This picked up 120WHP over factory. I believe the kit was around ~$9000 total if I'm not mistaken. He did have the blower on the car already when he moved down from NY.

I do like the headroom a nice twin turbo set-up gives you over this blower set-up. Much easier to grow.

Thanks for the input, the auto trans always sucks up a little more no doubt. You made pretty darn good power for an auto and AWD! When referring to "Stage 2" with this kit, I am talking about the smaller pulley Stillen offers to increase the boost. The kits target boost was 11PSI, but with the free flowing exhaust he lost some back pressure which translated to a small loss in boost pressure.


Thanks,
