Default UMW stage 2a kit installed

This is going to sound familiar but WOW! these turbos rock! Did a stage 2a kit and a LWFW, GT2rs clutch, Miltek exhaust, The car is amazing and it feels like a even better Daily Driver than before, Can't wait to see what it pulls down Millers almost 1 mile long front straight to UMW and Kevin

Really like it, the engagement is perfect and revs much quicker and heel toe downshifts are really smooth and fast. I also did a gt2 master conversion and Tatum racing had just done a electric power steering conversion to a gt3 so I got his pump and tank for 300.00 bucks put the master where it would normally go and separated out the two systems.

Kevin is installing the same stage 2A and clutch kit on my car this week. Just got off the phone with him and he is bolting the wastegates to my new turbos as we speak. The wait is killing me!

Gotta tell you guys.... I just got mine installed this week and realized there is really nothing special about Kevin's Turbos. Its the little Demon he puts inside of them you have to worry about.

You guys are killing me. I am in line for the 2a as well. Can't wait, but your stories are making it all the better. So glad I had Kevin do the flash. So, for the folks who have the 2a, did you flash first, or go all the way? Kevin says the difference is buttdyno is about the same from stock to flash, as it is from flash to 2a.

Love reading this...Picked up my car from my mechanic today and he told me that my car is, and I quote "WAY FASTER" than any GT2 he's driven. Kevin's turbos and "Stuff" are nice!!

Enjoy and be safe!
Mike
