Default turbo

i was looking at tmaturbo and was wondering how much a twin turbo kit would cost i tried contacting them with no response and if anyone could just give me an estimate, also is there an advantage of twins vs. single?

you could probably get a full twin turbo kit for about 10-12k. You can get a ****load more power with a twin, but your engine may not be able to take it. You also will need to upgrade some engine parts before you can put that much pressure on yours......I dont know very much, but wait for some advice from some of the other guys.

TMA twin turbo or single turbo kit's are the best. I have a single turbo kit from TMA. The twin turbo kit will not cost anywhere near 10K. Contact Andy at TMA directly, here is his aim name: tuxmask18

tell him Sai sent you. I estimate a twin turbo kit, with install from a professional shop not to be more than $6,000. Good luck.
