Default Ebay Corvette TT kit

All,


I was wondering if anyone here could give me some pointers on this one. I am looking to get a TT kit and figured I would check out Ebay and this is what I found. The kit is pretty cheap compared to what i have seen from the more well known dealers. Also I am looking to Get a 383 or 402 stroker kit to go along with this is that a good idea or not. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

there have been some discussions in the past about this kit. Do a search. Just know that the good turbo kits are that price for a reason. The same goes for the kit on fleabay. Fitment, quality, support, included parts, warranty etc. These are the things that you won't get from that kit. Just suggesting that you figure out what you're in for before you jump.

we completed this kit on a freind's c5 z06 and it came out awesome, no problems. it was installed on his stock motor and he made 503whp/520wtq @ 5psi. spoolup is really quick. i was going to install my kit but i had to hold off cause i might be moving to MD.

My kit works flawlessly and I am very pleased with it. But unless you are a hobby guy looking for a project...don't pursue getting this kit.

If you are not a hobby guy looking for a project I would recommend getting yourself one of the SC kits on sale, a TTIX or APS kit and go be happy.

Very involved,...lots of labor.

Like dude says,...if your not seriously into a project,...probably not a good idea to buy something like this.

(speaking from experience on the original kit this one was styled after).

Don't have this kit but I do own the PTK kit which this is a copy of. There are advantage's to each kit and this is no different. I still believe this kit would kick butt in a dedicated track or max effort setup.

If you're looking for a complete kit and one not needing some work/fabrication to complete, then this kit is not for you.

If you really want a topmount today that can be driven as turnkey, get in touch with NickYoskin

Yep. that's his forum name. Look in C6 F/I section for one of his build threads. Or just look him up using advanced search.
