Is your supplemental window washer reservoir included with the turbo kit? If not, how much does it cost?

I understand that the MHI turbo kit is the least intrusive with regard to installation (which I definitely appreciate). Besides the windshield washer reservoir, are there any other factory components that need to be relocated?

Our 3" downpipes will not fit the Greddy kit since they use their own specific turbine housing.

The windshield washer reservoir will be included in the MHI kit. As far as relocating other components, there may be a couple minor things that need to be shuffled around in the engine bay to make a little room, but they will not be modified or deleted and we will provide any necessary brackets to mount them elsewhere.

That depends on which turbos you want and what the price is at the time you are looking to purchase them. Garrett raises their prices every year but we've been absorbing a lot of the price increases in our Garrett kits over the last few years.

Also, I asked about the 3" downpipes earlier. I am looking to replace the ones that we included with my Greddy kit. If it is a complicated situation, I will just explore the alternative with AAM, Zerolift, and or UPREV.
The washer reservoir on our website does not include a bracket since people generally mount it wherever they see fit to accommodate other mods that they may have done as well as personal preference.

1. This kit, like our Garret based kit, can be used with the stock exhaust. Will you make big power with the stock exhaust? Not really since it does present a big restriction, but it will still be a whole heck of a lot faster even with the bottleneck. For optimum power, a full 3" exhaust is the way to go.

2. Correct, the Turn-Key kit can be installed and the ECU flashed with our tune. The only reason to go with a custom tune would be to extract even more power since our tunes are on the conservative side to ensure maximum safety and reliability without neutering the power.

1. No.
2. Don't really know what you're asking. If you reflashed the ECU you are now running a "secondary" tune.

he's asking if he would still need to go and get tuned somewhere, which is a fair question. the answer is no and yes. you really don't need another tune if everything looks good with the data logging. Sams tunes are pretty damn close on the first try, you do data logging and Sam will tweak it from there if necessary. With that said, if you can afford it getting a professional dyno tune from a competent uprev tuner is not a bad idea at all.

I big deal but I had to relocate the drivers side horn since there was no room for it in the stock location with the intercooler piping.. Lets hope Pablo from GTM will write up the instructions and take pictures for their new TT kit this time around. (hint hint)
