Default best f bod twin kit

I am getting back into f bodies from my c5 for a while, untill I get back from iraq next august, and am wondering what the best twin kit available is. I am curious about the aps tt kit, or the gen tt kit, any opinions are appreciated.

There aren't many twin 'kits' available. Most twin setups are custom made. Hopefully there will be some good feedback from the aps and gen tt stuff before long.

either the street tuna or aps, both look like great kits and pretty comparable/equal.

Thanks for those words.............we do attempt to build very high quality production twin turbo systems as affordable pricing for the mass F body market.

Link to APS web pages, hope that helps.

Thanks,

Peter

Why are there ramps under the wheels of that f-bod? is there ground clearance issues? I see the front rollers on the dyno already have a rollover ramp on them.

So we can drive the F body across the front rollers without bouncing the car around too much.............no problem at all with ground clearance.............you must be thinking about a different brand of F body twin turbo system.

I've followed the other thread on Gen TT's Kit and theres plenty of stone throwing coming from that camp aswell... so its only fitting that Peter throws some back once in awile.

im confident i made the right decision going with APS...cant wait to get my kit.

APS. Just compare the various pics of the APS kit compared to the Gen TT and the images should speak for themselves. The APS is designed top to bottom for the F body, the other is something a beginner can do in his garage with a mig welder and some piping. Since the ground clearance issues were brought up- just take a look at the clearance on the Gen TT cars- I can't believe they would sell a "kit" that plumbs like that..
