[QUOTE="TRBO VNM, post: 7726054, member: 14678"] ok, I will do my best. lol about my setup....right now, eaton. my goal now is to get into the top 5 list from Ironterp as far as the fastest eaton. I am top 10 right now from the info he has gathered and he is pretty good about that. I eventually would like a twin kit, however, I did the credit card thing and equity line for my first setup. I am now finally getting all that debt paid off and will not do that again, so I am doing things slowly and with cash. Right now I was able to piece together a full hellion single pipe kit for about $1000. so I need an intercooler, clamps, couplers, wastegate and misc brackets/gaskets. I will also be running nitrous. on the turbo kits, right now imo, the Hellion and HPP are the best options out there. the hellion is full stainless with lifetime warranty on the piping and 1yr unconditional on the turbo's. comes with all 3-inch piping and standard with 61mm turbo's. you can downsize to 57's, but the price is the same. Customer service I believe is top notch. if you can't get a hold of someone at hellion, they have dealers all over the US to help out and as you have seen, I am on the boards often and do everything I can for everyone. their twin kit is easy to install and no rubbing issues with pipes on other parts of the car. the price is very reasonable and allows you to upgrade to some of the best suspension on the market.
