You don't need to build a motor for a twin turbo setup. You just have to pull it for the install.

Here we go again.Point I was making is that you may want more than 450HP at wheels down the road.I was suggesting you think about it.If you are going to go for big HP he will need to build a motor.

Which is appreciated. I learned through my years to start a build with the end in mind. And also at a certain point to be happy with what you have. I built a Volvo from 250 to 350 to 450 to 600 horsepower and went through 4 engines. In the end i sold the car because i was broke and because i made it a monster which wasnt enjoyable to drive for me.

Ill settle with 400-450 at the wheels. Its good for me.

Understood, but I didn't want the OP to think a built motor was a requirement for a TT setup.

Looks like someone was foreseeing the future.

After a lot of research and changing my mind at least 100 times to come to a final conclusion, I pulled the trigger on the AAM stage 2 turbo system.

I have a good experience with EFR turbos in my surrounding and really like the design on this kit. Everything being stainless and the huge potential also appealed to me. I will install the kit myself with the help of my buddy.

Currently i dont foresee a built engine, but my mind might change on this. I will have to do some research on the options there (there probably will be different stages).

This is what my "stage 1" setup will look like. Goal: 550whp/450ftlbs on 102 octane

- AAM stg 2
- 34 row oil cooler
- Zspeed easy street clutch (450lbs)
- CJM fuel return kit
- IDx 1050 injectors
- Aeromotive 340lph pump
- Ecutek tuning

Excited to start this!
