The only thing i had to buy to make the kit work was 2 gaskets for downpipe. And a inline pump because i dont use their icu. What is also nice though is i use the icu only for the turbo timer it has and its also a electronic boost gauge.

Ok so does the blow off valve run from the same pipeing as your mass air flow sensor. So basically you just relocated the BOV towards the bottom of the car. Can you take some pics of like how you fabbed it. ya know showing where you put it and how. thanks mang

Take a look at the pics i have posted, the valve is towards the bottom after the intercooler ,its mounted in their piping and then my intake piping meets the tsi pipes ,leave the adapter on the maf u used for the intake app. though cause thats what the mix of piping connects to. Ill be back .

Rock falls isn't that bad of a track, I wouldn't go as far as saying it is ghetto, but yes, the starting line does need some help. You can run at other tracks (route 66) and maybe run .2-.3 seconds quicker, but that is pushing it. You don't like the track, don't go their. Easy enough?

I had read somewhere that there is such a thing as too big of an inercooler cause you will lose pressure or volume through it. Is this true?

/\ yes that is true...
I've been looking into this kit simply to save money, and I think I may go for it. How hard would it be to buy the superior kit and add the IC later? I'd like to do it all at once, but money is a big issue...

well, i wouldn't say that either, there are many twin turbo sets ups in other cars (skylines, supras, etc.) that have huge intercoolers and i'm sure there are intercoolers that are big enough to accomidate 2 turbos, im not tryinig to be a dick or anything, ive just never heard it being impossible to get a big enough intercooler for a car.

Looks like the kit that Mantaray sells is the same as the Turbokit.com kit and the team blindside kit. They are all TSI kits right?
