Not to make this a Dezod love fest but they are my choice as well. Proven track record of great kits for awhile now. And they make your car go
and they help you every step of the way!!!

I have recently been trying to pick between Dezod and Turbo Toyotas, and personally I am not a fan of the log style manifold that Dezod uses and more in favor of the Equal Length Manifold that Turbo Toyotas uses. Not saying that one is better than the other, just that I just like the Equal Length Manifold design a whole lot more.

For that reason, if I go turbo, im going with Turbo Toyotas.

<--- 308.5 @ 8.9psi Tuned... Dezod Kit.

I am truly a fan of both kits, I do like TT equal length, but from what I hear, Dezod has its own Race manifold in the works. They are both truly well designed kits and easy installs. Flip a coin!

I just happen to call Paul one day and talk his ear off, literally for about 2 and a half hours, no joke. He will even admit it. We got the ball rolling from there and now look at where i am

I would love to have those numbers. How did you get those numbers? Seems too high...

If you wanna talk numbers, my TT kit hit 320whp at 8psi, but my tuner could not stabelize it. Once we get a new tuner lined up, I'll get new numbers.

That being said, EL manifolds ARE better for peak power then Log style...
That being siad...Dezod is working on an EL manifold, from what I hear.

I have dealt with both companies and both are very helpfull. Dezod is more of a full shop while TT is mostly motor stuff, but Todd can get you whatever else you need as well (gauges, clutch, etc.)

It all comes down to what you want your car to do. TT kits will put out a bit more power and will give you more room to grow if you plan on building your motor down the road. The dezod kit costs a little less (unless you get the BB upgrade) and you cann get it complete with plugs and management, and I think since it has a smaller turbo and log mani it should spool a bit faster.

I'd love to put my tt kit up against a dezod kit, but I don't think there are any in Vegas. There are 2 ZPI kits, a treadstone, a greddy, 1 custom, 2 tt, and apparently 3 more TT kits on the way.

Hey 20: Did you get your Dezod kit in yet? Installed? Tuned? Numbers?
