFI gauges do not need a controller I have them in the stock location and they look great.
