Since it's raining today, maybe it won't get washed out. I really wanted to go this time, but I've got to work the second job Friday.

Which way should I go...... Fast intentions or the cheap gtm kit with the turbos that are mid grade turbos?

If I go FI then the car will get a custom quad exhaust for the zele kit. Which will cost a ton...my guess is around $15k+ or the gtm which will run around $10k total.

FI. The quality, the support, the end product, the scalability.

I work with MHI components on a daily basis. You DO NOT want to be a part of that **** storm when they put 100+ of those kits on the road and try to support the problems with "GTM Customer Service."

I've looked around and talked with some subbie guys and they all told me to avoid that brand of turbo.

Oh trust me. With the transporting it out to them it will run me around $800. Plus $1300 for a clutch, $1000 in gauges, the custom quad exhaust and other fun items. It will be around $17k is my best guess.

And completely worth it! I have a running total of just over $13.5k for the turbo setup (kit, gauges, clutch, tune, etc...) and exhaust.
