Toss up between Fast Intensions TT or BP kit, i dunno which to choose
 
I like what both companies bring to the table but i am not sure at what setup i wanna run. Im not looking for crazy hp, looking into the 550whp-600whp max since it will be a stock engine......for now. Some advice and opinions would be greatly appreciated.

How many miles do you have on the '10 ?

More importantly, how much cash do you have to throw at a turbo kit and how much will you have left over when something goes wrong?

Gotta go with what u like and what ur wallet can handle. BP kit is by faaaar the cheaper route with the same end results. Maintenance is cheaper. If u wanna go back to NA it's a lot easier as well with BP.
FI is the top for twin turbos. The kit is amazing. The price reflects the hard work that went into making the kit. Also with any TT setup, the labor will be a lot more costly.
Both are proven kits. Plenty info out there on them.

He only makes a few at a time (Sasha). If you can be one of the quick few then you're golden.

i plan on taking out a loan for the kit and i have some cash stashed for just in case of an emergency. I like them both and i wasn't leaning toward one or the other.

DasBurkey 05-16-2014 03:17 PM

i have plenty of time to get one and in no rush and i have been reading all that i can about each one extensively but i just dont know which one jus yet. i stalk the forums every day about both kits

same end results? not even close honestly. The FI kit is making tons more power and torque much much sooner than the BP kit and at less boost pressure...

to give an example...just looking at graphs both companies have posted on here...

FI 9.7 psi 3K rpm ---- 210rwhp 360rwtq
BP 12psi 3K rpm ---- 130rwhp 230rwtq

FI 9.7 psi 4Krpm ---- 335rwhp 435rwtq
BP 12 psi 4Krpm ---- 285rwhp 370rwhp

Also add supporting mods with whatever kit you choose but damn that's one heck of a loan :eekdance:

Not knocking your findings, but E85 plays a huge role as well as ign timing. I've never seen a BP hail Mary run, I've seen like 5 F.I. hail Mary runs. Yes F.I.' kit will spool quicker, but not what you're making it out to be.
