Vivid Racing 825hp kit

Dan from vivid hooked up this incredible kit for a killer deal. I had the kit installed and tested at Car Nutz Customz here in Bellevue, WA. It took a few attempts to get it right but it came out perfect. Thanks to Dan and Car Nutz for working together to make this beast of a kit flawless for my car. I'll put up install and finished pictures later this week and will post some numbers when I have time to get out to the track.
Here is a pic of the kit pre-install.

love the flat blue car, have you got it running in the 10s yet? I saw a video on you tube it didn't seem to be running that strong., maybe poor driving?

Yes poor driving . Dont worry, we will be rocketing past the 200mph mark at the Texas Mile and will get some new drag runs the 29th to solidify the kit and not my crap driving.

I try

There is another 6speeder that installed the kit from Kuwait. He is fixing his Boost Controller setup and should have some pics too.

Not its a tip. We did the EVOMS TCU upgrade on it. I have a kit ready to go, let me know if you want it.

Do you have a dyno with a baseline overlaid? I looked at the one on your site but it is lacking AFR and PSI, it shows 7.4 and .2 respectively?

What is the advantage of replacing the VTG turbos? Let alone billet cartridge VTG's? The GT3076 is susceptible to compressor surge where and the VTG's less so, and the efficiency map is inherently larger for VTG design . Aren't you also loosing the higher torque/boost pressure at low RPM's and inducing lag and possibility for boost creep?

Adding additional components such as boost controller, wastegates, fittings, lines, ect. just seems like the wrong direction. IMHO it seems like you would be taking a step backwards by removing VTG's, unless you are building a quarter mile car with a narrow power band.
