GTM Twin SC. How to not destroy my car?

ourdelusions · 05-10-2014, 01:46 PM

Due to the MASSIVE DOWNPOUR of negative comment's about GTMs customer support/order times, I am reconsidering. So while I have your attention, what supporting mods would be needed to handle the horsepower gain?

Any reason for me to go Twin Turbo since the GTM twin SCs are out.

I'm looking to have 500-600whp in the next few months and top it off @ 800whp in 6-8 months. So what will I need to get there?

Supercharger
New clutch
Better radiator than what comes with the SC kit.

Do yourself a favor and back out now!!!! There many other Forced Induction options a lot better than gtm so research before you get into something you may not be able to get out of with gtm..

Good luck with your 2018 GTM Twin SC goals.

Why people still consider GTM?

I am building a budget to go FI myself. I have been on the forums for about 2 years, collecting data and making choices.

Take your time, save your money and go for the deal that feels right.

These opinions are just that, opinions. On that note, I will add mine and say stay away from GTM. That is just one massive headache. But that's just me, I like to live my life as headache free as possible. Which is why I do all my own maintenance and installs. And one more opinion, if you really love your car, you would too. Time is always on your side

Opinions do not mean much when it only comes from a couple people out of 100 people. But when the majority have the same opinion, there is something to be concerned about.

Just covering my *** against some of the more "politically correct" people out there. I don't like saying bad things about others, but in this case, you are 100% correct.

GTM is a nightmare for anyone who wants quality

If you know little then boosted performance ftw. Cheapest power per dollar. Easiest install. Easiest maintenance. No bs on customer service. More power than you will need.

VSR out of tampa FL has a turn key which has been out longer than any other turbo kit is another great option..

Im gonna have to Salute FI, Boost performance, and all the other turbo kit manufactures except for some some who used their own money for R&D and didn't give up while others are using people's money for their R&D...
