Default Do you Like your TN kit

This is purely a thread to see who is satified with their Turbonetics Single Turbo kit. I'd like to hear from people that have had thier kit for a little while now and see if you are happy with your purchase.

Try to tell me about the kit, not the install, cause a bad install could make any kit a disaster.

Now that my TN is running good, I would say If anyone is interested on moderate power this kit is awesome but if your goal is to be a dyno queen get TT! Your right, proper installation on any kit FI is a must!!

if turbonetics fabricated a tt setup.... i would be all over it! but for mow....my single jumps like i like it. i like my snails visible for all to see

...an im sure i will have better numbers upon block work and and bigger waste gate, int. cooler, and turbo swaps with fuel and tuning.... my long term plan....

it will be just as mean as the best of them... but then again im only looking for a consistent 500 wheel power

im a track guy... no queen here

I don't like to give up on things but this kit is pushing my buttons. But I'm sure TN's customer service will make me happy again.

After about 3 months I'm happy, especially with the new numbers and tune I only have about 6 months left on the warranty though ( kit sat for 3months ) so if anything is supposed to go wrong or break I hope it does it within 6 months...

I have had my kit for about 2 years and yes I have had minor problems but nothing to serious. When you go FI things are bound to happen. I like the fact that my car on 8psi pulled on George@GTM's APS TT g35. (i hope he doesnt get mad ) He will soon be kicking my *** though.

I have had my kit as well for probably 1-2 years with only minor difficulties. The install is key here I believe. So far so good and I love it !

I can see all the APS, Greddy, etc owners coming in here and voting "no". This poll will be worthless pretty soon...
