Default Oh Yea Twins!

I just put my deposit down on a TTi kit today and I will be joining the ranks of the F/I bunch. I am so excited I can hardley wait. I road in a 4 cylinder all wkeel drive Mitsubishi to get the feel of a turbo system. This is a 10 sec car producing 596 hp on race gas 650. From 70 mph it hit 135 mph between telehone poles...I almost lost it in my pants. I am still speechless and cannot explain what just happened. No one can believe it until you ride in a car that is turbo charged. That power adder definatly puts the Vette in a class that will run with the exotics. I just feel like I am rambling because of the exitement.

Looking forward to meeting some of you guys at Norwalk in May

Later,
The Big Dog

You are going to love it.

The TTi kit is great.

If you have any questions during the install, let either Phil or I know.

you are going to love it! I also have a 4cylinder AWD turbo charged mistubishi (EVO) and its a blast, thats my daily driver. The vette has a SC on it so the two different kind of FI keep it interesting for me

can't wait to hear your results.

Congrats! Do you have a forged motor or plan on forging it? If so, you can easily expect to see over 700rwhp, which is a fun, fun ride! 700+ in a C5 will feel quite a bit faster than the 600 you felt in that import.

I just joined the "700 Club" myself today with the TTiX The rush is just indescribable!

You will never go back to a N/A powered car again. Well maybe to get the groceries. Turbo is so addictive
