Now that there are 2 twin charge setups here, any thoughts on getting some monster torque setup in addition to the HP up top?

LOL I wish the money received from the AVO kit will be close to break even, it won't be remotely close of now having 3 grand for another kit.

Hey @Sportsguy83 When you have your wheels off do you think you could quickly check fitment of the AP kit and then post it in the BBK fitment database? No one has done any kind of fitment checks on these wheels yet so it would help a lot!

Here is the link to the AP template if you are able to do it: http://www.essexparts.com/media/down...eltemplate.pdf

Thanks!

I promise you I will get fitment of the different kits, but it probably won't happen for the next two weeks

It might happen that I can take them in the weekend but no promises.

Turbo selection and location should be done in the next day or so, parts sourcing and fabrication should start immediately after.

GIANT SNAILS EVERYWHERE!!!

MUAAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA


Honestly the lack of room to upgrade the avo was the turnoff for me. Given my track record for mods I decided to get something to grow into not out of. 3rd times the charm right?

Main reason was being able to sell it for a great price that will allow me to have a kit higher ceiling than what the AVO turbo has.

Going for bigger turbo that's for sure. All details will be posted in due time.
