I always pass by your avatar and stare at your car. You got very lucky coming across such good mods. Reason I asked is because Ive got a set of gt3 wheels like yours (except orange) that I plan on putting on my car, now I know I will be doing it for sure

Yeah, thanks. Post some pictures when you get them installed. You might have to get a new set of tires also. What color is your car?

It is a single turbocharger. I haven't had the opportunity to stick her on a dyno yet. TPC makes a majority of the pieces on the kit and their kits make power all over the board.


The hose clamps are already off the car. That was a show I refused to miss this year haha so that was a temporary solution. I have the whole exhaust system at a fab shop right now getting welded where the exhaust clamps are at, and getting hangers made. After that all of the piping goes to get ceramic coated.
