I expected awesome. It's better. The long and short of it is I didn't want to butcher the car so this was the kit.
I'm waiting on pistons and my crank right now on my build. So hang tight for a build thread. I will start one when I'm about done.

I hate to say this..... (not really I love saying it!)

Our TT kit is the Creme de la creme of turbo kits for the 98-02 F body Platform.

No other kit fits as good, no other kit is as ergonomic to the stock configuration and placement of amenities, and no other kit is its EQUAL......

CBR TT F2 kit...........$10,000
Ball bearing turbo upgrade......$1000
Running 9's with the air conditioning on and never over heating in traffic = Priceless!!!

www.modularturbo.com for kit info
1 kit left in stock I don't know if we are going to make any more anytime soon.

Thule, I feel you man! I want this setup bad too. Rob put it right too, "this is the Ferrari of twin turbo kits for fbodys"!!! As much as I really want to go the budget route and make the power, I'm going to wait it out until I can do this setup with a built motor and fegadabotit. I would've already but other things needed attention first, like the MWC 9" going in the car when it's ready this kit with a couple 60mm turbos, built motor, built 6 speed = ultimate fbody street car!

Ultimate street car is correct! The part that most people ignore are the best features. Without having to stand up the radiator and putting a great big hot turbine housing a 1/4 inch away from said radiator and having to put pusher fans in which never work, you have a car that can still be driven in the heat on the street. And you have a/c still! These guys saying they don't mind taking their a/c off are full of it. Some say they only drive it when its not hot, yeah cause it will over heat and they don't like sweat running down the crack of their ***. My car is still like new and is the car I like to put the wife in on a warm summer Saturday night, catch a bite to eat, hit the local cruise-in check out the other hotrods and later see some street action. This sounds like crap if I had sweat running down my back!

You can call josh but you will pay at least as much for a twin kit from him and it WILL require more work to install. And modular turbo has a single front kit as well.

Why the heck would it cost 20K???

taxes or something?

Don't worry about the shipping we can crate it for you and ship it by sea and it wouldn't cost too much
