Default Turbo Technology References Please

I'm in the market for a turbo and close to buying a TTi LS3 Camaro kit .
Have any of you had experience with the company ? Are they reputable ?

turbo technology is a quality company, been around for many years. Many 700-1000hp cars are running the tti kit for the C5. I had a chance to see the 1st 5th gen camaro kit getting fabbed up last summer and it's a work of art.

Mighty Mouse runs a 4th gen race kit, Chris Stewart runs a twin kit on his C5, totally stock motor 717rwhp. A handful of guys that aren't on the forum making 800+

Mightymouse has their kit and was one of the first guys running single digits with it. They were pretty much the only game in town before KYTP and they were there before the OFI fiasco.

They have been around a long time before most companies and are still here after many places have folded.

I would trust their kit.

I didn't see an LS3 kit on their site is it something you called them about?

TTi makes a great kit for the 5th gen's. Precision turbos, Precision Wastegates, Aluminum cold side, S10 304L SS "headers", and what looks to be a great sized/efficient intercooler. My intercooler comment is total opinion because I have no real world experience with that particular unit. Also, I don't have any dyno numbers/track times but it looks great. Hardware placement, oiling, intake system... It all seems very well thought out and executed.

I can tell you, TTi seems to be a great Turbo company. How many have come and gone, stealing money and inflicting heartache...

They will treat you right, they wouldn't be in business for soooooo long if the constantly f*cked people.

they are local to me. quality is second to none. they were pioneers in the turbo 5.0 kits. if you think their kits are hot you should walk in the shop sometime. always full of custom work. the owner is a racer and always willing to talk. he personally welds all the kits himself. if you can afford it. you will not have a problem with it

My car is at their shop right now. Just getting some more upgrades, already had there turbo system installed. I wouldn't think twice about doing it again.

I make a thread about my one off setup and mention I can duplicated it since someone asked and it gets closed and deleted for "Non sponsor pimping".

TTi is a great company however they're not a sponsor and never have been
I don't think it's pimping a non sponsor, someone asked about a company and their reputation, if we started posting information and prices specific to their kits I would agree. I like these threads because it gives the sponsors a chance to speak up if they have a product that competes and like it to be considered.

Years ago TTI was a sponsor, I can't speak for them but it used to get really ugly with the guys waiting for the Dave Inall Incon kits piping in.

TTi is a top tier company. Their product is all quality stuff and as stated before they stand by their work and products. They are very reasonably priced and produce "The" most quality kit for C5 Corvettes. There have been a lot of fly by night companies that put out Turbo kits the vast majority of which are no longer in business.

Don't think twice about going to them or using their products.

I am obviously a very satisfied TTi customer.

there you go, we have a sponsor connection. Buy a TTI kit while supporting a sponsor.
