This system is custom fabricated to the GT. No engine upgrade was done on this one. The race version we are building on the next one will have upgraded billet internals with billet main caps. WE look to make well over 1000rw with that one..

Thanks to all for the compliments.. Let me start by saying that this system with the Billet CNC intake is going to be $29,500. This system will have an industry leading 2 year 24,000 mile warrantee. There will be some options. The options will depend on what you are going to be doing worth the GT. Keep in mind like our Vipers these system will be one off custom fabricated to each car. We have always done this because there are nuances to each vehicle that can be accounted for as it is fabricated on your car.


Other options will be how loud or quiet you want it.. So we can do different things with the exhaust. We will have a nice line of turbo's to choose from again depending on what you do with it or you driving style. There are also ECU options.
When we started this project the first thing I wanted to do was a custom billet CNC intake. We had it made where we could hide the idle control valve, vacuum lines and other necessities that were visible on the stock set up. We were looking for a cleaner presentation which I believe we achieved.

There will be a few options on the intake as well to allow for personal preference.

1) CNC finish
2) Polished CNC finish
3) High show polish " which will remove the CNC marks."
One of the only problems with this system is that when you are driving you can't but help to stare in the rear view mirror and see the sunlight glaring off of the Billet intake and the Tial billet blow off valves, it looks incredible. I will post a picture from that view shortly.
We liked the Polished CNC finish... My preference was to match the CNC A-arms from the factory.. WE are also in the process of finishing up the CNC coil covers that will match the intake. They will say " POWERED BY UNDERGROUND RACING"
Like our Vipers all hot side will be heat coated and all cold side will be show polished. All piping will be stainless steel.
We will be starting on or 2rd and 3th GT soon.. I will keep the interested up to date on changes and upgrades.
We do carry the Penske suspension for these GT's and we are also HRE wheel distributors.
We plan to do some great things with these Twin Turbo GT's. Just like our TT Vipers, we are highly motivated to use the latest technologies and highest quality materials available. Videos coming soon.
Call or email anytime..
Thanks, Kevin Howeth

Nice info Keith.

Would you estimate a turnaround time for installation and tuning if someone wants to do this in the near future?

Set-up a LLC, it's a way to avoid taxes. There is a Lawyer in Montana that sets up LLC's for clients so they can avoid their state taxes on larger ticket items, or as an insurance policy to protect certain possessions. Anyone with a Montana LLC is considered a Montana state resident, just like any other resident, so you don't have to pay any sales tax.
