Damn this is a hard decision also people are saying I will be dissapointed on the way the turbo will run with the atp back housing. What do you guys think about everything included in the kit. Do you think there would be anything I didnt like? Garrett gt35r Turbo kit, megan manifold,tial wastegate, downpipe, garret turbo with atp back housing, the turbo was polished

gt35r is a waste of money for a daily driver.
you can get the same hp from a smaller turbo for less.
now if you are gonna go all out don't waste your money on getting a smaller turbo

my car drives fine with the 35R. Like they say, go big or go home. Get a smaller turbo and a few months later you want more power

I understand your point of view as well as many others. The deal is I didnt want to spend 3,000+ for a kit.

I can get this kit for 2000. Then use the extra $1000 for injecters and stuff.

If you're going to use meth or race gas, the 35r is the way to go.......but if you're set on only pump gas........50 trim all day long........IMO

I agree

Not even close. The ATP kit is a pos and lags and is limited up top because of it's custome hotside. Don't bother with the ATP kits they are trash.
