[Z06] Any TT kits out there anymore?

Any TT kits out there anymore?
Just wondering if there are still TT kits being sold out there? Seemed like APS/ ECS had a kit back then, but seems like they're not available anymore. From the looks of it, they're a nightmare to get installed w/ all the piping.
FI bug but me hard, and trying to see all viable options. I know ECS supercharger kits are being sold for a hell of a deal, so +1 for that.
Should I just stick to centri style supercharger?

TTIX, UPP, DKT and a few others. Plan on $11k+. I would have gone turbo a long time ago if there was a kit that I thought was decent but haven't seen anything that I would consider putting on my car.

Hennessey still does 800hp and 1000hp twin turbo kits...I'm sure they're not cheap. You can also hit up forum member TonyPittman...I believe he has a thread on here about his TT kit install from a while back.

Price sucks, and the install looks like a pain in the ***. Piping everywhere..
Also looked at the kits, and it seems like they have their own exhausts, from the manifolds to the tail end.

It is safe, but why spend $11k+ when you can do a blower for $5500 and max out the motor with ease. If you were going for 1200+rwhp then a TT kit starts looking good. Order an ECS kit and be happy. It can easily make more than a stock shortblock can take.

Agreed.... Stock engine with a TT kit dont really mix. We have done one and could not get the boost to stay low enough.

I have the STS Twin Turbo installed on my car with stock bottom end, ported heads, throttlebody, headers and made 612RWHP with 6 lbs of boost on a safe tune. I love the kit as it's a clean install and have room to upgrade when I'm ready. I bought my twin turbo used from NextLevelPerformance as it had 1,100 miles on it plus they did the installation so I walked out the door at a reasonable price.

Not all systems are $11K+. We're just finishing up on our Z06 system right now, should be ready in a couple weeks here. The nice thing about the turbo systems is they can grow with you without the need to switch head units, 8rib kits, etc.

On a stock kit almost 13... We stopped revving it around 8 at like 4500... We modified the springs an waste gates and saw 8 at 6k so i set his limiter there..> Car is from MD and still together almost 2 years later now but it wasnt easy.

Was this just on a "stock" car? No cam, heads etc?
