deep thought-----which turbo kit????

well it seems i will be sticking with my 03 evo, i wanted the new MR but i think i will be losing close to 6k on the deal. well i decieded to put in more $$$$$ to my EVO and well i want a GT35R turbo, i have been looking at the RNR. and thought well let me run this by my EVO brothers & sisters out there.
let me have some feed back 'cause i do plan on making my evo go over 700hp's .

You probably want to do a little searching. There have been tons of revies posted about all of the turbo kits out there. On that note AMS

If you are looking for 700hp then the GT35R kit is the way to go. Both our kit and AMS have had some great results. These are only two kits that I like on the market. Both perform as advertised, spool well and make power. Both get full boost around 4200rpm with the proper tuning.

i have looked at AMS an also RNR for months now, these are if not the top of the line kit's for the evo. and i do really look forward to buying one of these kits and the positive side of this there are really no negativaty going around about the kits and makers.
and bottom line is performance and results, and both kits are great in both areas. and this leads me to a deep thought, which one. come january (bonus time at work) one of these kits will be in my evo, but which one.
RNR you offer a lifetime warrenty on the mani, that makes me as a customer feel better.
just this deep thought i'm in, if i'm gonna spend 3,500-4k for a kit i gotta make sure it's the best for my lil' evo!

I can't help but be interested in AMS's smaller turbo kits. They are claiming low, low spool up along with real nice street power. Then again, I don't drag race.

YOu also have to check ou t the Turbo Trix kit. It is making awesome power. I am stuck between that one and either RNR or AMS. I posted a thread about this about a month ago, just do a search under my name as I don't know how to provide link to thread.

Decisions, Decisions, Decisions. I don't think you can go wrong with either our kit or the AMS. There are a bunch of other kits out there that you can go worng with in my opinion.

I have seen 3 kits now and used 2, HKS it works but laggy and cracks quicker than you can throw a stick at it and HKS dont want to know,
RNR worked well 675hp on race fuel on engine dyno the coating started to come off before dyno work finished but a good kit,this was a freinds car and he is happy and would recomend it,
AMS just got a kit after a few emails on the spec and testing they did all answerd my questions like pro's felt very happy with them and the kit looked good in the pict's they sent, Now I have the kit GT35R well all I can say I am very happy liked there approach with the wastegate set-up and the quality of the kit, It doesnt have any coating so I cant comment on this, The most Important thing now is its going on my car.

675hp sounds fun. Who was this in the US or UK. I was just trying to figure out who's car it is.
