Like I said, the perks of this kit is
- full exhaust
- DW 600cc injectors
- ECU

Im still undecided.
Same guy

If I had a Greddy TT Kit and my Z was totalled by my insurance company (even though it was only a bumper, fender, hood, and light that needed replacing).............I still wouldn't sell it. I would just look for another Z, because it's easier to replace the Z than the kit/intercooler. If that is Phunk's Kit, then buy it with confidence. If not, you may want to really check it out first.

1. I had to have my TT-TDX done up with flanges to mate up with the Greddy DPs
2. 600cc injectors are not enough to even get those turbos in there efficiency range
3. ECU? Why not UPREV?

Note: It is really frustrating to have your car get totalled and you weren't even in the same Country!

Correct me if I'm wrong but most dual inlet dual outlet Fmic should work fine.

I'm pulling the trigger on the TT kit. Talked him down to $3800.
Complete kit, just missing FMiC.
ECU is protuned by forged performance
Full exhaust
DW 600cc injectors.

Turbos have zero shaft play.
He is polishing all the piping and hot tanking the GReddy oil pan

Seller also is local and has discount pricing he will give me on aftermarket parts I may need.

Also willing to let me use his shop so I can do the work for cheap. Or I can basically pay his guys whatever we agree upon for them to do it.

Not to mention it's not so simple to just swap ecus like that. There's many different revisions. Are you sure you have the same ROM he does?

Many dual inlet dual outlet Fmic will suffice. Such as a spearco turbonetics Fmic.

I am not solely relying on the flashed Ecu. He has the ability to tune the car. I'm prepared to throw money at the car after buying the kit.
