Issues like what?

It had something to do with way to much backpressure. Here's more info.

Edit: "Yes, I have measured back pressure, it's not a pretty sight. My car is a '11 GT, 67mm Precision turbo that comes w/the Hellion kit, 38mm Precision WG that comes with it, running on red spring only which is currently netting damn near 10# of boost at peak even though it's rated for only ~6# (why do you think that is ? Other than that, injectors, colder plugs and BAP the car is stock.

Anyways, at low boost levels, 10# or less, I'm seeing basically a 3:1 ratio, so damn near 30# of back pressure. Wonder how long that turbo will last at that back pressure level? Oh, and the AR on that thing is .96, so no room to grow there."

"Fixes, I would recommend installing the O2's after the turbo. Back pressure is so high it is ruining any chance of a good tune. And I would also fix the down pipe to tire contact. K-member is rattling against the pipes."

wanna copy/paste for those of us without accounts... or even better the clif notes verson...

Those problems were for the 5.0 single kit, I just realized that it was a TT in the video. I haven't heard anything about twin kits yet. On the GT500 kits though the discharges from the turbos weren't well thought out at all.

Well, one of them was. hahaa

^^wow. Who the hell put that thing together?

Oh, it's quite the opposite - they were thought out beautifully. They were clearly designed to be reproduced.

The cold side merge, even if done with the aid of a fixture, would take hours to do and would likely have fitment issues, if it were done 'right'.

...with the way they did the production piece (assuming that's what's pictured) will take a hole saw and an indonesion sweatshop child laborer 10 minutes or so.
