Let me ask you a question Jean, Mark or whoever.. Why couldnt someone just do the GT35R's or a Garrett turbo with tuning and so on insteadof K24 hybrids, does it get into replacing EVERYTHING (piping, intercooler, internals +) ?! Just wondered that! I figure it would be tremendous amount of lag without the proper setup to accomodate the larger turbo's!

to answer ur question.. yes u can do it. the lines all fit.. just do the water cooling.. no biggy.
On a stock motor I would throw on gt30rs and be doen with it. custom headers and exhaust would run only $3500 and the turbos are $1100 each...

Haha, thanks for responding now 
jk!
No i was just wondering , because i see when people do GT35r/40r or whatever its always a monsterous project and setup. I was just wondering why people dont do a GT series turbo instead of a k16/24 hybrid, and if alot of extra work had to be done to accomodate it.

Martin, most TT owners like to keep everything as stock as possible... so when they sell the car... its not a problem.
when u use kkk housings... u still retail the appearance of a stock set up( at the dealer).... so companies liek Evoms do use garrett internals on their GT series tuning kits... ist just not a full blown garrett.
ist not as hard as it seems... actually my evo8 tuner said its a walk in the park... ist all right there and the exhaust is a no brainer...
