GTM Performance Engineering: MHI Twin Turbo Official Release

So this is Probably a stupid question but do we lose any comforts with this major upgrade in power? Such as cruise control or SRM still working properly?

You don't lose anything with their Garrett kit, so I'd assume everything still works with this one.

Negative I really want to see it so I can decide if I'm going to put it in or having to wait for an install.

It is really a decision point for me if I am going to get the kit now or save enough fund for a complete install from a shop. I just dont want to get the kit and sit on it. My wife will not let me get spend more than 6k and just let it collecting dust

What's all the hassle about the instructions? It's not going to be that much different from there other kit instructions. Some of the intake piping is different shaped. Don't make it harder than it is.

It should be a hell of a lot easier than the Garrett kit since you're not drilling and tapping the head or upper oil pan.

I don't really think this is gonna be a crazy difficult install. ^^

To be honest, there are gonna be at least a dozen of us probably doing the install at the same time. Maybe we can start a thread in a few weeks where we can post questions about the kit, give tips and hints and whatnot? I think it would be a nice thing to add to and to reference to for the 80+ people doing the install.

Whatcha fellas think?

I'm dreading the headers but aside from that, I'm thinking it's going to be pretty straightforward. I have a couple buddies that offered to help, one of which is a mechanic. So I think I'll be in pretty good shape. I think a thread to share tips and tricks for the install is a great idea

Oh my lord. SEXY!!!!!!!!

Defiantly looks like the flow characteristics are changing for the good.

How many can that machine make a day?

Does that change the design or length of the down pipes? Or is the placement of the mount the same?

I like the HKS to. But why buy another BOV when this kit comes with some. With two different options at that.
