Tim, does the motor have to be pulled to install this kit?

as tim said the only modifaction that had to be made was to the drivers side. Now in the directions it states that you must hammer in the drivers side a little, but my case seem to require more massaging to get the turbo to fit. I'll post pics, reviews and opinions once we get it tuned. Other than that the kit fit well from what i understand. Its not that this is a bad kit( parts are of great quality), it just isn't something that is always easily installed in someones home garage (at least it wasn't in my case)

All the TT kits are more easiliy and accurately installed with the engine removed. Anything is possible, but I wouldnt recommend trying to install with the engine in the car.

We install about 70% of the kits while the engine is in the car.A real pain in the ***.Mostly with the haders.Once you get the headers on it is a beeze.

Cool. I like to do my own work. Plus I have access to a lift and any tools that might be needed. Time is the only thing I dont have much of right now.

Looks great! Good Luck. Staying tuned for some numbers when available.
400 is too easy with those 2 turbo's. I did 400 with just 1.
