Default DD tc-t recommendations...

sorry for the abbreviations, but didnt need a 5-page title..anyways.....

i have an 06, auto tc...plan on going turbo sometime soon

i would like some recommendations on kits to go with, and if some of u auto tct guys are still out there, any major problems with install or running it

the car will be a daily driver, and probably have a decent amount of miles on it

i would go TRD s/c, but then i would want more...so i'd get a pulley...then more...so i'd get another pulley, e-manage, bigger injectors...then more....

so i figure just go around that route...besides, its not that much more expensive this way

I was looking into the Dezod auto kit-already spoke with them, really like these guys from what i have heard, didn't know what other companies offered options that fit the auto's


Thanks guys...still new to this FI scene, trying to learn b4 i buy...

The Greddy Turbo Kit fits automatic's, its the best bang for the buck. Comfirmed fitment was done this week. Contact TPDracing on here for the best price. Same price as the S/C and you will have more power.

Boost spikes happen on almost every kit. Ive heard it happening with the Turbonetics and many custom kits. It happens when you have a full exhaust.

The Turbonetics kit is a complete turn key system in a box that should more then suite your DD needs.
