i think the kit your talking about is the turbo tech hotparts, and they fab up the cold side with an air to air intercooler, vrs the a2w on the tti race kit.

Their Shop car is NOT a TT car, it is an 88mm single turbo according to their website.

Thanks for all the input guys.. i did notice that their kits are a little more expensive and not everything is included, but their reputation and power levels speak for themselves.. I would personally rather wait and spend an extra grand or so if they are that much better... I am in no way knocking anyone else's kits out there, I am quite impressed with alot of companies that i have read about, but the concensus from this thread is that Speed Inc makes a ton of power.

The Speed Inc. Eliminator is proven, they have built easily ten cars with that setup. I know a few of the guys. The shop car has a one-off 88mm setup. Jim and Dan at Speed Inc. will do my custom turbo setup soon.

TTi is a company, not a twin turbo kit. Turbo Technology Inc. as MM said. The Eliminator kit that Speed Inc sells is basically the TTi Race Kit with a A2A FMIC instead of the A2W that comes with the kit. It doesn't keep the A/C but does retain heat and power steering.

Speed inc is gonna be doing my custom GTB 91 set up as well. They do very nice work and are very helpful. Tom will answer any questions you have and in the most timely manner I've ever seen from a company. Their kits are expensive because they use the best parts. No log style headers or any shortcuts.

Speed Inc Eliminator car here and id say it made pretty damn good power.
Havent had a chance to track it yet though. Had a few minor probs earlier but got em sorted out fairly easily for the most part i think. Just gotta get a new slave or master cylinder for the clutch cuz i think 1 of em's on a vacation
