I just love the fact the BP kit is so DIY friendly...the FI kit looks like pulling the engine for the install would be easier than trying to do it with the engine in the engine bay

DIYing a TT kit, although possible, would be a mountain of an undertaking. With the limited space I wouldn't feel completely comfortable I got everything installed properly without pulling the motor. Tony's kit is fantastic and I have nothing bad to say about it but I wasn't in the market for it because I didn't want to pay someone else to install it. You are always going to have pro's and con's for any FI setup. Some things TT does better and some things Twin Scroll Single does better. |

I have a small request for you sir. If you ever do any in car vids can you do one in 2nd gear from 10 mph to 6k rpm? I'm just curious to see if it's quite noticeable when the turbo spools or if it's very linear. My wrx drove me insane with the slingshot like acceleration through corners :/

Is there an installation pdf file available for this V 2.0 kit? I would like to read it a few times. Ok ok, I confess, I was only going to look at the pictures over and over again until the bottom corner wear out from excessive page flipping. Yes, such things are possible on pdf files if you do it enough times.

Keep in mind that the dyno graph is essentially a tuners signature....so for comparison here is another...and please note that 10psi of boost is reached at 3,500rpm. So if the boost pressure is there, and the power torque is not (when comparing kits) then it is a timing/tuner thing:
Hope that helps. Also, I do not have any "shop" dyno runs. All these are from customer and tuners from around North America. As for the install, the V 2.0 is easier to install than the original V 1. The V 1.5 is the same when it comes to the install as the V 2.0.

That's the exact information I was looking for. The above dyno is exactly what I would want out of the kit. Now it's time to start saving money for it! Haha Thanks for the info sasha.

Will be picking them up tomorrow morning. Not sure why it took this long...usually the turnaround time is much quicker than this.

Finally:
Will be packing them up this weekend, so if you are looking to make the switch to the V 1.5, please let me know. As mentioned before, the upgrade will include the following items: New turbo to FMIC pipes New turbo compressor cover New air filter New thermostatic sandwich plate New OEM (Mobil) oil filter One new oil line One new 90 degree silicone coupler (others are re-used) One turbine inlet gasket (the turbo has to be removed for the switch)

Yup, that sums it up. There is a slight increase in flow as well since this conversion eliminates the elbow on the compressor outlet.
