Is this a custom build for you? I know they have two different versions of their kits but haven't looked to in-depth at the turbo's that they are useing.

Going with one of TTi's kits does it require the hacking apart of the front of the car? Right now that is the only thing that would steer me away from it and go with something like APS's new kit they are putting together.
The TTi street kit requires no modifications to the car (other than supporting mods).
This is a deriviative of the race kit, the only mod required for this deleting the AC system. Also for this air to air intercooler, the front bumper needs modification but its easy to do. Keep inmind that this system with this turbo will be good to 1200+ hp.

Looks good and good luck with your project, Ryan! I was talking with Nick about doing a Y2K 88mm kit on my car, but he quit returning my calls, so I have a VERY nice twin BB 67mm kit being built elsewhere right now.
