I would say TTI X in either hybrid ball or journal bearings (cost dependent) and APS would be what most would suggest.

TTI by far has the largest installed base.

Search TTI and APS using advanced feature and you’ll find lots of information.

Oh PTS/PTK has allot of high HP potential.


Mike

Edit --- forgot PTS/PTK

There is so much info on the forum from past posts, your best bet is to do a couple of searches.

APS
STS
TTiX

I have the STS and really enjoy it. A lot of APS kits are being installed, but few results are back, TTi has a big following.

What are your goals for the system? All street, some street some track, All track? What engine are you putting the kit on? I recently did an APS mysel and i will tell you the directions are impecabble. The kit will be shipped to oyu in 3 boxes and 100% complete all at once. The directions are perfect step by step with all pictures and details. The TTi has the best/longest record around for TT's on the board. It is well know for putting down serious HP and has the biggest following on this board. The STS also seems like a good kit too! It has a decent following here and has given plenty of mile free trouble to many. Pick your poison! Dan

One thing I don't like about the STS kit is the noise of the oil pump.

I don't know if TTi or APS require one.

APS requires one, but trust me, you can't hear it, at idle or any RPM for that matter, in or out of the car!

If you want to see the install on the TTix kit, my car is featured in the latest Corvette Magazine with a multi-page shoot on the installation process which was done at Synergy.

Cheers,

None of the TTi Kits require an oil pump.
