LMFAO, I'm going to have to frame that and put it in my window once my build is complete.


Also don't think you can buy all the internals and just slap them together without proper knowledge of how to or pay to have it balanced, tolerances check and adjusted, torqued and machine work done.

Tuning for power instead of reliability = FAIL

Who installed yours? Lets break it down, my kit cost $4900 shipped. (at least I think that was the price) received it the MAF flange was welded sideways, all the IC pipes were short, I ask TT about including a pre-tapped oil pan at an extra price that I did not receive. My manifold was at the coater's for over a month and funny thing is its not coated! Intercooler had metal shavings in it, DP did not bolt to the turbo, turbo did not include any gaskets, wastegate had a tear in the diaphragm (his fault cause I had the WG spring changed by him) and I had to pay $1500 to get everything to fit correctly for a bolt on kit. So as stated TT Kit = FAIL!

i installed mine. not gonna argue for todd on the business side of things cause i would be fighting a loosing battle. but as far as my kit goes, i've had it for a few years now and its as good as it ever was. fitment was fine. i guess i must be one of the lucky ones. eventually i will be going with a dezod manifold, DP, and gt35r hta. that is if i can make it work with the tial v-band housing.

Maybe it was cause I had the GT35R kit from him, I don't know but it wasn't a "bolt on kit".
