I was thinking of acquiring this kit and i currently run the 2.5 descendent exhaust so I think I'd be ok with the exhaust and not having to upgrade it. I was wondering if I had to use the cai that you have installed on all youre kits since i'm running a K&N cai typhoon right now. Also does your shop do installs like on chicop's car? I would prefer to do that if at all possible, where is your shop located?

Doesn't the turbo replace intake and headers?? Which makes it pointless to buy them if you're gonna boost?

You can run the Descendant exhaust if you wanted to, sure.

You must sell your CAI as it can not be installed with our kit.

We can do full install and tune here in Buffalo, NY.

So long as it's an OE replacement from the s-pipe back or axle back, yes.

I live in an area that tends to flood quite often and can pool ontop of the pavement alot of times so I was trying to avoid the cai that went into the wheel well to avoid hydo locking. Thats the reason I went with the K&N. And I'm new to the boosting scene and the pictures don't really show much so to me it looked like the air intake was the same on all of them and that it would fit just fine with the cai i have.

Your CAI will not be used with any turbo system.

I'm running that exhaust with the dezod kit and it fits perfect. Not to mention the tone you get with that turbo.

Hey thanks Paul! you guys have an amazing kit I must say!
Yes we did heat wrap the manifold and downpipe. this was before i saw you mention in another thread that it can be hard on the welds. With that being said it may be coming off. although it does look really good IMO, i dont want to be ordering a new one anytime soon.

Purchased a turbo kit for my manual tC2. A buddy of mine owns a shop here in town and did the install for me. I'm usually down for doing the mods myself, but wanted a professional to do this on, since it's pretty serious stuff. We did the tune this week and I'm thoroughly impressed with the product and results!





The "RELEASE THE KRAKEN" shot...




My numbers are with a stock exhaust, so I'm hoping that after I get the 3" exhaust from Dezod and an updated tune, I'll get to be one of the cool kids in the 300+ club

The kit came with everything you need to get it going. I did pick up an AEM boost gauge and wideband as well.

I've never done something this drastic to any of my cars before, but I'm glad I decided to rock the Dezod product. Paul has been a badass with his help and guidance for me as I venture off into the world of forced induction.

I'm impressed with how well put together everything is as well, though it shouldn't be such a surprise, since I had the green header from them and it was just as solid.

Big thanks to you, Paul, and the rest of the staff at Dezod. The service and products you provide are second to none!!
Are you running an after-market clutch? if so, which one? I'm burning through my stock clutch pretty quick.
