GTM's Garrett kit is also twice the (group buy) price of their MHI kit. It's not an apples to apples comparison.

Words of the wise.

DO the math, both kits have the value built in, both fill their roles VERY nicely. Lets just leave it at that.

I am very excited to see the MHI kit bring TT to the masses, about damned time.

I am very excited to see the FI kit try to take the Garett GTM kit head-on. The consumer is always the winner when parity is brought into the equation.

Not exactly double. And though it might not be apple to apples. It's the point of being FI. For a stock block you can only put down so much making them all comparable. The 20G turbos are very much close to the Garrett's in the way they make power.

Just re-evaluated my finances and after buying/paying for the MHI TT and some accessories (excluding oil cooler, radiator and gauges) I figured out that I won't have cash for the install till after the new year.

Looks like I bit off more than could chew for now. The wife is getting some certifications in her field soon so maybe I will be back on schedule if she can land a job...she might be making more than me soon.

Tell your kids to pay attention in high school.

Go for the DIY and I will gladly lend a hand. No experience in installation, but I have degrees in aerospace and mechanical engineering so I understand the concepts (for the little value that's it worth for installation haha)

Ummmm....you don't know me very well. I have problems with balsa wood airplanes.

LOL

Seriously, I work about 110-125 hours every two weeks and after I get my sleep I might get three days off a pay period. In '05 I did a steroid cycle and I got huge, especially my hands and forearms from using strictly dumbells. Everybody at work jokes about the size of my hands. I'm screwed. My wife would have a better chance of installing it, she built a desk from pieces of wood that I thought was gonna be a train wreck but it turned out pretty damn good.

I'm gonna have to pay someone and that's the best decision I can make...believe me. The wait will suck but it'll be worth it. Maybe things will change if my wife gets a job.
