Which turbo kit for a C6? Now with 4 different choices for turbo kits out there I'm wondering which one you like the best. APS, TTI, STS, or the HP Performance.
APS seems like it would be the best at keeping temps reasonable since the turbos are smaller and the twin intercoolers flow air to the radiator and AC. The HP Kit seems like it has the biggest upside potential. Not sure about the TTI kit but it's in between I guess. I love the STS carb legal but I haven't heard good things about it and heard it's loud. Seems like it would be ridiculously loud since no mufflers.
Which one would you rock? Why?
Eventually I'll probably upgrade to a forged 402 with a stockish cam. Since I hit the road course occasionally and daily drive it I need it to be good for all around performance. Not just 1/4 mile at a time.

... eventually a Forged 402? Give George or Nick a call at TTi... the X kit... is proven to over 900 rear wheel if thats what you are looking for. I know of continuing improvements on this kit... it just best to call TTi.

Normally I would say to search, but it appears that you already have. I would personally go TTI or APS, although the noise isn't really bad with sts. I don't know anything about the HP kit.

We've had a system running on a auto trans for a few months now with good results. Installed and tuned by Dr. Phil. We are sending a second system to rpm tomorrow and a couple more to OCC next week. If everything goes well they will be released by months end. Look for over 1000 hp from the occ install, Be back soon. Made in USA
