Default Garrett Turbos

Tired of failing KKK turbos and rebuilds and more failures. I want to put Garretts on my car. Has anyone had luck fitting Garretts without fabbing a total custom exhaust? Supposedly TIAL has a fix of some kind anyone have any experience with fittting Garretts?

Tials are bolt on with stock exhuast but the oil lines are far from plug and play.

Just buy my k24/18gs and be done with it

Slim chance, but unlikely I'm going back to KKKs

I'm very intrested in going this route. I currently have 18gs and would expect much more power below the curve with gt 28s. AMS sells the bolt on set for about 5k
I've been considering building a custom exhaust so I can use a more common turbine housing. And maybe external gates. I'm in the process of reaserching my options
spartan. how do you like the gt28 compared to the 18gs
