That's the issue. If you look at near the end of the video you can see the phone (and me) literally shaking from the ridiculous amount of noise it put out. When he dropped into 5th gear and floored it there I actually said "holy F*ck" outloud and you can't even hear it despite the fact that I'm holding the damn camera less than a foot from my face.

Fast Intentions Twin Turbo Kit
Well, I couldn't wait any longer. I finally gave Tony a call about the status of the twin turbo kit Fast Intentions has been promising. I've been lurking on this forum for several months wondering when it would be released. I knew he'd been busy over the summer with moving his shop and everything so I didn't want to bother him. BUT, I'm glad I did !! Man, I'm stoked now ! I don't want to give away any specifics, but from talking to him, it sounds like Tony's attention to detail and quality of work is gonna carry over into this kit tenfold to make this the best twin turbo kit on the market!! He said they were trying to get it done by Christmas but looks like it'll be closer to middle of January. I'm betting the wait will be worth it !!!

Just got my shipping confirmation! Cant wait any more! lol...
Props to Tony. He called me last week when he was about to ship my exhaust and said there was a small problem with one of the 12" resonators. He stated that I would most likely not have even noticed any issue if he sent it but he said but it did not pass his "test". He returned it promptly and got me a set of new ones. The set back was only about 6 days. I would much rather wait the 6 days then have someone try to slip something by me and have an issue later.. Appreciate the honesty and a job well done. Thanks Tony.

Don't kid yourself a TT kit for this car done right is going to be a ~bare minimum~ of 10k but probably more. I'm honestly more inclined to save for a R35 than I am to do the forced induction thing with this car.
Don't get me wrong, it's my child but that little VVEL V6 isn't meant to take that kind of abuse.

The intake was already on the car so the 7whp came from the upgraded exhaust, hfcs and tune.
Don't forget the law of diminishing returns for bolt-on mods
