Default Champion Turbo upgrade

I thought while i was getting my camber adjusted at Champion Motorsports, I would up grade my TTS with larger turbos.

That's even better news.

Now we have to know: Which do you prefer, R8 V10 Plus or TTS?

my thoughts exactly...isn't the hp/tq supposedly similar between stage 2.5, champion IC, exhaust vs this upgraded turbo?

i just pick the car up and drove it from Champion to FLL airport. It definitely has more power. I get home today, and Saturday I am going to Sebring, so i let you know Sat/Sun.

I'd love to hear old vs new lap times!!

Also, pardon the personal question, but I'd love to know what the turbo upgrade costs.

Well, went to Sebring, car ran great 1st session warm up, definitely more power!
second session , 1st lap lost boost I had installed along with the turbo upgrade Champion Carbon Fiber Y Pipe, it was defective and cracked at relieve valve. Track day done
Otherwise: turbo upgrade is $5K + $1500 install
