Deep deep down somewhere. Maybe they beleive they aren't, but DEEP down, there is a secret nerve that these FFTEC ST buyers are worried, maybe not worried a lot, but a small bit of worry that they wish they had this kit. Its like a man who says he's not worried but finds out his gf's last guy had a huge d*ck.

Awesome pricing can't wait to see the numbers. Won't be jumping on the stg 3 but with the turbos blown def getting on the stg 2 just waiting for some numbers / dynos.

Saw on the other forum the list is already growing fast. Exciting development for the n54 community.

This is a good expected price for the first big twins kit.

I have no doubt SFValley or anyone who can weld can get this done cheaper though.

The first has the highest prices and that's just business as usual.

The competition will drive prices down and power up and its good for all of us. For those who want to save its good time to wait since we don't have the fueling nor tuning for these yet. Tuning won't be a problem but getting the fueling to support these can take quite long. I hope these sell well so that there is an interest for fixing the fueling issue.

Sometimes I wish I could posts on this forum, or rep points. There are so many to be handed out either direction in this tread, though most are certainly in the positive direction.

Great work Tony! Looking forward to further results and testing. You guys are working at lightning pace to bring a great product to us.

Tony, I emailed you just a bit ago after I saw the pricing on the stage 3 setups... Couple quick questions. Are all these different turbo options fit the same way? Meaning the 950hp option will fit the same way as the 700hp turbo setup? I would imagine that they must be bigger and I was just wondering if these fit right in like the lower hp setups you have posted? I'm running the JB4 G5 ISO with BMS Flash so do you think the JB4 will be in your tune preferences? The JB4 is just an amazing product and with my RB's and being FBO running e85, the car is very fast and I dont have one complaint about the RB's. Rob was the innovator on getting these stock turbos to be wicked fast! I can only imagine with one of the stage 3 kits what this car is going to be like

I personally think that for me, the VTR28RS (700hp) kit would work just fine. Nobody knows the limitations of these motors yet and I'm really not in the mood to be the one that finds out I'm interested in this option and the VTX-R60 Garrett GTX-R 2860R (800hp). These turbos are probably rated at the flywheel not the actual wheels im guessing...When you get a chance make sure you got my email as I want to get in on this good deal you have going on and would really love to be one of the first to have them. I'm looking for somewhere around 600whp to 650whp and think that with that much power to the ground, my car will hopefully run like a bat out of hell It already does with the RB's and the car is dialed in with the tune, supporting mods, E85. I'm very interested in these and have been wating for this day since the first day you posted something about upgraded twin setups. Hopefully I will be talking to you soon as I have a few questions before I go ahead and make the commitment. By the way thank you very much for spending the time and research to make such a kit of this quality.. You rock man and hopefully we can get a few things cleared up.. Nothing major just a little advice.

Looks like I need to go ahead and put the RB's up for sale Rob you did an amazing job with these turbos, especially how you upgraded it in OEM form. And for those who dont know, the RB's are absolutely AMAZING!!! I'm getting a little scared thinking about how much HP these VTT turbos are going to put down... Looks like if I dont want to break my transmission I better go ahead and start looking into upgrading it to hold the power and torque. BTW im in Dallas TX and there is a COBB shop that does PTF so everything seems it will be working smoothly, so far look forward to speaking to you! I cant explain how excited Iam about these stage 3's that you got together! Again, great job! Look forward to doing business with you

Big time.

The stock replacement, improved output & high output markets just got a nice set of new choices & the usual suspects are handling it very badly.

Did you jump in robc? I'm already looking at the lockdown kit and the subframe bushings threads you made, again. I already have traction issues, so Stage 3s will be a problem.

I don't have an email from you that I see. All 7 turbo options have exactly the same footprint. Meaning they are all the same size and fit in the same location. Wheel sizing varies, to change the Flow potential.

Don't think the torque ratings on the DCT's are all that high. 99% sure I will be going with Stg2.

Haven't had a dyno, and I can reduce the issue with the linear throttle map vs the stock throttle map; but it still spins a bit in the middle of 2nd on 275 PSSs with the Wavetrac. I'm worried what ~150ft-lbs more torque will do; perhaps it won't be so bad since the power won't ramp up so quickly. Stock turbos.... as far as I know. I keep finding little things here and there when working on the car. I bought the car lightly modded from a dealer, but I could tell some stuff was taken off and there was a AA AP2 installed on it.
