Base AGP Twin Turbo kit $4000. About 10k miles on turbos. I am not wanting to ship, located near Dallas/Fort Worth Texas. I do not mind driving a few hours if needed. If interested, please pm.

The turbos are 54/57.
No Injectors or fuel pump, just the base TT kit. Does include heat coated exhaust manifold

One charge pipe needed "clearance" due to larger radiator.

Why did you remove? Just curious

My boost controller failed. Despite configuring max boost at 16.5 psi, my motor received 31psi and blew pistons at #1 and #2 apart. My fuel system held up but the piston/rods did not. My motor was stock, and without forged pistons. I never intended to be at that boost level.

Had I decided to stay with turbo setup, it would have been without the electronic boost controller.

I did not list the turbos simply because I blew my motor. I struggled with decision. I literally spent two months trying to decide how to move forward. Because I track my car, it simply did not make sense to go back to turbos. I have struggled with heat problems and NA solves alot.

I am trying to decide whether I want to go turbo myself. I am running an LSA setup making over 800 to the wheels and I am also in the middle of a full rebuild as I bent a rod at 16 lbs.

What boost controller were you running? And sorry to hear this. I am local and don't see many tt 5th gens out at the local drag strips here in the DFW.

Thanks graf101. GFB Geforce III - Ironically I wanted it for the "lean cutout" to protect motor.

An external boost controller cannot have a proper failsafe against a problem with the boost control itself, as it has no means of actually shutting down the engine.
It can only reduce boost, if the actual system is still in good working order. Which is a bit of a paradox.

Most boost control related problems are usually poor installation or setup
