^lol

i talked to the TSI guys a month or so ago. They said they weren't gonna re-design their kit, but they said they would put it back up on the website (both of those kits listed are the TSI kit)

So that means to use that kit you are gonna have to do some custom modification, i think the only thing they never resolved was the downpipe, and you would need 2 more injectors, and some sort of piggyback.

I worked it out a while back. After it is all said and done with all the extra parts you need and paying to get it tuned, the price comes out to like $4 grand, So it just makes more sense to go with a stage 2 rrm kit, cos you will get bigger and more reliable power out of that


Run a search. there is TONNES!!! of stuff on the TSI kits

Hmm, That Tsi's kit don't look too good in my opinion, RRm's Turbo kit looks hella better.. RRM's product are little bit more pricey but Quality you can't compare!! You get what you paid for!!! but Sometime you can go with cheap stuff but if you are going to spend 2-4k i would definetly go with quality parts rather than crying later!!!

^well from the handful of people that have used the TSI kit, it is very good. Last i heard, one of the guys had been running his at like 9psi for 3 years with no problems. So the quality of the kit hasn't really been proved to be bad, it's just the extra work that is involved on top of the initial cost of the kit, you end up close to $4k.

i mean if you wanna save a grand it is a good option, personally i would pay the extra thousand or so and get a RRM kit.

Only TSI kits I have heard of running well have had a significant amount of custom work done to them to make them strong or reliable. Lets not start the debate though. Thanks for the compliments about our kits though.

I'm running the TSI kit for a couple years now on my 4g93 mirage. But yea there were some modifications to make it fit but that was mostly because this was meant for a lancer and not a mirage. Plus yea some parts were exchanged for better parts but they helped out alot and gave me credit for the pieces I wanted to replace. http://www.turbo-kits.com/customer_cars_3.html
